A very short parody of The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde inspired by the White House’s search for doctors who can give Trump medical cover to prematurely reopen the economy.

The Pinky Toe Joint Theory is a Total Lie

In Boku no Hero Academia, Midoriya Izuku is told that he does not have a quirk because he has an extra joint in his pinky toe, something that those with quirks do not possess.

This is an absolute lie. (sources at bottom)

*cracks knuckles*

To start, in Gray’s Anatomy--a book published in 1858, far before the theoretical advent of quirks--Henry Gray writes, “On occasion there are only two phalanges in the little toe and, rarely, this is the case with the other lesser toes.”

Furthermore, an article published in 2012 by the Foot and Ankle Society records researchers in the UK looking at 655 foot radiographs. What they found was that nearly 45% of research subjects had only one joint in their pinky toe. 

(In the screenshot below, bilateral radiographs refers to having radiographs of both feet)

Weaknesses of this study included that they were from a single hospital, but given that the researchers believe that their chosen subjects were representative of their local population, I think this should be considered. 

After all, if nearly half of humans in the world now already have that “deformity”, I find it hard to believe the world before quirks in the BNHAverse was free of this pinky toe variant, suggesting that the doctor that told Izuku his diagnosis was--for lack of a better term--full of shit. 

BONUS: A radiograph of someone with only one joint in their pinky toe.

Living an honest life while con artists and quacks who self-proclaim themselves as chronic disease experts with no medical training or certifications whatsoever, such as Anthony William, aka the Medical Medium, annoy me so much.

I understand why he has a following. He's believable and has several books out available for purchase. He's been around for a while, and people are desperate for answers because modern medicine and medical treatment have become part of politics, and we don't know who to trust anymore (at least in the USA. I can't speak on other countries and governments.). Wearing pink for breast cancer is a money-making machine for manufacturers. The breast cancer industry is huge. We've been close to finding a cure for a long time. Imagine if the cure actually became a reality. Think of all the events, pink products, professional athletic jerseys, etc. where most of the profits go to companies, while a small percentage of proceeds go towards research. It's no longer a cause, but an industry. Keep us ill to keep the cash flowing in.
