What did your fingernails ever do to you, huh?

They don’t deserve this. Now, every time you scratch an itch, open a can of soda, or try to pry two LEGO pieces apart, you’ll be subjecting yourself to some serious nail bed nastiness.

Nice job torturing yourself, you goon.

UNAWESOME!

From the Yaghan language in Tierra del Fuego, mamihlapinatapai is considered by The Guinness Book of World Records as one of the “most succinct” words.

In layman’s terms, there is no other word like mamihlapinatapai which shares the same meaning.

It’s definition? The word means “a look shared by two people, each wishing that the other will offer something that they both desire but are unwilling to suggest or offer themselves.”

Yeah, you’ve totally been there.

UNAWESOME!

UNAWESOME!

Hey, what’s going on down there? Cut it out, bowels.

You’re trying to take a test, everyone around you is quiet, and then your small intestine passes some Cocoa Puffs to the larger one. Gas gets moved around, things shift. I won’t get into the graphics.

But nonetheless, the sounds of early displeasure erupt from your tum-tum, and all eyes are on you. Now would be a good time to point the finger at the dude next to you.

UNAWESOME!
