Would you pick-and-roll or would you just get in there and dig? I’d be a digger. If someone’s gonna watch me hunt for a trophy, let them watch. Just watch, knowing full well that a flick could occur. (so, who’s going to make the new lyrics to Kanye’s new smash hit “Nosedigger”?) ---

I pick my nose with a tissue. Every time I blow it…I can’t just leave that wet feeling there. My nose has to be dry! I can’t believe I’m posting my booger removal process… sigh ---

Good! We’ve got one. Come on, where’s the rest? Incidentally, I thouhg I stumbled across the scret recipe to make the least popular thread ever. So far with only one reply and a handful of fiews, it’s working…I’m in the record books, baby! ---

I do pick my nose, so I felt I couldn’t reply. ☹ If I wasn’t supposed to, why does my little finger fit there so well?? ---

I have a good rake around. If someone is watching me I take whatever I have retrieved and show them it. Quite often I can get a good sized booger, mainly because I work in a bakery and that flour gets everywhere :smack: ---

I practice mucophagy and eat my rhinoliths. Does not everyone know it is good for you ? [http://web.archive.org/web/20050206203508/http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm\_903083.html?menu=1](http://web.archive.org/web/20050206203508/http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_903083.html?menu=1) ---

Quite often I can get a good sized booger, mainly because I work in a bakery and that flour gets everywhere :smack: The worst is if you work all day somewhere dusty or demoing–gray nosedirt :eek: [hijack] Hey, Least, I saw the rerun of the poodleballin’ ep last night, and Britney refers to “skunkin’, pullin blinds, and poodle ballin!” Did we get a consensus on what all of those mean??

> [@gigi](#): > > Yeah, I’m not sure you’re one to talk, with your scatalogical kinks! 😃😛 I don’t smear my snot on a partner’s lip! 😉 Hey, it’s not MY kink. I merely report the kink. Apparently, “poodle ballin’” is unloading the spooge in the hair, then feeling free to style it, like Cameron Diaz unintentionally did in “There’s Something About Mary” (which I haven’t seen). Besides, the doctrine of “if there’s a hole, something’s going in it” isn’t necessarily a scatological kink. 😃
