Do you bite your nails?

[BurnItDwn]

Yes, It's the easiest way to trim the fingernails. I'm sure people have been doing it since we've had fingernails.

Fingernails are only one of a myriad of nervous habits for me. Some of them I shall not divulge. The ones I will: biting finger and toe nails; biting skin off the tips of my fingers; biting skin from inside my lips; grinding my teeth; and rubbing my tongue all over the tops of my teeth, further wearing them down (you'd be surprised). There are many more which have some level of grossness attached to them, and you shall be spared.

Yay anxiety disorder!

i don't. when i see someone else biting their nails it makes me think they aren't so bright.
the amount of bacteria under fingernails is disgusting. not to mention worm eggs can be present. eat it up, yum.

hmm, i've never heard that urban legend before.

No but I'm sure I have other habits, some of which I might not be aware of, that others find totally disgusting.

[narutofan36]

[otispunkmeyer]

i do and have done so since i can remember, i usually do it when i have nothing to do...ie sat in lectures listening to the lecturer.

i do it pretty much all the time, unless my hands are doing something.

guess i just get fidgity and cant keep still....always gotta be moving

 

[Atheus]

But if I stop biting them I'll have to cut them...

i used to bite my nails until mom put some polish on my nails to avoid from biting (it tasted so nasty) which made a progress to stop. it pretty worked on me well.

Biting your nails leaves them unpresentable. You know your nails are the second or third thing women look at. 1st and second is face or 'package". I think when they are looking at your nails they are looking at the size of your hands also.

If you bite them just go over them with a file. Some of you little ones can just steal your moms 🙂

 

[JDrake]

Nope...

 

[Suspicious-Teach8788]

Are you serious? There are so many people that do?I quit in like 4th grade, but SERIOUSLY I thought I was the only one that did it... danggggg. I guess Is hould be proud of myself.

Not in public, obviously, but yes, when I'm looking for something to put into my mouth, and my fingers are all used up, the toes are a possibility. Added... um, "flavor", too. 😛
