What an Itch!!

You know what really grinds my gears?

Have you ever been writing an essay or paper for class or something? Do you ever get into the groove of writing the paper and you just scribble away? Well if so, comgratulations! Now have you ever been mid-sentence...and your nose itched?

Now you have a dilemma. Do you choose to finish your sentence, and suffer through the pain of your itchy nose? Do you stop writing to scratch your nose, and risk the possibility of losing your thought? Do you multitask, and write and scratch at the same time, but risk having your paper slide and ink smearing your paper? What do you do?

Ladies and gentlemen, this is one of society's greatest problems to date, even surpassing health care. An itchy nose is an unhappy nose, and an unfinished thought is not complete (duh). I'm sure you have experienced the same thing as well. I have come to realize that our noses just itch at the most inopportune times.

You have an essay to write...your nose itches in the middle of a sentence. You are having a conversation with somebody or a group...your nose itches, and you are not going to scratch it because it looks like you're picking your nose. You have to take a picture...your nose itches, and you get a lovely snapshot of your finger near your nose. You are cooking and preping some food...and your nose, once again, itches, and food contamination is very bad.

I beseech the inventors of the world to work on some invention or pill that will prevent nose-itching so we don't have to scratch our nose in neither an embarrassing situation nor a thoughtful project. One of these days, we will solve this problem, and dilemma no more.

And just to let you know, I only had to scratch my nose twice during the creation of this post.

And that's what really grinds my gears.
