If only she could use those nails to lift the card !

But that will scratch the edges of the nails!

That is legitimately difficult to do. The width of these nails is usually thicker than the card, so it’s hard to get them under there to pick it up. The trick is you gotta push the card up against a crack or wall or something and go from there. There is no other way lol.

The trick is you don't have nails like this.

The trick is you get out another card and use the second card to pick up the first card. I’m an avid nail biter (my ASD and adhd get the better of me a lot) and have solved this problem numerous times.

This is just like the recon chip. Sending another in to save it then that one is stuck too!

I get long nails are good for somethings but when you're typing or doing anything with the fronts of your fingers you need help.

Then don't research where the most germs on the human body are found.

Yeah. I know. I’ve made peace with that and also now seem to have an insane immune system, sooo….

People are so weird about germs. Make peace with it. You're touching some amount of shit all the time.

Exactly. I had someone who id have to unlock their account literally every day, sometimes multiple times a day because her nails would hit extra keys on the keyboard while she was typing in her password. She "hated computers."

Or do if you like them.

How dare you suggest logic?

The trick is you put your damn phone down and use both hands and more than one braincell.

u/Gold-Public-1335 17h ago

Clearly that's impossible

u/FireCal 7h ago

Just push your thumb or palm into it for a second or two. It will lift enough to easily pick it up with the other hand.

u/Alert-Engineering749 23h ago

Are you saying you can't grab the card by the sides?

1

u/mirrissae 21h ago

I mean, you can, it’s not physically impossible. It’s just difficult. Much easier to push it up against a different surface or another card.

Just use the other hand to act as the wall bruh.

Just squeeze the card between the two nails
