  • I still did for a while after that, though I think I tried to be a lot more careful. A couple years ago I started to wear clear teeth aligners to straighten my teeth, and I couldn’t really bite my nails while wearing them. Since I had to wear them 24/7 for 6 months I ended up losing my nail biting habit entirely.



  • I got a pretty bad infection on my thumb years ago from biting my nails. Doctor had to remove a chunk of infected tissue/pus or whatever it was using a scalpel. He tried 3 times to do local anesthesia, didn’t work, so finally he said he just needed to get it done. It was the most agonizing thing I’ve ever experienced.


  • I hate Tesla as much as the next guy, but this article lacks any context and makes some assumptions about malicious intent. Are these the only articles removed, or did they purge a bunch of articles from two decades ago? Maybe these articles were stored in a legacy database and someone finally decided to clean it up, then the media is twisting it into “they’re changing history!”

    (Disclaimer: I’m speculating heavily here given my lack of context, so these may very well have been removed on purpose due to their content)








  • For Christmas I bought a box of Ferrero Rocher chocolates, carefully unwrapped each one, replaced them with brussel sprouts, and wrapped them back up. My wife’s reaction was priceless as she went from pure joy at the gift to absolute horror. Of course after we had a laugh I got out the container of chocolates and gave them to her (they’re her favourite).
