I was getting a new mobile connection. I bought a hand set and for the sim I had to provide my thumb impression just to match it with my Aadhaar records. This guy had to keep trying as my thumb had no impression or whorls. It was smooth. He kept on trying all my fingers and finally got the finger print of my pink or pinky finger. The fact of the matter is as one gets older the finger prints or whorls disappear. But these guys at the mobile stores have a ball. I wonder if they pretend when it comes to hands of young women I know this guy was not pretending with me

I didn't know that. So my fingerprints are going to disappear. Perhaps there is still time for me to rob a bank.

I did not know it myself until this experience. And now I keep reading or even tv channels talk about it.

That's news to me, but I've just looked at my own fingers and it's true that some of them seem quite smooth. Does that mean that some of us oldies can commit a crime and get away with it???

That thought did not occur to me. Strange my friend's thinking went in that direction

Oh lordy well make sure you guard that finger well and do not chop it off when you are cooking! I wonder what would happen in that case!

That's news to me! One would think hard work would wear fingerprints down.

Just check and see if that has happened to your fingers.

@DianneN Why do you need your finger prints each time you want to open your phone? We need them only when we buy a new phone/sim.

@allknowing My fingers still have fingerprints, otherwise I'd never be able to open my phone.
