[personal] Important safety tip

When idly scratching one's belly during sleep, it is best not to get a fingernail snagged in a surgical staple.

That will wake one up, even through the drug fog.

Imagine a few dozen nails dragged across a blackboard at once. There ought to be a word for that sensation.

Any suggestions?
