The wrong finger

I've been beaten up over twenty times when I tried to hitch rides.

I always used the wrong finger and the people had my hide.

I accidentally used my middle finger instead of my thumb.

I've been beaten senseless many times because I'm so dumb.

People tell me that I should be able to tell the two fingers apart.

I dropped out of school in Kindergarten, maybe that's why I'm not smart.

When I got the crap beat out of me yesterday, it made me hurl.

It was very embarrassing to be beaten up by a six year old girl.

When I told my mom about this, she let out a great big chuckle.

Those people kicked my ass but at least I did bruise their knuckles.
