Mister Jack Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Would you rather have to date a woman your age who always looks like a 12 year old or a woman your age who always looks like an 80 year old? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 80, obviously. You'll catch her up in the end and after that she'll look younger than you forever. 12 starts creepy, and gets worse from there on out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. GOH! Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) I've lost fingernails and toenails in accidents and even after the initial pain of losing a nail was gone, the tender tops of my fingers and toes would hurt whenever I accidentally knocked them into something even lightly. Maybe that pain goes away after a while, but it was a good couple months before my big toenail grew back to a point it wasn't unpleasant. Ultra runners are bizarre masochists, but the pain of a badly regrown toenail is 1000000000000000000000000x worse than the pain of having no toenail, so I guess I understand their choice to remove their nails. I mean, one of my big toenails grew back very, very badly after I lost it in a canoeing accident, and it was gross and excruciating until I had surgery to correct the issue.

TheMightyEthan Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 One of my sister's friends dropped something on her toe about 5-6 years ago (the friend's toe, not my sister's), it turned black, fell off, etc, like you might expect. Grew back fine, but the weird thing is every once in a while (maybe 3 times since the incident occurred) it turns black and falls off again for no apparent reason, then grows back just fine like nothing happened. It's really bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 I've lost a toenail before. Was pretty gross when it was just barely hanging on. Hasn't come away since though... Personally, didn't cause me pain. Did feel weird af when I touched it though. *shudder* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Don't look up nails of survivors of Hiroshima/Nagasaki then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 I lost one of my fingernails this summer from closing it in a car door. Didn't hurt after the first few days though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Ooh is this the thread to share our nail troubles? I lost 1/4th of my finger nail on my left middle finger, because I pulled on something there, it hurt but I ignored it for a week. Had to get surgery to halt the swelling but had to remove the infected part of the nail. The doctor wrapped it in a thick bandage(?) after and I had to keep it elevated. I looked like an idiot giving the finger to everybody. Grew back fine though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Would rather... ask "would you rather questions" or talk about nails? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
