On a semi related note, I am seriously considering becoming a teenage mutant ninja turtle.
I was in Walmart yesterday looking for nail clippers and you gotta go into women's cosmetics to get them. So I finally find them and this large black guy was getting a pair, I figure he's done so I casually step in front of him to get a pair. He slams his clippers into his cart and angrily says "excuse ME" and I step back and give him a friendly "sorry, bud" which he ignores.
All this over $2 nail clippers and decades of slavery, sheesh.
If you had ponied up a few more dollars you could have gotten some Clyppi's from amazon.

This also showed up in my search.

Somewhere in this thread is a discussion of my travails in the world of nail clippers.
Long-story-short, I lost some - tried a bunch of different ones - none of them cut the mustard and I was living a life of tragic disappointment - I didn't realize how much difference nail clippers could make - finally found the old ones and life is perfect again.
There is not much I can tell you about the ones I love so much. They are just some super-old nail clippers that are perfect for me for some reason.
About all I can say is, there is nothing that could be offered to me in a straight-up trade that I would accept. I could see myself actually killing a man over them.
I committed something of a boner this morning.
There is a woman who works here who has one arm and a stump on the other side. Arm is chopped off above the elbow.
So anyway, I tore the end of a fingernail and it was ragged so I wanted to snip it off below the tear. So I needed some snippy snips.
Harmony was always my go-to person for those but she is off on mat leave now so I was asking around and I asked stump woman.
Stump woman did not have fingernail snippy snips.
What is stump woman going to do with fingernail snippy snips? Think about it dude.
I don't know what she does about the nails on the one hand but she sure as hell doesn't operate clippers with the stump.
Fokkin boner right there.
