How would we all adapt? What would happen to the world?

The entire human race would be useless. We couldn't communticate, because we could not speak, write, nor use sign language. We couldn't really drive, work, play instruments, use cellphones, typing would be difficult, we couldn't fly airplanes, etc. Since there's no traffic, there would be no need for traffic reports, which would be impossible anyway without tongues. In fact, radio and TV would disappear altogether. So would books, photography, painting, etc. Without people to drive, gas wouldn't be a necessity, and Quick Trip would disappear, because you can't hold their cheap fountain drinks without thumbs. You coun't even tell them what pump you're at. But since you can't work, you can't give them money either. If you're in a wheelchair, you're REALLY screwed. You really couldn't even get dressed, so we'd all be naked. You couldn't commit most crimes without a tongue or a thumb, so there would be no need for police. Without money you can't buy matches, natural gas, or newspaper, nor pay for electricity to power your stove or Christmas lights, so there would rarely, if ever be a fire, so forget the firemen too. Politics would be useless without a forked tongue, and Kim Jong Ill couldn't fire any more missles, so we don't really need a government. We wouldn't need schools, cause teachers couldn't speak or write on the chalk board.
Worst of all, you wouldn't have a thumb to hold the carb on your piece. You would just suck air.
So we might as well all just lay down and die.
Well sex would be good for the lazy people, cause we wouldn't have to worry about foreplay or talking afterwards.

No more oration with "tongue in cheek"
No more babies "sucking their thumbs"
Disappearance of coffee mugs
No more victory signs "thumbs up"
No more "twiddling thumbs at work"
Thinking will stop "no twiddling of thumbs"
Want more? Disastrous.

opposible thumbs is what made us evolve up the ladder of evolution, we could not use tools or other things and would eventually go back to being neanderthal idiots!

we'd be screwed, and my cats would go hungry because I couldn't open the tuna cans and kitty food.
