Nose and ear hair. I got on just fine without it when I was younger.

Any ideas why eyebrows stay dark when my hair is grey silver? Not sure if the Alistair Darling look suits me.....

I think my eyebrows are there in case birds run short of nesting materials!
hmm

Can't you get dandruff in your eyebrows too, though? confused

To stop dust and dandruff falling into your eyes was what I always thought.

I always thought eyebrows were there to stop sweat running down into our eyes... ?
I'll Google it.

And nails stop your fingers and toes from fraying.

Male nipples stop your chest from fraying says DHtchsmile

You got me thinking so after I'd looked up eyebrows I moved onto finger and toe nails. Equally fascinating.

I've got two of them, you've probably got two. Eyebrows, I was wondering why we all have these apparently useless appendages. So I googled it, lots of pages (I leave you to do your own research, it's interesting).
What other appendages do you wonder why we have them, surly only useful things survive evolution, or do they?
(Ok, I do think of some weird things)
