I’ve got issues with this as well, not for how my nails look. I’m a guy and work with nasty stuffs in my spare time so I regularly have black edges. But I can’t stop myself during boring meetings, I need the stimulation to keep myself focused, which I’m kinda ok with but I end up with my pocket full of pieces of fingernail and the idea that some people find that gross…which causes stress, which causes me to pick at my fingernails more…

Maybe once a month, I’ve never actually witnessed it, I just sometimes find traces of what looks like a feathery murder scene. And she sometimes brings me a (dead) bat…

My weekend mornings are doing it for me this summer. I just sit in the garden watching the birds, and my cat running after them, while I drink coffee for at least an hour.
