Does it bother anyone that tacks aren't particularly sharp?

Tacks are used primarily in shoe making and they are VERY sharp. The point is made by shearing the shank of the tack leaving a very sharp point. Thumb tacks on the other hand are a different item altogether and are, as you point out, usually fairly blunt. I hope this helps clear things up for you.

I wonder if the video editors on The Titanic ever went, "Sorry, I can't right now. I'm busy synching the Titanic..."
