Stop growing longer? Yes. And when you get much older your whole body will shrink a bit. Plus they can always get fatter or skinnier! Nobody is gonna bug you about how accurate your tattoo is though. ;)

No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Adam Savage has a ruler tattooed on his arm. So I'd guess if it works on an arm it works on a finger.
I will finally be available to fairly and accurately measure all the men in the gym locker room without being suspicious and bringing in a ruler 😤
Username checks out
As far as I am aware only your nose and ears keep on growing, nothing with a bone in it does.
That's a myth, you know. Noses and ears don't keep growing, they just sag.
Is that why your mom doesn't grow boom roasted
That's her WITHOUT growing!?
Man, fuck the haters. I giggled
I have no answer for you, other than I'd guess they stop growing the same way everything else does. Some changes but probably nothing drastic.
I mainly am commenting to say I love how absolutely stoned you are/were, and I'm happy for you to be that level of stoned.
If the old people in my family are representative of the general population, your knuckles will keep growing and your fingers will start to bend at odd angles, and will seem to grow longer as your hand meat recedes. The skin will get looser and the ruler lines won't be as accurate. Also, finger skin doesn't hold tattoo ink that well, so it will probably be a messy blur by the time you have significant physiological changes to your hands.

Sounds like arthritis runs in your family...
as your hand meat recedes.
That isn't meat LOL, it is fat.
There's some meat in there.
If fingers didn't stop growing, you'd think most people would have hands like E.T.
No. Yes.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !highdeas@lemmy.world
