Really interesting results! I've got my appendix and tonsils.

how do you know? 😃

@wa7iut Good question! I don't remember any operations to take them out, but memory is faulty. And I might not have had them when I was born. I'm still well over 95% sure they're still in here.

@evan down to a single wisdom tooth, but otherwise got all that stuff

@evan I have appendix and tonsils. I was born without the ability to make wisdom teeth. 😅

@brennx0r that sounds like an evolutionary advance

@evan it’s at least 5% of the population - same percentage of folks who have hazel eyes

@brennx0r TIL!

@evan my appendix came in crooked. The surgeon said it would negatively affect my appearance - I would have the appearance of a bloated corpse. So they removed it, for cosmetic reasons.

@evan wisdom teeth: only half of them: I had 2 that were growing straight, 2 crooked so the dentist decided to let the straight ones live their lives.

@evan "still have" implies I originally had. In a quandary as to how to answer for body parts never part of me?

@RedRobyn if you never had them, you don't still have them.
