I try for in the shower, or outside if the temperature is tolerable. Too often if I try to cut my nails over the trashcan, pieces wind up flying everywhere. They're quite unpleasant when they get stepped on and get stabbed into the bottoms of my feet.

Wuss. Real men chew/spit their toenails.

Usually while I'm sitting on the couch. I always throw the clippings out, so it's not a problem.

One time, in class, there was this guy who was clipping his nails when the Professor was lecturing...

Bingo. My gf doesn't like that tho, she insists I go into the bathroom to do it.

my toilet bowl and sink are right across from eachother in my bathroom, so while I'm on the bowl, I'll clip my finger nails into the sink and just wash them down the drain.
