it’s like I have glands under my fingernails that secrete filth. Doesn’t seem to be but about a minute from when I scrape the crap out to when they’re dirty again.

I was a nail biter for 30 years, and then one day, I just stopped. I have no idea why nor reason. I still have one thumbnail that is deformed because I’ve hit it with a hammer so many times, and a pinky nail that breaks every time it grows past the end of my finger, but I am boggled by the fact that I can’t seem to keep them clean.

Aftr a week soaking in the waters of Lake Huron, they stay white for about three days, then back to normal again.

I think i need a seven billion dollar government grant to study this phenomenon.
