I always get dry boogers and they’re impossible to remove when blowing into a tissue.

    Are we still keeping up the farce that we don’t pick noses? It’s 2023, I think we can stop, and just be human.

    Now, be clean about it, but just do it.

      There’s a saying that everyone picks their noses, but what you do with it is a measure of your character.

        It depends on the booger itself. If it’s a dry one, I just pinch it into a ball and flick it across the room. If it’s one of those wet, sticky, semi-solid ones, I rub it between my thumb and index finger until most of the moisture is removed and the booger is determined to be flickable without being a little bastard and just sticking to one of my nails.

        You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you can’t pick your friend’s nose.

        Or my favorite variation: You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you can’t wipe your friends on the underside of the car seat.

        Exactly! I mean. It literally comes from your body. It probably has benefits.

        Hell, I’d even ddink my own piss.

        Not shit though. Piss you have a rough idea of what’s there. The pale colour makes sense. Ahit, whilst commonly a specific colour, it does not relate to what you eat.
