Today, I was clipping my nails. When I got to my toenail, the whole thing somehow ripped right out. I'm in agony. FML

Today, I was walking in my apartment when I felt something stab my foot. Thinking it was a piece of glass, I looked down. It was one of my roommate's toenail clippings. FML

Today, I was in a rush, so I was removing my nail polish while using the toilet. Everything was going fine, until I used the toilet paper in my hand to wipe. It was covered in nail polish remover. It still burns. FML

Today, I was at the orthodontist. As the lady was clipping my brackets, she missed and clipped my gums instead. She looked at me and said, "Oh sorry, you're bleeding really badly. See, I got these fake nails put on and I guess I'm just not used to them. Let me try again." She missed. FML

Today, my girlfriend, her grandma, and I were leaving her house to eat lunch. I stubbed my toe on the door while exiting. It hurt, so I stood there shortly in pain. I heard my girlfriend's grandma call me a "pansy". I later saw blood and took off my shoe. My whole toenail had come off of my big toe. FML

Today, I was on autopilot, walking out of the bathroom, and separated my pinky toe from the rest of my toes over the door frame. I dropped to the ground in pain, and my toe and half my foot still hurts hours later. FML

Today, I saw a news story about how wearing flip-flops is dangerous. I scoffed at the ridiculous study and went about my business. Three hours later I accidentally ripped off my toenail. While wearing flip-flops. FML

Today, I dropped some food on the floor and picked it back up, took a bite, and quickly realised it had toenail cuttings in it. I never cut my toenails in my dining room. FML

Today, I tried to get a piece of glass out of my big toe. After an hour of poking and prodding, I finally got it out only for it to fall on the floor where I couldn't find it. Not five minutes later, I stepped on it again. FML

I cringed reading this, I can only imagine your reaction when it happened. Bandage it up, and may your pain be short and negligible. Sorry this happened OP!

I guess going toe-to-toe with your nail clippers wasn't a good idea.

I highly advise against ever becoming a pedicurist. On second thought, probably best to steer clear from giving manicures as well.

Who's asking to become one? I think I can cut my nails without labeling that as a manicure/pedicure.

next time try to double-clip the part you wish to clip to ensure they're detached from the rest of the nail before pulling it out, it works :)

Which toe?

That's relevant because?

Not relevant because the OP clearly only has one toe.

Sunday 4 October 2015 20:24

22, that's how it's written, yes. And it's relevant because I think this would be a lot worse for a big toe than a pinky toe.

Sorry OP. I've had that happen with my little toe nail. Take Tylenol and soak it twice a day in hydrogen peroxide to keep it clean.

Today, I checked for the third time this week if my package that 'arrived' five days ago had been found.

The package is my new phone. FML
