      They could have succeeded in domesticating the toenailnibblosaurus for this very purpose.

        I have, on more than one occasion, knocked my little toenail clean off, and each time the experience was absolute ****ing agony.

          I was wondering a similar thing about shaving. How did they shave? It must have been a slaughter using only sharp rocks.

          And don't tell me they didn't shave, they certainly did.

            That's weird. Didn't happen to me (the agony part). But in my case, it wasn't knocked off.

              When nails get infected with fungus, they don't grow that much.

                  Not nessecarily - flint knives are actually razor sharp.

                    I go barefoot around the house all the time, and while the first couple "knock offs" are very painful, each subsequent incident was less. Nerves damage, I suppose.

                    ...

                    Of course, the pain of breaking/dislocation that often accompanies it is still as breathtaking as ever.
                    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

                      Got ripped off, wore off, or chewed off.

                      I guess I could just call Gieco and ask them.

                            My friend June had recurring problems with ingrown nails on her big toes so she had them removed.

                              So cavemen had them removed...how? I think that's the question.

                                It might help with the toe nails if we could figure out how they cut their finger nails...
