NIT-PICKING AGAIN

I said to myself this morning as I was fooling around---you are nitpicking again. It came to me, that I say that a lot and sort of know what it means, but what is it's origin?  Of course it bothered me till I asked my friend Mr. Google. It started in the 1950s. A person who is obsessed with what they are doing and jumps from one thing to another. Sound like you? Or Me. Also it was a common thing during the l950"s head lice. Kids were searched for them in their hair. How invasive. Can't remember anything about that ? Oh well, So Be It. I do NITPICK but not for nits.

BETTY (let change the subject) BOOP

p. s. did you see the 98th Birthday special last night for Dick VanDyke?  I did enjoy all his works.
