My fingernails always sneak up on me. I never look at them and think “Hmm, looks like I should trim these in a day or two.” It’s always “Whoa! I should have trimmed my nails a week ago! How did this happen? Did I eat some sort of magic nail food yesterday that made this happen overnight?”

Also, nose-picking will become much more hazardous.
Will not lie, this took me awhile to understand.
Same here! Before I read the text, I thought that Biff had grown monster claws, and that something was growing from his face as well (but I looked at the computer from some distance then).
If Biff’s phone has voice control… Then I wonder what Biff’s voice would sound like! Because I have always imagined him as kinda silent…
And also, many things in my life would get way more difficult if I had long nails like that. How would I be able to sculpt with Fimo clay? Or draw things? Or hold a coffee cup? Or use a computer mouse (the nails would get lodged into the mouse mat)?
My nails are most often about an inch long. o.o Then they’ll break on something and slowly grow out to an inch again. Right now, I’ve got five long fingernails, four short and one that’s long according to others but short according to me. x’)
People are always asking me how I can do stuff with nails that long, but you get used to it. I feel handicapped when one breaks. o_o The biggest problem would be zippers, though. Biff must be using buttons in his clothing. And never pick things up. o.o
Do you mean that they are an inch long starting from the “root” of the nail, or from the fingertip? I’m just wondering…
That’s odd. Certain activities, like typing, actually help fingernails grow. Or at least makes them stronger. At that length, shouldn’t his nails be starting that freaky curl you see in those Guiness Book record holders?
meanwhile, picking ones nose becomes a favorite pastime…
“I got this scar on my face during a mighty struggle.”
“We’ll maybe you should stop picking your nose.”
*Well maybe
