 Title comes from an old Japanese proverb. Basically the opposite of "the squeaky wheel gets the grease".

Pre-challenge notes:
A speed edit on this one, but I think it has good lighting. Maybe a mid 5 if the wind is with me.

Post challenge notes:
Not too bad, though i thought it was a little better than this. Interesting distribution of votes. It appears to be nearly evenly balanced on both sides of the 5, with a huge spike at the 5. Enough people liked it, but clearly not a lot of the wow-factor needed to score highly.

I like the nails but not the stuff they are stuck in. It looks like it might be bread?

I think they may break if you hit them.
