A Bad Habit

I was staring out the window lost in my own thoughts when I was startled by an arm reaching around my neck from the seat behind me. The arm was attached to a hand, which was holding a small knife. I looked up and saw a grinning man with few teeth in the seat behind me. Before I had a chance to be scared, he gestured at my own hand. I realized I had been indulging in my bad habit of chewing on a hangnail, and this man was offering me some assistance. Thoughtful, no?
