Typing with long nails is the embodiment of “beauty is pain.”

The pain is real, but the beauty is subjective.

To me long nails are ick

The longer the more ick

I will never forget when I had to help a coworker with her laptop, she had long nails that had worn grooves in her keyboard keys.

She typed on her nails, the sound it made was terrible.

Ew. Most people I've seen w/ long nails type with the pads of their fingers, with absolutely terrible typing posture.

It' was a status thing. Those with manual labor jobs usually can't have long nails, so long nails means they're above manual labor. So the rich in the past did that, and now everybody wants to do that so and it becomes a beauty thing.

Everybody definitely doesn't.
