Out of Ten  

Probably only 5 out of the 10.
If I can see them without getting down on my knees I will pick up the strays.
Otherwise they stay until I vaccuum again.
Stiff if someone walks on them.
EEEwwwww no I have never ever nor will I ever bite my toenails.
Now I may nibble someones toes after they have bathed, but Yuk no biting toenails.

I guess we all can remember some kid or another who used to cut his toenails and bring them to grade school to nibble on during arithmetic class. Those kids must have had serious vitamin deficiencies. But I love technology, so I bought one of those clippers that traps the clippings until you are done and then neatly deposits them in the trash. How about that?

Congratulations on finding a new topic, I think.

Hi CurlyRed,:)

I do my best to find all of mine, and usually place a towel on the floor to 'try' to catch them. After this, I flush them down the toilet. If I see any strays, I'll pick them up by hand, but they're easy to miss. No, I've never been a toenail biter ... yuck, or a fingernail biter either, for that matter. I think Transdisc started a discussion about toenail clippings, a long time ago, but it wasn't the same as this.

I never even try to look for my toenails after I gnaw them off. I like to see how far I can spit each one out. The big toenails usually go the furthest.

That's funny you should ask this now, I just came in from cutting my toenails!! I go outside in the grass to cut my nails, that was I never miss picking one up....Lori

That's really a good discussion. You are right, it,s the first time I ever seen it lol.
I maybe find the half of my toe nail after clipping it. I think the only one who found them all is my boyfriend because he use a kleenex when he does it lol

When I was young, I was bitting my toe nails. When I'm thinking of it right now, it's just disgusting lol

Actually it never occured to me to do an inventory on my toenail clippings. I just sweep or vaccum up after i'm done and don't give it another thought. Have i ever bitten my toes? not that I can recall. Sounds a bit gross, really. I'll be curious to see how others here respond.

I get so happy when I clip a huge piece of toenail..I feel kinda sad letting it go when i put it in the bin..I think from now on i am going to keep them.There so cool in their own way!!

Your a hero for starting this Discussion!

i cannot tell you as my partner insists on cutting my toe nails and hair.

she collects them all as she is making an effigy of me made from wax with my hair and nails.

she is from Hiaiti and she says this is traditional.

how romantic!

I MUST gather all the clippings. I count to make sure that there is ten. I pile them up as I cut them and keep them in a neat little stack. I get pleasure out of cutting the big toes nail. I haven't cut them too short in a long time but have in the past. I don't care to repeat that again.
As far as fingernails, I'll admit that I follow Trans method of biting them off and spitting them as far as I can. I often bite them too short and regret it later, but the thrill of spitting the nail outweighs the pain of a nail that is bitten too short.
I cannot bite my toenails but my son can.
Bite his toenails that is. Its not very much fun to watch, but he seems to enjoy it.
