Jesus, perhaps an angle grinder would be more appropriate?

No what you mean though, my big toenails are hard as fk.

Chuck Norris hard.

Try doing them after you have had a bath, then they will be softer.

Mine have got funny sideways dents in them.

I remove them by using my fingernails.

I used to dispose of them by eating them but have had to abandon this strangely satisfying pastime.

I've got some that are at a right-angle. Makes it easier to clip. I mean the clippers have a right angle. Not my toenails.

went to the foot doctor, he was off sick and the cute lady doctor cut them a lot closer than he did and I thought he cut them too close - drew blood on both ingrowing toenails, due to get the big snips and phenol treatment sometime in november ?
