They are little pieces of torn skin around your cuticles and it’s usually because your skin is dry. Mine is dried to hell from painting and washing my hands constantly. Plus, it’s winter and my bony hands just get dry. One time, I held my own hand and I was like, DANG. It’s like holding hands with Skeletor!

Anyway, I digress. It’s SO unbelievable how this little sucker can cause one SO MUCH PAIN.

And, the only way to get rid of the pain is to get rid of IT!

Only, I’m at Starbucks and I don’t happen to have my handy dandy cuticle cutters on me.

Not even nail clippers! But the pain is just unbearable, so, I have to just suck it up, hold my breath…and…

YOWZERS!!!! Fucking shit fuck damn!!

I use all the might I have in my thumb and pointer finger to pull the sucker out.

That FUCKING HURTS! (and I’m even bleeding a little. See? Blood.)

But, it’s still better than leaving the dang thing there and feeling the constant throbbing pain of a hang nail.

Pulling hangnails out hurt like a mother at first, but, then at least it goes away.

Ah, much better.
