Shabby Me
The length of my fingernails is entirely determined by the tradeoff between
a) looking unkempt due to having long nails and
b) the increased difficulty in nose-picking resulting from short nails; this leads to me having my finger up my nose for much longer periods of time, which is also socially unacceptable.
After a stern talking-to from the facilities manager today, it has emerged that various members of the department have taken me for a barefooted homeless man who sneaks into the Thom building to use the shower. Disturbingly close to the truth.
