This "Bubble" Nail Trend Is Crazy AF

COPDers and CHFers of the world rejoice!

There is no need to justify the post with your quote from the Peanuts... It is what it is and from your reply I'm clear on my perception of it all. Just be more sensitive to others..

Ok, I typed and deleted three responses to this because I don't feel like getting my hand slapped by the Powers that Be.

I'm just going to say, I understand that you're probably a little embarrassed because you completely misunderstood the title of this thread, and some times being embarrassed can make one feel defensive .

I included my example to point out that sometimes a zebra really is just a zebra, and there is nothing deeper or sinister about it at all. Certainly nothing that needs a sensitivity lecture.

Simply asking when you don't understand what something refers to can save so much trouble. Unless you enjoy lecturing random strangers in a public online forum and running the risk of being completely off base.

To adventure_rn... I find the allnurses forum to be a respite away from the various challenges that are faced by those who are not a part of the popular culture. I'm not quite sure what the title of your post referring to "Clubbing is the New Black" is implying. But for me as a nurse it sounds like it's lacking in culture sensitivity and leans heavily towards being stereotypical. I'm not implying that I disagree with all of the post because the nail style is a bit much it's just that the title of your post leaves a whole lot to be desired.

If you don't like the post, why comment?

I hope not to see this trend. My female mail carrier has the nails that look like tree roots, so I NEVER go out to get mail from her. What's funny is that she wears gloves with the fingers out like she might catch something. She must not know that her nails are probably harboring all types of pathogens.

"Clubbing is the New Absence of Color" = avoid people's sensibilities?

Before the show "Orange is the New Black" became popular, the term " ...is the new black" ran rampant in the fashion industry. Because every year the new hot color would claim to be "the new black"

And it never is.

You know what this reminds me of? When I use to put Bugles on my fingers as a kid. :p Do they make Bugles any more?
