I'm pretty sure you're not referring to the hangnail, and I've never heard of the term "quick" but the more official term you'll find for it is "cuticle". I've known people who get bugged so much by thesebliebblob said:A cooky for this post, and another for whomever can tell me what they are actually called. I've been having way too many of them as of late so I wanna learn what's causing them, and how I kill 'em. I can't do either without a proper term to google.
In other words...
Also useable as caltrops inside a tabletop rpg game. It has come up. It was moreso one of those games where 'You are playing you, and your only weapons are those nearest to you' type of affairs. Given it was games night, big box of assorted dice. Saved a person from getting tackled by a crazed mass murderer.dohnut king said:Try stepping on a four sided die, useable in a variety of rpg's or as caltrops.
Arthritis. You'll understand when you get older.
Any artificial scent. Having worked in a bath and body place where we only use natural fragrances, it's especially painful. Especially when people walk in and say "Oh I never usually walk in to these places, they always give me a headache" and then I have to futilely try to explain why our stuff is different. Nobody understands lab scents are what cause headaches and reactions...Lufia Erim said:Lavender sented ANYTHING. Real lavender smell amazing . Anything with the added sent of lavender smells terrible. Air freshners, dish soap , laundry detergent. Absolutely horrid

You know what's funny. I am one of those people who avoid places like that. They do give me headaches.

OT: medication whose side-effects are worse than what you're taking them for. Like getting your guts wrecked by antibiotics and crapping yourself inside-out for a day when all you were suffering before was a mild ear infection or the like.

Me. That person would be me. Last week specifically. Do you want to see a grown man cry?

I read somewhere recently that they polled women who have both given birth, and had kidney stones, and it was a land slide - Kidney Stone were worse by a mile. So, congrats I guess - You've experienced the most painful thing a human being can go through without losing a limb or liquidating your guts.

Roads and highways around here are designed by overpaid idiots, and they're constantly "being worked on". Gas is expensive just because it can be. All it takes is one moron to fuck things up because we're all traveling on a relatively strict two-dimensional plane, which is also a complex conundrum some people just can't seem to figure out. Just thinking about it increases my heart rate.
