What is something you will never do no matter what?

I will never ever cut another persons toenails.
I did that working in the hospital.
They brought in a homeless women and it took 3 of us to clean her up. I got the job of cutting her toenails and found it pretty repulsive. I had my mouth slightly open trying to get through the hard tough nail and one flew in my mouth and I swallowed it.
When my hubby broke his leg a few years ago he asked me to cut his nails. I told him I'd do anything for him but that was above and beyond the the call of duty.
He waited until the cast came off.

Oh Ruth, I'm totally grossed out now. I hope I never have to trim anyone's toenails. Ugggghhhh. You've got me thinking here, Ruth. Hubby if unable to will probably ask me to trim his toenails. Holy mackerel. I think I created the word, queasy. LOL :sick:

I trimmed my dad's toenails when he couldn't do it any more.
They sorta "Crumble" instead of coming off in pieces. And powdery stuff flies around when old toenails are cut. Mine are starting to crumble too. šŸ˜‚

Maybe you're confusing "political party" with "way of life" or "personal ideals". I was willing to sacrifice my life when I tried to enlist in the military, but that wasn't a political decision; I thought I'd be fighting for my way of life.

I think we're about the same age, @Murrmurr. I'm 64, and joining the military for me at the age of 18 would have meant going through a bunch of drills and training, and hanging out in Germany. That's what my friends did who joined the military since we weren't involved in any wars at the time.

So maybe you could elaborate. How would joining the military have protected your way of life? Even Americans who served in Vietnam weren't protecting our way of life.

I'd decided to join during the Vietnam war, when my oldest brother joined. Troops were being brought home before I was old enough, but I went to enlist anyway because I wasn't so sure it was over. (I was rejected for medical reasons)

I know now that the Vietnam war had very little to do with our way of life, but that's what we were told when I was 15, and I was convinced of it.
 
Iā€™ve proved yet again that you never have a clue what might take off on a forum...

Anyway..I will never sit in the upper tiers of a modern sports stadium.
Canā€™t stand heights....and they rise very steeply....

I have eaten it. You're not missing anything, trust me.

I was raised by my grandparents, and I had to have one spoonful of everything on the table. Grandma didn't know how close I came to puking on the table. I would try anything to try to keep from tasting it! I would try to swallow it without tasting it. I still hate it. DH loves it , but because of the salt he can't eat it now. Even the smell used to make me gag.

I would expand of that to include never cleaning a rabbit or squirrel

Cleaned rabbits, squirrels, but no chickens. However I have plucked or cleaned game birds, ducks, pheasants, quail, and grouse. Not a big deal, no worse than deer, elk or fish. Alligators are the hardest.

I do it in the boat or on an outdoor fish cleaning table, never in the back of a pickup! Frogs are easy to clean.

Easy maybe, but it took a long time for those images to get out of my head. I guess I'd be a vegetarian if I had to forage for my own food. I'm too squeamish. But I wouldn't be above eating meat if someone else killed and cleaned it! So, not a vegetarian...
 
I will never, ever ask anyone to clip my toenails.

When I broke my leg, both big bones, and tore all four ligaments around the knee, I had to ask my husband to cut mine for me. He used his big clippers and cut the big toenail way down into the quick. The pain from that was the worst part of the whole experience. Maybe he was freaking out like you toenailphobes!

I don't get you guys! Out of all the disgusting, wet, runny, smelly things the body can produce. Cold hard toenails don't seem bad at all to me.

Well that's a shame, David! I'll have to call Charlize back and tell her you said you weren't interested.;)
