  1. As he hammered the last nail he felt relief wash over him. Finally, the birdhouse he had been slaving over for the past two weeks was finished. Now all it needed was a nice coat of paint, and mom would love it! He smiled and then ran inside, he was so proud of himself that he almost told mom about what he had just accomplished.

    He didn’t though, even though deep down he wanted to. He wanted to see the look on her face when she saw it. The beautiful birdhouse that he made all by himself. With his small eight year old hands that he loved to be held by her. He wanted to see her proud of him, proud of all the sacrifice she made and for her to know that it was all worth it.

  2. Hit the nail on the head, didn’t you? But not before you hammered your hand a few times… Oh sure, you didn’t feel it. There’s gonna be a mark or two (or three or four) in the morning, though.

  3. Biting. Pain. Self harm. Can’t stop. Addiction. Stress. Trying to stop the biting only makes me want to bite them more. Nervous. Ashamed. I wish I could paint my nails like normal people. I wish I was normal. I need to stop this habit.

  4. My nails are pretty short. I have always had the bad habit of biting them, and keeping them short because I had always been playing sports. I have recently let them grow out a little, so now they look longer and prettier when I paint them. They are still pretty short compared to other girls’ nails. I like painting my nails though, because they make me feel girly!

  5. One day I was walking and I stepped on a nail; it punctured my foot, and I started bleeding to death. So I went to the hospital, and they tried to take it out, but I died anyway. Buuuut, luckly, they revived me, only for me to die again. So while in hell, I found the devil and cut his horn and stuck it up his ass. I figured it was a good day, hell.

  6. Nail art is so beautiful. People have been doing nail art for years. Applying acrylic and other fake and toxic chemicals to their nails! And what comes out of it? Pure beauty.

  8. nail being hit by hammers into the home of a child molester. isn’t this single nail partially responsible for the traumatization of the child? whether it be struck into a door or when the first roofer hit it into a shingle. this nail is part of the house that housed a sicko.

  13. I chew my nails. It’s a nasty habit….although there are certainly nastier ones.

  14. There are these nails on my windows that I look at everyday. I’ve unscrewed them three times, for all nine nails. My father’s screwed them back in for just as many instances. I just want— I don’t know what I want, I’m just writing to write but I don’t know what to say.

  15. While I was bathing.. I took a look at my hands, My right index fingernail was yellow, I really should give up smoking. It’s so disgusting.

  16. Fear it though I may, I ripped the chart from its nail in the door, folded it neatly, and put it in my pocket. Even though I did not understand it, I could feel that it may provide a clue as to the situation I found myself in.

  17. Snagging the end if his shirt while he was running, the nail was now deeply embedded into Hank’s arm. A horrible, deliriously painful sensation immediately throughout his arm right before his eyes rolled to the back of his head and he passed out.

  18. Throat too dry to talk properly, she dragged a nail through the mud, trying to draw what she wanted to the illiterate group without straining her voice too badly. Ugh, why did she think it was a good idea to accept any drink by any sort of strange creature, much less someone she knew, the night before?

  19. sharp, grey, it hurts, it bleeds/cuts/keeps it all together. without it where would we be? in the woods in tents maybe, piles of bracken, or caves in the mountains. nail guns punching eyeballs, the gory stuff, nailbiting. breaking.

  20. hardness pain circus act why did you do that to yourself rusty tetanus in hospital, take it out, stop bleeding, stop make it stop, steely heat and icy pain at the tips of your fingertips bleeding nails painted nails.

  21. The nail in the coffin. Yup, I’m up against it again. But I have confirmation this time that I’m not crazy because he and I see eye to eye on this one. But that doesn’t negate the fact that it’s time to go. Time to cut the losses. Time to find likemindedness, not those who want to keep you nailed up.

  22. I could never get that picture to hang straight. Must have been something to do with the nail. I should have just started over, new nail, new wall, new wire, but stuff like that was always Seamus’s job and I wasn’t ready to accept he wouldn’t be able to do it anymore.

  23. nails are used for making things I can make many things with nails wood glue and a hammer nails come in all different sizes shapes and materials it would be nice if i could make something really great with my nails like a super piece of furnature a beautiful table or a wall shelf od bilt in hutch for your china

  24. GRASS! Mow the grass not the flower bed! Mr. Agrams hollered at Jamie as he mowed the yard, taking his attention away from the front of the mower for just a second or two. That’s all it took for Jamie to miss the pile of nails sitting near the edge of the bed and to run it over. Mr. Agrams looked weird now, spikes sticking up out of his chest, arms, legs and head. There was an awful racket coming from the bottom of the mower.

  25. A nal in the wall. Nails can be used to construct or destruct. A man who see’s a womans nails will destruct his defenses letting her elegant beauty into his life. The color of her nails may stand out like the moon in the night. A nail is a solid structure, it is used to comfort and it is used to resemble strength and endurance;” As tough as a nail.”

  26. You falter. Another nail in the coffin.

    They’re gone. Another nail in the coffin.

    You forget. Another nail in the coffin.

    You hurt. Another nail in the coffin.

    You regret. Another nail in the coffin.

    You run away. Another nail in the coffin.

    They forget. Another nail in the coffin.

    She leaves. Another nail in the coffin.

  27. I hit the nail, it didn’t go into the wood so I hit it again. As I did, the hammer slipped and ran off my thumb, producing a dribble of liquid and then a flush of red all around it. I panicked, I shouted yet could not do anything but scream for the rest of it.

  28. nail, fingernail. i have short fingernails because i’m a lesbian. i think there’s a joke about that or something. also there are wall nails that you hammer things with. I mean, you keep things in the wall by hammering the nails in the wall with a hammer i think, yeah. nail is also a word you use to tell someone you had sex with someone. you nailed them. you can also say you nailed a test. you didn’t have sex with a piece of paper though, i hope not. anyway, there isn’t much you can say about nails. i’m learning about nails in my human physiology class and it’s pretty cool. sometimes people keep their toenail clippings. my toenails are ugly though, so i wouldn’t want to keep them. it’s gross. anyway, i have short fingernails because i’m a lesbian, like i said.

  29. I hit the nail and it split my house in half. Now I have no home. I took the nail and built another house with it. Now I have a new home. Wasn’t that clever?

  30. He hit the nail head on with the hammer. He was so gorgeous when he worked. Especially now, as he worked on building his soon-to-come baby boy’s crib.

  31. I can nail that trick! It’s a simple off the lip.

  32. If I were a vengeful person (we all are in some respect) but if I were truly a harm-seeking, vengeful person, I would nail the offenders clothes to the floor. Each article, one by one, I would nail into the floor. The scattering of the clothes would resemble carpet. My insides are smiling at the thought :)

  33. I nail the coffin closed as I hold you in. You cannot bother me anymore. You were greedy and selfish and now I’ve got all the power. Go to sleep little child, never wake again.

  37. I bite them. It’s a filthy habit, I know. But I get so nervous. It’s the only sign that I am nervous, always, always nervous. Nothing else ever shows, but my gnawed nails. The thing is, I do it in secret; it’s a ritual when I’m alone in my haven room where I purge myself of all of the fear. I finish and I go and I pretend to be happy.

  38. a nail is something you hit with a hammer. or you could nail someone. which either means fuck them or beat them. nail is spelled weirdly. if you say nail too much (like i am) it starts to sound retarded. nail. nail. nail.

  39. You don’t tell your friends what really happened. You don’t tell them it was tender and sweet. The words you shared aren’t recounted. You just have that sly grin and say, “Yeah, I nailed that chick.”

  40. Nägel kann man beißen. Das sieht dann nicht schön aus. Wenn ich an Nagelstudios vorbeigehe, wo draußen überdimensionale Fotos hängen von schön zurechtgemachten Fingernägeln und ganz schlimm aussehenden Fingernägeln, dann stellen sich mir die Härchen an den Außenseiten der Arme auf, und ich fühle feine Nadelstiche auf der Haut.
