So I came upon the notion that guitarists have longer fingers on their fretting hand versus their strumming hand. Sure enough, each finger on my left are about 1/8" longer than the ones on my right.

Still, this may not necessarily be a guitarist thing. Just curious if anyone else has differing finger lengths. And if you do, do you think any activity you practice might contribute to it, as I think playing guitar might for me?
 
Funny, I never noticed it before, but the fingers on my left hand are slightly longer than my right hand. And I'm assuming that my left hand is the dominant one; I do better in sports with my left hand, but I write with my right hand (as well as using the mouse and strumming the guitar). Probably because I just learned it that way
 
I'm not going to check. If I do, it'll be like finding the bad pixel in a new monitor, and I'll never again be able to not notice.

Or when you notice the constant squeaking of shoes during a basketball game... you never stop hearing them again... and it drives you nuts.
