Did you file them off to cover up for past crimes?
I knew Boxster had to be an alias for something but now I've figured it out!

Oh, cool after getting a fed letter earlier this year saying my personal data was compromised as part of the big security breach I am told to now await another letter letting me know whether my fingerprints were also compromised by the cyber intrusion involving background investigation records.

Not sure what cyber criminals or foreign governments would do with my fingerprints. Hell, they couldn’t even get a digital read off of them last year when I had to get a new security card and I had to have two army security dudes digitally sign that it was really me. Apparently I have old worn out fingers that will not scan. Good lord, I have outlived my fingerprints!

Working them too hard with all of that apple crisp making.
 
Cheer up Boxster. Our neighbor growing up was nicknamed Nubs. He lost the tips of every one of his fingers during multiple farming accidents. Yes, you read that correct. He did not lose them all during one tragic event, he spread them out. Anyway, I'm pretty sure he was not able to give anything more than a partial print after he turned 50.


I had an uncle whom I'm told had real (although undiagnosed) OCD issues about hand washing after working at the packing plant. He'd wash his hands numerous times per day with Comet, and he didn't have fingerprints because of it.

Slow learner?

The girly version of this story is that last week I was exfoliating my face with a clinique scrub, and when I got done, my fingers were all roughed up from the scrubby beads.

With Comet? That dude is hardcore.

Young-and-dumb related story: My freshman year at ISU, I was dirt poor ($1.25 in my pocket and $.36 in my bank account for a couple weeks poor). I was nearly out of soap. I debated swiping a bar from some public restroom, but decided that was a really really bad idea hygienically speaking.

I was working at Drug Town at the time (hadn't gotten my first paycheck yet) and they were running a special on Lava soap. One bar for $.40. I was like, "sweet" and bought a bar.

I wasn't really familiar with Lava, except that the guy's hands in the commercials were really clean after he got done using it. To make matters worse, at that time in my life I wasn't using a washcloth when I showered... just used the ol' bare bar of soap.

Welp, I pretty much removed all of the hair on my chest during that first shower. And the rest of my torso looked like I was dragged behind a car for half a mile.

I'm a little surprised I survived my youth.

You were the original manscaper.

You worked at the Ames Drug Town too, huh?

Yup. The highlight of my Drug Town career was when a fellow co-worker and I ran down a guy that stole some **** from the pharmacy and brought him to justice.

Ok, so technically, the other dude tackled him since I was 6-2 165 and the shoplifter probably outweighed me by 60 lbs, but I did help run him down and box him in. I also helped walk him back across the parking lot pinkerton-style, for street cred.

I did that at the DrugTown in my hometown, but never got much action at the Ames one. Couple of cuties that worked there with me, but that was a pretty boring location. Biggest plus was that they closed at 8. And that Gumbys was right next door.

Why do you think this is a girly story? I also roughed up my fingers using a (searches for name of facial exfoliating scrub) Body Shop Aloe Gentle Exfoliator.
 
After re-reading my story, I just realized I was Robin to his Batman. smh. Thank god I discovered lifting weights.
 
It is a nice problem to have but I am slightly disappointed with the men's bball ticket situation. The lack of available tickets plus not many home Saturday games means we won't be going.

Made me do a for real LOL.

He would've have gotten away if you hadn't bracketed him. If Niang had learned that from you and he had applied that knowledge at the end of the UAB game, the 2014-15 men's basketball team might still be playing in the NCAA tournament today.

The alternative is the McDermott years, so...
