That's gross, but I bet she can pick a good deep booger!

(I'm FIRST!!)

I find this so...upsetting, I can hardly see straight, I do not lie. Fingernails of any length upset me DEEPLY.

I saw this woman on television once. Freaks me out. She seemed to function just fine considering, but WHY? Just, WHY?

That is so nasty. And, you're right--how on earth can she even dress herself?

Wouldn't be a pain to get her rings on and off, too? Or maybe she just leaves those on...

GROSS. This picture creeps me out, too.

I know this is going to gross you out Jes, but HOW does she WIPE after going to the bathroom? Ewwwwwwwwwww!!!!!

Elizabeth, THAT DIDN'T EVEN OCCUR TO ME. Sick.

I am with Tartine: even if you could do this, why the heck would you want to? Does she need attention so badly that she will turn herself into a freak so that everyone will stare at her anywhere she goes? Apparently, yes.

Also, shiny jeans is not really a good look, in my opinion.

um, yeah.

I just threw up in my mouth.

Everything about that picture freakishly makes me stare at my computer screen. The long big hair (does someone else brush it and wash it for her?), the shiny gold pleather pants (which I think she must have bought the day she decided to stop cutting her nails), and then the long CURLING nails that look like some sort of torture agent. So many questions, so many shudders running through my body, so many moments of laughter and also shock, and yet I can't look away.

That is possibly the grossest thing I have ever seen. Picture her in the shower with those things trailing around. Or tossing them over her shoulder to type an email.

VOMIT.

I think I am glad I can't see the photo from here because it makes me queasy just thinking of it.

Elizabeth, you are too funny, and horrible. I suspect maybe a long stick with a wad of tissue stuck on the end LOL.

Sick sick sick.
They look nicer than the guy who used to be the Guiness record holder for longest finger-nails. His were all curled up, and yellow, and disgusting.

Suebob just made me LOL. Which is good, because up to that point I was down right horrified. She looks like a witch.

The woman in the picture, not Suebob.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and bet that her husband never wants her near his nether regions.
Also, she is like MILLIMETERS away from injuring her own durn nether regions.

GAG!

Yeah that is really disgusting. I do not understand how you could even function like that. But she has issues. She doesn't clip her nails because they have become who she is. BNot healthy.

I saw the photo. Now I threw up in MY mouth.

GROADY!!!!!!!

That is SO GROSS. Ew.

Ewwww, That is so over the top... I have to wonder too.. How does she take care of herself on a daily basis. Seems a bit excessive for sure. I wouldn't go through all of that just to win a world record.

I once saw a woman with nails about a third of that length, and it was SO hard to not stare. The lady would come into a department store I worked at. I once sold her make-up, and she actually managed to get her wallet out of her purse and pay for it! It really is disgusting, because the nails are so . . well, hard as nails! You'd have to take a saw to cut those babies.

How can she even leave her house? She wouldnt be able to get her hand close enough to a doorknob to open it. Let alone a car door- can she even really get in a car with those things?
Does the article in the Guinness book say how on earth she gets through the day? She cant possibly have a job- her nails would interfer with anything she tried to do. Is she actually married? Wouldnt her husband be like, "ok, enough this is just crazy and stupid"?
So many questions!

yuck. blech, eeuuuu.
However, brings to mind a great book:
The Guinness Book of Me: A Memoir of Record
by Steven Church.
He uses his musings on the oddball record holders to launch into some great memoir writing of his own growing up in Kansas. Great Read.

Wow ... I was actually going to ask the same thing as Elizabeth about going to the bathroom.

So the last time she cut her nails was 1979? Did she come up with that goal then, or did she just think, "I'm going to stop biting my nails," then, months later, "Wow! This looks so great, I'm going to keep going!"? Seriously -- what is that process?

she needs to cut that shit *L*

Sorry to be late to the game, but I just saw this and... uh... well... here it is: she's a Morlock.

How can you wipe your butt!

Gross that stuff is so nasty i agree with everbody when the6y say that it is gross
