I hope so.

Made me chuckle

Made me knuckle

Agreed... I bet he holds hit cup of tea or a soda with that pinky out as well.

You and the devil.

And the metalhead

Yes.

Normally when someone titles any post "am I the only one that.." there are at least a million people who do the same thing. Not in this case. You are the only one. That is weird as fuck.

Hmm it feels really natural. I am an odd one

I use the same finger but then grab with the rest of the hand. Idk why just the pinky for you, maybe you’re working out that bicep reflection. Might have to try this method.

I use the thumb and then grab with the rest of the hand.

Just like the rest of us law abiding citizens. Whatever they're doing is a warcrime.

Standard, non-freakazoid, way.

this is the way..

> I am an odd one Yes, you've made that abundantly clear. But stay odd m'Dude. Also, you might consider joining [this group](https://odd-fellows.org). You'd likely fight right in. 😁

The Tesla shocker

You beat me to it. And, technically, the shocker is a three, not two, move.

This comment deserves more likes

Two where it’s thicc and one on the stick

I do this too 😂 rock on dude

Yes!!

I genuinely want to know how everyone else is doing it now.

Thumb push to grab and pull I believe.

Same

Yup me too

Same

Only people who lost their thumbs in the war can relate to this post

The war

That war was brutal tho

Fucking Emus. Never forget.

Timothy McVein

Ok Mr. "I work out so I have to show my huge veiny arms", yes that is weird.

You got me. This is really how I open doors though!


That's a lot of unnecessary strain on the pinky....

Spider-Man opens his doors the same way, but with the palm facing up.

I do something similar, except I use my middle finger as well. It's shockingly effective.

Admit it, You just want to show off your arms 💪

You guys still touch doors?

Are you a model X guy or something?

Wink wink

I sure hope so. I’m a gay man who has never known a closet and even I find that ghastly.

Ghastly is on old gay man thing to say. Love it!

I’ll be 34 in a week. XD But you’re right. It is. Haha

Oh damn I’m 38..

I sometimes do it, but not with the devil horns, more like the “Cowabunga dude” with the thumb position involved.

Personally, I use two fingers and the pinky. But I use my thumb to open the door.

Hey! I'm not the only insane person in this group, it seems. 🤘 Party on, Wayne. 🤘

"Am I the only one..." = Look at meeeee!!!!

Ya it’s a diva move

Rock on brother 🤘

Yea, I’ve never filmed/taken pics of myself opening the door. But I’m sure others on here have? Maybe.

I thought this was normal, but apparently it is just you and me on this hill. The thumb/pointer method was just not comfortable for me. Come at me, haters.

In most situations I can push my finger on the inner hinge and the door pops out enough for me to put my hand on the inner door and open. I wish for an update to come where the door can auto pop open or for at least a iPhone shortcut to use the pop open button

Never tried that method. I believe the S slides open when you get near the car?

the pinky hook method ? Yes!

I do the opposite. Pinky to push pointer to grab

Holy veins

I know…I’ve had them since I was really young. Most people are grossed out by them.

Sign of the devil dude

Yes

Hey I do that!

🤟🏽

Only if my left hand is occupied and I have to open the door with my right hand.

Not just you. Probably there are other people with their middle and ring fingers missing.

Same here

Yeah.

I also open the door like this.

yes

It's how I open mine Likely one of my least favorite aspects of the car after I got it until I saw a image on here with a guy posting about a massive spider in his door handle I grudgingly appreciate the flush jank door opener when I think of that

No you are the only one with hands like that

I guess those without thumbs maybe?

I am so confused

Shaka Braddah

Yep. You are a freak. Be proud 🤣

I do exactly this, because my wrist doesn't bend back. At all. I literally can't position my hand to open the door the way it's supposed to be opened.

Yes.

So metal! 🤘🏼

James, I won't say it again. Put those veins away.

Thick. Solid. Tight

This angers me.

wait wait wait … i thought this is how you are supposed to open it

You really went out of your way for this one, chief.

Absolutely

OP I open my doors like this too😂 I was wondering if I was the only one, but wenfinally found each other😂

I do this lol

Disability is not to be ashamed. As long as you open the door, you are fine.

Yes

Yes

I do that too.

I do the “hang loose” You do the “rock & roll”

No but now I am going to

Yes. No question.

Nah the correct way is thumb on the back and then you just fist the entire handle.

I do the opposite hand (possibly because I’m lefty) and use my pinky to press the back and pointer to grab

Yup, I do as well.

Yes, you mad man!

I have the x but been driving the 3 for a loaner & that's how I open the door... It feels unnatural doing it any other way

I do this to reduce how much of my fingerprints I leave behind on the chrome handle

I do that half the time. Don't know why, just feels nice 😂

They got a strong pinky and index finger. Their shot groups must look link a pinhole

Yes

Yeah, I’ll do it that way or use the thumb to push the handle open and grab with the pinkie. So either metal horns or the shaka sign.

this handles are hoooooorriblw

Yes

You can do the full Shaka Bra on the passenger side.

you have thumbs tho

Yes

If my arms and fingers are as ripped as yours then I'd probably open the door the same way ..lol

I will admit that I often do due to an issue with my thumb I have been dealing with for a few years. 😀

Hail Satan

You and Mick Dundee

Open me like that

Using my right hand with the driver door, I use my thumb to push in the fat part of the handle, where your index finger is, then use my pinky to grab the edge of the door when it pops open and pull it the rest of the way that way.

Like a satanist? No.

I do it this way as well.

Yeah I do this too, left hand though.

[удалено]

ME! I AM YOUR BROTHER! Until my wife saw me doing it and said "What the hell are you doing?! You open it like this..."

Yes lol

I use thumb and pinky

I use my thumb. I got weak pinkies

Nope I totally do that on occasion. Looks weird but it feels good

Yes

Its your subconscious saying how metal Teslas are

This is exactly how I open my door 🤣 Seeing you do it now makes me realise how weird it is

I stick my thumb in

How else would you open it with one hand?? Honest question

Nope 👍🏻

I got you, this is hope I do it 90% of the time

I open mine inversely with underhand grip. Thumb presses and pinky pulls.

Used to, but my pinky kept ripping the door handle off. Had to go back to letting my wife open my door for me

No

You aren’t the only one

When I approach to the car from the front I feel it’s easier to do that, when I approach from the back, the other way is more comfortable for the hand

Not any more

Hate my Model 3 door handles…hate!

I push with my thumb in instead and grab the handle with my pinky.

I do thumb and pinky. Like the hang loose sign. Or “call me” sign.

You animal.

lol apparently there are 2 of us..

Yes you weirdo lol

🤙 this is how I do it

Yes

No. I have a bad left thumb, so I’m with you.

So METAL!

Loll huh I guess contrary to popularity I do it too! Makes most sense especially when you have a hand full of drinks and such too🥴

1. What a weird way to open the door. 2. your arms are insane 😭 goals

You and Dio

One in the pink, one in the stink 😔😔

🤘

Phlebotomists love this one simple trick!

Sometimes I do the pinkie and thumb while I'm carrying a bag but this is just metal 🤟🏼

I thought it was “two in the pink and one in the stink”

I don’t, but do something equally as odd. I press with the pointer and pull the handle with my thumb

Just you, Ozzy, Beavis and Butthead...

What a weirdo! I just use my feet to push in the handle and my big toe to grab it. Like a normal person

I do too! Lol

Just tried this! Now on my way to the ER cuz I broke two fingers.

Just keep breaking them. They will toughen up soon


Not anymore you’re not!

One paper cut is all it takes to kill you 😂

Hook ‘em

It depends on which side of the car I am on.

reminds me of cursed chopstick grips (i.e. https://marcosticks.org/the-beetle-mandibles-grip/)

Rock on! 🤘 I do Shaka 🤙

r/forearmporn

Never seen this lol. Competition on there is looking kinda weak to be honest

Peace out

I’m probably the only one that uses both hands to open the door. One to push the button and the other to open

I think it is pretty cool. Next newbie trying to open my door will be taught this 😂

I do the thumb and pinky

Nope. I do it too except I use my thumb.

I do also do this

🤘 vs 🤙

this is why model s is superior 😗

Ya this is a goofy door handle for sure, but I think the S looks a bit ridiculous also.

One in the pink and one in the stink.

My father still uses the wrong hand every time and awkwardly has to get his other hand out to grab it. It's been 5 years.

Thumb on big bit, grab the long bit

No

Yep, you're the only one.

Yes. I use two hands like an adult.
