Bite them off or file them down with a rough edge??

You can trim your nails with a sharp knife.

Digging in the sand (to make sand castles) will also do it.

I can just peel mine off when I can’t find the clippers. The others just naturally break off when I hit something.

He bit them, of course. I don’t think they worried much about hygiene back then.

He sanded them down! Wasn’t he a carpenter or something?

A piece of sandstone would work very well. Would that Jean Auel would write about that period of history and then we’d know.

He scratched the devil out of them.

If people didn’t know how to cut their fucking nails back then, there probably wouldn’t even by a humanity right now.

He did not. He had massive claws when he died. Rumor has it, the Romans used his own claws to nail him to that tree, because they ran out of nails.

He turned his nails into wine.

Vigorous wanking, this became difficult after the resurrection due to the holes in his hands, so the nazarine, being a resourceful bugger, gave himself blowjobs instead.

@ucme Oy vey! I didn’t think you could do it but you have surpassed yourself in tastelessness.

ucme's avatar

@janbb I’m sure you’ll get over it & maybe even yourself, who knows.

janbb's avatar

@ucme Not bloody likely but who knows? Stranger things have happened. :-)
