Resolved Question

Do you pick your nose?

I was just driving down the road, looked to my left and saw a man picking his nose like he was digging for gold!!
I used to do it when I was little, but I never ate what I found if you know what I mean (gross)

Yes I pick my nose and I'm not really ashamed too much about it. I DREAD farting in public or even in front of family...but nose picking is fairly acceptable in my book! lol When I was younger I admit, I ate my boogers. I remember asking my dad one day along time ago if it was bad to eat ur boogers...and he said OF COURSE IT IS WHY WOULD ANYONE DO IT? ITS POISONOUS! and started laughing at my question. For the longest time I thought I was doomed for death...I hate how parents lie to their kids. It really affects them in ways u'd never understand!

If it needs picking I'll pick it. It's better than having snot hanging out of your nose. Yeeech!

Course i do - everyone does! I bet even Jesus picked a couple of winners in his 33 years, lol. Don't eat my crows though; my sister did when she was little & im betting my son has too. Apparently, scientists have said that eating your bogies is good for you - i'll stick with plenty fruit and veg and fibre myself!
I only pick my nose when it's itchy - i scratch the inside, lol.

If I don't have a tissue, I am not going to walk around with a booger hanging out of my face.

Some of us have very narrow nasal channels - you'd be amazed what a difference it makes to ease of breathing to remove even a tiny bit of "stuff"!
Sometimes blowing one's nose just doesn't "cut the mustard"!

HAHAHA.I can't believe this question all the replies are hilarious.Personally I think everyone picks their nose.I pick mine with q-tips I've never been a nose blower I can't ever remember eating it though.I do think picking ones nose should be done in private out of respect for others who are discussed with this behavior.My Mom used to call it undergoing brain surgery.What a hoot but honestly this question has made me have a good laugh.Happy picking ya all.
Peace-out

Absolutely, it's easier to breathe if I pull them out with my nails LOL

[always in provate though, I have a reputation!]

I find it disgusting to drive and be stopped at a light, and look over and someone is going to town on their nose....

But, we can all probably say we have seen that, at one time or another....

I, personally, carry kleenex in my purse.....and try to be as discreet as possible. It's just more polite.

I wish I could have picked mine. I was born with this giant honker and have had numerous cosmetic surgeries to try and look normal. If you think Michael Jackson looks weird you would scream when you saw me. Yes - some are lucky. They get to pick their nose. I was cursed with this one. They don't call me elephant boy for nothing.

Know why gorillas have such big nostrils? because they have big fingers.

I blow, which takes care of most things. Not much of a picker and never (eww, don't even like to say it) eat it. my husband does and it makes me feel sick to see him do it. one of the many great turn-offs that I can think of..

Hey, you can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you should never, ever, pick your friend's nose.
