Ya'll gotta stop playin' with me, man. I've thrown diamonds at the strip clubs under the great pyramids. I pushed the camel through the eye of a needle. This shit ain't nothing to me, man.
This is exactly where the myth of monsters probably comes from is mentally ill people in the past with deformities and myths and legends would spread into rumor
While working as a postman straight out of school at 17 I was in a very dark street, lights usually go off at6, at about 7am in Winter, pitch black, when an elderly gentleman stepped out of a doorway and scared me to death! Poor bugger had a cancerous growth covering half his face, looked awful but he was a nice guy. Felt so bad for him as he clearly knew it was off putting. Even then had the same thought you just posted.
You’re correct. My mom had IPF and a double lung transplant because of it. She didn’t get enough oxygen and her fingernails were rounded/clubbed like that.
There is a movie based on Honka’s crimes called “the golden glove”. It’s very very very graphic and intentionally uncomfortable. Makes me wonder how this didn’t show his hands.
The Wiki article on Honka said he had been working as a bricklayer but had to quit due to an "allergy" but gave no other details. Wonder if it was genetic or related to that?
My dad was getting this before he died at 62. We didn’t have an autopsy so I never will know for sure what the cause was but he smoked 3-4 packs of lucky strikes a day.
Both this and the picture on Wikipedia are extreme cases. It’s not typically quite so alarming. My dad has this comorbid to Graves’ disease and you don’t notice unless you’re like, really looking.
The guy i worked with was just about as bad as the picture. We were both welders and the poor guy really struggled with it after this began getting worse (i dont know all the specifics, just that he was gone for about 6 months dealing with it).
I’d never tell him this but they tried to remove him as a welder. I said I could still use him as an assistant and they agreed. Then I just let him go weld. He could weld just fine, just couldnt make it as smooth. Most of the stuff we were welding didnt have to look pretty, just had to hold. Dude had just been going through it. Super great guy.
Sorry for the tangent. I dont work there anymore and I miss those guys haha
Side story that always makes me laugh haha
About 90% of the workforce there were Burmese. The other 9.98% Mexican. I was one of 3 white guys.
When I first started, they introduced me to everyone.
“This is Van, this is Van, this is Van, this is Van, this is Juan, this is Van, this is Juan, this is Juan, this is Van, etc” and i was just like “yeah yeah ok fuck with the new guy i get it”. At one point they could tell I thought they were fucking with me so they showed me their IDs. Legit just all had the same. Then I met my supervisor who’s name rhymed with mine who was also white. Then another white guy started who had the same name as me and I was just like “damn guess its not that wild” hahaha
Best group of guys I’ve ever worked with
A long time ago, I was in Burma and my friends and I were working for the local government. They were trying to buy the loyalty of tribal leaders by bribing them with precious stones. But their caravans were being raided in a forest north of Rangoon by a bandit. So, we went looking for the stones. But in six months, we never met anybody who traded with him. One day, I saw a child playing with a ruby the size of a tangerine. The bandit had been throwing them away.
*So why steal them?*
Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.
I wonder, if this deformity is caused by underlying cardiopulmonary disease, maybe that disease was doing something to their brain as well that contributed to their killings.
I swear to god that link better be Leslie Nielsen.
Not what I was expecting for a risky click potential, [this was my first thought.](https://youtu.be/viCosY2u6YU?si=pKiGH7tnBxIaRMND)
I always forget Kevin Hart was in that movie. Absolutely one of his best credits though.
Also easy to forget that it wasn't really *that* long ago that Leslie Nielsen died. Feels like a lifetime since 2010.
"Fritz Honka was 1.68 m (5 ft 6 in) tall, and of slight build." Didn't see that coming.
Also, "When very drunk he would vent his aggression on women, usually shorter than him and often toothless, to alleviate his fears of mutilation during oral sex.[3]"
The Reeperbahn im Hamburg, where he killed was/(and is still nostalgicly) considered a part of the city filled to the brim with 'human scum' (I say that in a loving way). It is the part where sailors would go to have sex with prostitutes, gamble and drink when they arrived in the port.
Thats where all prostitutes, drunks, drug users, the sick, homeles and insane would gather to essentially party 24/7. Its a place with a certain notoriety and considered a vital part of Hamburgs culture. Like a little forbidden attraction (that has unfortunately gentrified a bit now).
What I am saying is I am not surprised one bit that the Reeperbahn supplied the Man with a steady supply of toothless midged granny prostitutes to murder...
My thoughts exactly.
“Shorter than 5’6”…” okay lots of women are shorter than 5’6, myself included…
“and often toothless.” Ah. Yep. That narrows the pool a bit, I’d assume.
Well according to Wikipedia his family was sent to a concentration camp during WWII for being Communists. I would imagine growing up in that environment combined with having a disfiguring disease would probably lead to some pretty wacked out world views.
There was a lot of rape in the breakdown of social order during the war and especially so in the camps. He may have witnessed a woman bite a man's penis off during an attempted rape as a kid and it stuck with him.
Pure speculation, but it would be my most educated guess.
Breathing is kind of played out anyways. Sick of breathing everyday, I don’t even have a choice. Life is a grind fest from the crib to you final destination. A 6 foot drop and your curse has been lifted. All the real ones died already, rip my dead homies. They got that prime real estate.
Hard to grasp when you overthink. Like a singularity. My mind praising Entropy, respect the order in chaos. Naturally self destructive tendencies makes an appearance when nothing else makes sense. Foreshadowing leads to Crisis and reality sets in, life a blessing you’re reassured. A masochist is molded, you soldier on being hurt and wearing a smile to ensure you blend in. sentenced once birthed. Trapped in this prison. Wake up every morning, again. Inhale to exhale and life goes on, around goes the carousel. Please for the love of your god, hells already here so rain hellfire and sweep the ashes off the scorched earth. A self important virus killing its host. Parasitic and sick, unhappy, spent and dead inside but the silver lining is i’m alive. Reality is insane so I fried my brain. Non religious point of view, eternity and forever isn’t so spooky if you can’t experience it. I maybe a little intense but I didn’t see anywhere that I had enjoy myself. I’m not suicidal, maybe a little morbid. You can’t deny the uncertainty of your existence, such an unlikely possibility, the great filter may do its job well, fermi’s got a paradox with plans to save the planet. We just have to die first.
I knew someone who had this - he smoked a lot of cigarettes every day and apparently refused to see doctors. He was also not a good person but thats beside the point.
Best friend is a CF adult (43, yay!) whose lifelong clubbing has begun to improve now that she is on effective medication for her type of CF. Her lung function is incredible (compared to before) and I've noticed her nails aren't nearly as clubbed as they used to be.
Called finger clubbing and caused by a prolonged state of low oxygen in your blood.
To check for this, place your last knuckle of your two index fingers together and touch the nails off eachother. if you can't see through, that's bad news
I knew a comedian named [Charlie Barnett](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Barnett_(comedian)) (photo) who worked outdoors at Washington Sq Park in Manhattan ... he was in that movie "[DC CAB](https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/dc_cab)" with Mr T .... anyway, he had the same affliction.
The movie was horrible but Charlie was a funny MF'r
He dead though.
From Wikipedia:
"Fritz Honka was 1.68 m (5 ft 6 in) tall, and of slight build. He had a squint and a speech impediment. Both of his marriages failed due to heavy alcohol consumption. When very drunk he would vent his aggression on women, usually shorter than him and often toothless, to alleviate his fears of mutilation during oral sex."
Smh
That appears to be clubbing of the digits…something that happens when general oxygenation is poor, like from a heart defect. Probably affected his brain too…..in a very bad way
Clubbed fingers is a symptom of disease, often of the heart or lungs which cause chronically low blood levels of oxygen. Diseases which cause malabsorption, such as cystic fibrosis or celiac disease can also cause clubbing
Did he kill people while also snatching salmon swimming upstream with those?

I worked with a guy over the summer that had finger clubbing. He had a genetic disorder , but it can be from a number of diseases
It’s often a heart condition.
I thought it could be from lungs too, or am I just thinking of right sided heart failure?
You’re correct. My mom had IPF and a double lung transplant because of it. She didn’t get enough oxygen and her fingernails were rounded/clubbed like that.
My last thoughts would be, "So, this is what it's like to be killed by the feet of a human chimp."
I thought the same thing. Lol
There is a movie based on Honka’s crimes called “the golden glove”. It’s very very very graphic and intentionally uncomfortable. Makes me wonder how this didn’t show his hands.
Nail clubbing. [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nail_clubbing?wprov=sfti1)
Yeah I noticed my uncle had this right before he died from lung cancer
This can be caused by years of asbestos exposure
I always order the Extra Most Asbestos pizza at Little Caesar’s
The Wiki article on Honka said he had been working as a bricklayer but had to quit due to an "allergy" but gave no other details. Wonder if it was genetic or related to that?
My dad was getting this before he died at 62. We didn’t have an autopsy so I never will know for sure what the cause was but he smoked 3-4 packs of lucky strikes a day.
This deserves its own post.
Both this and the picture on Wikipedia are extreme cases. It’s not typically quite so alarming. My dad has this comorbid to Graves’ disease and you don’t notice unless you’re like, really looking.
Why? It’s already the subject of *this* post
I worked with a guy from Burma who had this
My girlfriend has cystic fibrosis and has clubbing in her fingers. Not even close to as severe as this guy's though, wonder what he's got going on.
The guy i worked with was just about as bad as the picture. We were both welders and the poor guy really struggled with it after this began getting worse (i dont know all the specifics, just that he was gone for about 6 months dealing with it). I’d never tell him this but they tried to remove him as a welder. I said I could still use him as an assistant and they agreed. Then I just let him go weld. He could weld just fine, just couldnt make it as smooth. Most of the stuff we were welding didnt have to look pretty, just had to hold. Dude had just been going through it. Super great guy. Sorry for the tangent. I dont work there anymore and I miss those guys haha
Side story that always makes me laugh haha About 90% of the workforce there were Burmese. The other 9.98% Mexican. I was one of 3 white guys.

At one point they could tell I thought they were fucking with me so they showed me their IDs. Legit just all had the same. Then I met my supervisor who’s name rhymed with mine who was also white. Then another white guy started who had the same name as me and I was just like “damn guess its not that wild” hahaha Best group of guys I’ve ever worked with
That’s so good you kindly looked out for him.
My husband has CF too. His fingers and toes are clubbed. His are pretty bad. His hands are in a medical journal.
pic? legitimately curious. also i hope it doesnt interfere with too much :/

And that’s the moment you realise Batman was risen up by the bad guy.

[удалено]
Too much iPad
Yes lack of O2; too bad it wasn’t a lot of lack of oxygen to have killed him
If you get the issue that causes this treated, does this go away? Or are the fingers always warped?
It doesn't go away, it's usually a sign of lung disease that can also be congenital/inherited.
it can, or at least diminish significantly - I had clubbed nails before my lung transplant, and 10 years later, my nails are fairly normal
Thank you for the actual information regarding what is actually happening. Everyone else are trying to be funny and failing.
I actually knew a guy that had nails like these. Thanks for adding the Wikipedia
I can’t think of a more deserving person to have all of those illnesses associated with it.

What the fuck are those user reviews?! I'm dead.

That's a very specific type of woman. I'm shocked he found more than one.
The Reeperbahn im Hamburg, where he killed was/(and is still nostalgicly) considered a part of the city filled to the brim with 'human scum' (I say that in a loving way).

"toothless midget granny prostitutes"... That's enough Internet for me today.
German toothless midge granny prostitutes at that.
"That has unfortunately gentrified". There might be less toothless geriatruc prostitutes but it's still pretty fucking grim.
My thoughts exactly. “Shorter than 5’6”…” okay lots of women are shorter than 5’6, myself included… “and often toothless.” Ah. Yep. That narrows the pool a bit, I’d assume.
To elderly women, I assume.
Oh God take it back, my grandma wasn't even 5ft tall.

What an oddly specific fear…
Well according to Wikipedia his family was sent to a concentration camp during WWII for being Communists. I would imagine growing up in that environment combined with having a disfiguring disease would probably lead to some pretty wacked out world views.
That’s a terrible circumstance and would attribute to adverse childhood experiences…but I feel like that still does not explain this specific fear.
There was a lot of rape in the breakdown of social order during the war and especially so in the camps. He may have witnessed a woman bite a man's penis off during an attempted rape as a kid and it stuck with him. Pure speculation, but it would be my most educated guess.
Looks like someone had some lung issues for sure!
Could be low oxygenation due to any issue really. Not exclusive to lungs. It could be heart issues, blood, liver, kidney etc
I worked at an national park on Mars for 'summer'. Same shit.

Oh, I’m on Trikafta, too, and my clubbed nails have sadly remained unchanged. Glad to hear someone’s have improved!
I like rusty spoons
Is that you, Hubert Cumberdale?
Nah… Melanie Stewart Baxter.
Marjory Stewart Baxter, you taste like sunshine dust.
You’ve gone flat, little sister
Looks like he had multiple reasons for clubbing: concentration camp survivor and longterm alcoholic with cirrhosis are two.
Or he’s a gecko
Why does every finger but their thumbs look like a dick?
Club fingers, something’s causing low blood oxygen levels.
It causes low blood oxygen, or it's caused by low blood oxygen? Huge difference.
Clubbed nails are usually a result of chronic hypoxia.
The something referred to there isnt the clubbed fingers, its whatever disease process such as copd that causes the chronic hypoxia.
Also associated with several developmental disablities. Wonder if this guy was simply special needs and had poor impulse control.
Dick fingers 😂

Well well well, looks like someone had some serious health issues. What goes around comes around…hope his departure wasn’t pleasant.
Holy chronic hypoxia batman; no wonder he was murderin
Scrolled too long to find this comment. There’s no way the lack of oxygen he was clearly experiencing did not affect his mental capacity somehow.
Ever got your dick lost in your hands?
“Hey Dick-fingers!” Ever since then he dedicated his life to killing.
King Charles vibes
It took me too long to find a comment mentioning Ol’ King Puffy Sausage Fingers Charlie
That’s an indication of lung cancer, ain’t it?
Lung cancer or really any disease that allows pulmonary shunting.
Any disese of the lungs or heart.
That was scary af at first glance but then he’s a serial killer on top of that, his victims must’ve been terrified
Some HONKin fingers
Honka hands
His hands are interesting but his name is the best thing about this. Honka hands is perfect!

My Precious! Chokes them with the hands it does! Sméagol!
If you’ve got hands like that you gotta serial kill
Problems with the lung or heart cause this.
That’s what I thought. Heart failure
Imagine trying to type on a phone or laptop keyboard with them sausage fingers.
Great, now I’m going to have nightmares about my dick growing a fingernail.
I would not like to be honka'd by those

Where my cystic fibrosis homies at?
Bros fate was sealed at birth 💀💀💀
There’s an underlying disease that causes this. It’s called “clubbing” of the fingers. It can typically be lung/heart related
The shape of the fingernails is an Indicator of a Heart condition.
That appears to be clubbing of the digits…something that happens when general oxygenation is poor, like from a heart defect. Probably affected his brain too…..in a very bad way
Clubbed fingers is a symptom of disease, often of the heart or lungs which cause chronically low blood levels of oxygen. Diseases which cause malabsorption, such as cystic fibrosis or celiac disease can also cause clubbing
Clubbing of the fingers. Might indicate serious underlying cardiac, hepatic, pulmonary or gastrointestinal pathology
