Nate: I don't mean to brag, but I'm a genius! Francis: So you've told me. Nate: I've discovered a great way to stop chewing my fingernails! I covered them with the foulest-tasting thing I could find! Francis: What? Pepper? Nate: Egg salad! Francis: Oh. Gross. Nate: Could you open our locker? My hands are kind of slippery.
My brother used to bite his nails when he was younger so my mum made him put on this certain (clear) nail polish that tastes nasty (it was specifically made to stop people from biting their nails) but i think he found a way around it.
