I used to be a dreadful nailbiter when I was younger; I've pretty much reformed, though if I have a nail break when I don't have a file handy, I may bite a little to even it off.
Nail polish is against the dress code at my job (so are fake nails), so I don't polish them anymore-- when I did I used a clear or natural color. I used to once in a while pamper myself with a "proper" manicure, but no point in it now.
Also, as I've gotten older my nails have become very brittle. They break and splinter much more than they did when I was young.
