When you pick your nose...

Post Reply New Topic

Yeah, I like these sort of disgusting things! Personally, I eat them so that no-one can prove it:

"Eeew! Mum, Tim just picked his nose and ATE the boogers!!"
"Do you have any evidence and witnesses?"
"No."
"Then you can't prove that I did it, can you?"
"But it- *gives up*"

See? Besides, it tastes nice!

I usualy just wipe it on my jeans

I look to see if it was a nice sized booger,. Then I go and wipe it on something.

A tasty meal, wasted...

that seriously made me laugh so hard that i spit out the piece of apple i was eating! and now i'm cleaning it off the computer screen...

now then...the booger...i enjoy observing the booger in all of it's boogery ways and then i proceed to dissect the booger...that's one time i wish i had a microscope

which reminds me...*looks up boogers on the internet*

Professor Meadows, an immunologist at Washington State University says, "The drainage from your nose is largely made up of mucous and fluid."
The internal portion of your nose is lined with something called a mucous membrane, same as the inside of your stomach. In the stomach, mucous defends you against yourself. Its slimy, lubricating coating guards the lining of your stomach against the hydrochloric acid that helps digest your food.
In the nose, mucous has two roles. Along with tiny hair-like projections called cilia, it traps dust, bacteria, and other small particles breathed in with air. Working together as a filtering team, they make the air easier to breathe, cleaner and more free of such harmful things as bacteria.
Basically, snot is a mixture of water and the particles that it and the cilia filter out. It also includes shed epithelial cells, dead leukocytes, dead bacteria and their products, mucin, and inorganic salts.
Epithelial cells line all the inside surfaces of your body, including your nose. They die and are shed much like the skin that peels off in the shower when you have a sunburn. Mucous acts like a shower in your nose, washing away the elderly cells.
White blood cells, or leukocytes, are soldiers in the war on bacteria and other foreign material in your nose. Leukocytes protect your nose (and your body) by swallowing all that bad stuff. Then they die and are washed out in mucous.
Mucin is a sugar made by the mucous membrane that lines your nose. It is one of the products that helps moisten, lubricate, and protect the inside of the nasal passage.
The inorganic salts are materials breathed in that can harden and become...boogers..

and that's why booger taste so sweet...or should i say salty...

That reminds me of when we all got to dissect a worm in Science. You got extra points for finding the tiny brain.

I save the nose picking for after I'm in bed and wipe it off on the side of the mattress covering so it gets washed away when mom does the laundry.

STOP IT STOP IT!! !! !! !! GOOD GOD WILL THE MADNESS EVER END???

Random...talking about bogies.

Anyways, I flick 'em away.

Booger-booger-booger-booger, booger-booger-booger-booger!!

this thread is gross and pointless.

I like to eat mine. They make a jolly good snack.

KBABZ, why did you create this thread?

I think it's funny. It made my mood go from a 2 to an 8.

It made my mood go from 7.80 to 7.81.
