It's really a shame that this isn't a kentucker-4 "witness account" thread. Crying or Very sad

You can also get hpv from hand to hand contact. I had a pretty fd up thing on my thumb for a while, had to get it removed with cryotherapy. I'm pretty sure it was from my students always grabbing my hands so much. So now when I walk through the school, I raise my hands over my head so they can't touch them, and I wash my hands after every class. Haven't had the problem again since.

I avoid touching my students. Lots of them have weird growths on their hands. I feel kind of bad about it, but not as bad as I would feel if I caught whatevertf that thing on their hands is.

Not watching the video. I have a fear of the sad and grotesque. Is it the "fingernail guy"?

I feel badly for him but I can't help but be reminded of a character in the comic series District X

A problem the out-of-control involves more than just a virus. He must have mental issues as well. Notice he said that he stopped trimming it off because it just grew back twice as fast. Heck, I think I'd shave that 3 times a day to avoid looking like that. He obviously has other issues than just that sickness.

He must get sad when fruit falls off of him in autumn, and when young lovers carve their initials in his thigh in spring.
