Fingernail Clipping Etiquette - Page 3

**Donger** · 03-07-2006, 09:50 AM

So, I was patiently waiting on a plane yesterday. That "paperwork" can take quite a while sometimes. Anyway, I noticed that my fingernails were in need of a trim. Naturally, I pulled out my clippers and began clipping away. Apparently, the gal next to me didn't like that I was doing it and called for the flight attendant. He said, "Ummm, sir, that's DISGUSTING! Will you please stop?" I told him that I would once I finished my other fingers. He muttered something under his breath and flittered away.

This wasn't the first time I've clipped my nails on a plane, but perhaps that's wrong? Do you ever clip your nails in a public place?

If I were the person sitting next to the Donger as he trimmed his nails, I wouldn't have said anything, unless he left them around or one flicked on me....then I'd have just sprayed a 1 finger Turbo Farmer blow at him and called it even.

Chics do gross stuff in public all of the time...Filing nails isn't much better than trimming, plucking your eyebrows...might as well wax your moustache while you're at it lady.

Do you know what gets under your nails every day? Besides, you lost a vote when you ceased all hygenic activity last fall.

What the hell do chicks do in public?

If End is already resorting to that at his age.....he's a dedicated drunkaholic. I guess thats one way for him to pass the breath test at work....as long as he doesn't fart. The Russian Shift supervisor would smell out his gimmic for sure.

I knew a guy that would soak tampons in vodka while still in the appliactor and then insert the tampon into his ass.

Bob Dole didn't cease all hygenic activity last fall. Bob Dole still bathed daily until February 1.

Yes. I'm just not there very often. And, when I'm there, I'm not usually thinking about fingernails.

It's the airline's fault; if you make me sit on at the gate for an hour, I'm going to make use of the time.

No. I wasn't collecting them. They went wherever they went.

It is about the same kind of gross....

Ha! Hadn't considered that.

You should have saved them and shoved them in her mashed potatoes later.

FYI the fact that fingernails even grow is horribly annoying. I hate clipping my fingernails. I generally feel the same way about hair growth and taking dumps. All of these things are inconvenient. I just might be the world's laziest person.
