10 Completely Stupid Things That Everyone Does (Even If You Deny It)

8. Picking Dirt Out Of Your Nails... Using Your Nails...

Peter Griffin Nails Gif Even those with immaculate grooming habits probably do this. You examine your hand, find a thin black layer of dirt under your fingernails and then forcibly attempt to extricate it... Using your other, cleaner, fingernails. What this means, in real terms, is that you trade one messy fingernail for two, as you can almost never get it all out in one go. You then attempt to get the crap out of the other finger, using, you guessed it, yet another clean finger... Come on, that€™s living-in-trees-monkey-minded behaviour people. You€™re supposed to be smarter than that.

I am a professional author and lifelong comic books/pro wrestling fan. I also work as a journalist as well as writing comic books (I also draw), screenplays, stage plays, songs and prose fiction. I don't generally read or reply to comments here on What Culture (too many trolls!), but if you follow my Twitter (@heyquicksilver), I'll talk to you all day long! If you are interested in reading more of my stuff, you can find it on http://quicksilverstories.weebly.com/ (my personal site, which has other wrestling/comics/pop culture stuff on it). I also write for FLiCK http://www.flickonline.co.uk/flicktion, which is the best place to read my fiction work. Oh yeah - I'm about to become a Dad for the first time, so if my stuff seems more sentimental than usual - blame it on that! Finally, I sincerely appreciate every single read I get. So if you're reading this, thank you, you've made me feel like Shakespeare for a day! (see what I mean?) Latcho Drom, - CQ
