3. Okay, now she has the use of her hands back.
I hope she wasn't injured in the crash. If only her nails were broken I am very happy for her. :)

10. She was ejected from the vehicle, so her injuries aren't trivial

30. Of course she wasn't! How the heck would she handle the buckle???
For that matter, how does she do ANYTHING that requires the use of hands?

4. Ewww is right.
I don't understand why women wear long nails and then type with their finger pads.

Baffles me totally.

But then, there are quite a few things that women do that baffle me, like wearing heels, and I'm a woman.

:wtf:

9. I am right there with you.
I don't understand why people willingly impair themselves.

28. Yup. I call 'em "StoopidShoes"
For a couple of reasons. The deliberate impairment, for one thing, while they're wearing them. But mostly, the long term health effects. Ask any othopedist or foot doctor what keeps them in business. I also love to torture women in heels with the details of my mother's surgery to remove neuromas in both feet, caused by wearing heels as a young woman. It's a pretty gruesome surgery.

18. I wonder how many bottles of fingernail polish it took to paint them?
It seems like spray paint would be an option.

20. Yuck!
I'm sorry. That's just not attractive to me.

I"m sorry for the injuries though. She probably went her whole life growing them out.

24. Why would someone deliberately cripple themselves like that?
It really makes one question her sanity or emotional stability
