An Open Letter to Whatever is Lurking under my Right Thumbnail




Dear whatever is lurking under my right thumbnail,

What are you, my friend? Be you man or be you beast? I have no idea what you are, but you hurt like holy f*ck. Are you a tiny splinter that decided to lodge itself under my thumbnail? I have examined my thumb up and down repeatedly and I see no evidence of you, but you must be there or I wouldn't be wincing every time I use my right thumb to hit a keystroke on the computer.

Please be gone by the time I wake up from my next nap or I may go postal.

Love and coasters,
CP

I wonder if it's a small metal shaving, seriously. I had one of those suckers get into my thumb and it was an annoying four days.

Careful extracting it. It may leave it's babies in there when you pull it out.
