Now if only someone could do something about this not-so-fresh feeling I have.

It is Tonailhands, isn't it?

The pics on the second link are all "after" photos, and not disturbing at all.

I love happy endings!

So I've been sitting here, eating these chile limon chips and trying to decide if I liked them enough to finish the bag.

I'm really glad this problem I had is now solved. Thanks guys.

Please someone solve Dede's problem as well because it is even more disturbing than Ioan's, which I did not think was possible. Oh Christ, I'm going to be awake all night.

Bizarre, internet-induced terror not resolved, simply reinforced by this post.

That's not a bizare skin condition. That's a bizarre skin condition.

Do they itch?

I didn't see anything about what it actually feels like to have those things growing on you. Dear heavens, can you imagine how much they might itch!?

Pardon my pedantry, but I believe the correct spelling is Toenailhands, with an e.

Did anyone catch the Discovery Channel show last night that featured Dede, the Indonesian guy with the tree like growths?

Why do I always happen across these posts while I'm eating? Why?

Why do I always happen across these posts while I'm eating...

...my toenails?

When I was about 12, I developed a wart on my hand, at the base of my thumb. When you are twelve there are lots of activities that are circumscribed at school, in my case, dancing. A lot of the dances you do at this age involve handing hands. It was like she'd been hit with a bolt of electricity when our hands joined. Fair enough! it was a pretty gnarly wart. The look of revulsion on her face stays with me to this day. Happy ending though. My grandmother bought the wart from me for a penny. And, I SHIT YOU NOT, IT WAS GONE WITHIN A WEEK. That girl and I are still happily married 30 years later.

















That last line is a lie, she never spoke to or came near me ever again. But the grandmother thing happened.
Fuck the Vitamin A, Dede's grandmother should get $20 bucks together (change it into pennies) and buy them off him. [caveat: It has to be your grandmother and she really has to buy them off you].

I feel like we're all guest-starring in a very special episode of House. Someone pass me the Vicodin.

dersins, have you seen the "FILM Spectacular saga" at the bottom of the Telegraph page?

I think the evidence to date, tellurian, might indicate that it has to be your grandmother.

Wash off your eyeballs by looking at the sad kangaroo.

Or the swimming squirrel! Or read about the cat with a big carbon footprint!

Thanks for the wrap-up. Been wondering what the hell happened to this guy.

Bonus points for linking to the 'after' photos and NOT the 'before' photos (naturally, I went and looked at the 'before' photos again and I'm just as nauseous as I was the first time I looked...)
