nobody can steal your fingerprint without cutting off your finger

You're sure about that, are you?

Stealing fingerprints

"I once blew hot air across a fingerprint reader only to have the last person’s fingerprint oils re-activated to allow me to successfully logon as them."

And stealing fingers

My work colleagues - and others - often make the remark 'beam me up Scotty' when they find out I'm a paid-up Trekkie.
I only found out myself a few years back but I do take delight in chucking a little factoid their way....Kirk never said it. There are variations on it but after 79 episodes, the animated show & six movies, he didn't say the famous line. It has been, apparently, tracked to a 70's car bumper sticker : Beam me up Scotty, there's no intelligent life down here...

So there you are, a free pub quiz factoid

Some guy on Twitter says he's just seen Thelma & Louise. I didn't even know they're still alive.
