poll: cutting nails in public/work gross?

[andsoitgoes]

It's gross.

I can say that? Yes, because I've done it in emergency situations and it skeeves *ME* out.

What's worse, guys picking their noses and spearing it on the walls of the bathroom stalls.

/shudder

Okay. Toenails are mildly more gross than fingernails. Clipping your fingernails, over a trash can, is perfectly acceptable. If I have a meeting with you, I'd much rather you clip your nails in public than show up with long, unkempt hillbilly nails.

However, am I the only person in the last 10 years to have discovered the clippers that collect the clippings so you can dump them in the trash after you're finished?

I dated a girl for a while who came in while I was clipping my toes on the bed and she was all, "WTF?" And I was all, "It's cool, the clippers collect the clippings and then I just empty it into the trash."

I find it hard to believe that these only exist in my hometown.

On the other hand, of all the disgusting things people come into contact with on a daily basis, are we really most concerned about nail clippings?

Think of all the shit you touch on a daily basis that gets under your nails. There's no way it's not disgusting.

Is it gross to chew on nails too?

[andsoitgoes]

Depends. Your nails? Your mom's nails? Homless guy's nails? Rusty nine inch nails?

[awesomesauce]

My own nails, it is a boredom habit. I have always wondered when it is appropriate and when I am grossing people out, but sometimes I don't even realise that I am doing it.

chewing your nails is bad enough, but whats worse is the crunching noise that goes with it. And when your done, do you spit or swallow?

I see what you did there.

I'm not sure if disliking public nail clipping and enjoying things up your pooper go hand in hand (so to speak), but I voted yes.

It's fucking disgusting.
