Go Over With a Fine-Tooth Comb

A friend once told me that she had gone over her entire apartment with a fine-tooth comb looking for her contact lens, but she never found it.  I told her that it would have been easier just to replace the contact, especially when you consider the fact that it would be quite likely that the comb she was using would damage the contact and render it unusable anyway. Some people take O.C.D. to absurd levels.
