_Well, better late than never…_

Dude, don’t eat nose hairs. _ **No!** __ **Bad!** _

I don’t want to get detailed, but you’re the source. (you, generic plural)

You know, you’ve just shared with us behavior that, in all likelihood, isn’t likely to be replicated by anyone anywhere. So, erm, thank you for that.

If you habitually eat nose hairs, do you find the accompaning mucus to be too high in sodium content?

Are you implying semen? If so, I’m glad I’m with a woman that enjoys ingesting it and doesn’t think of it as a “worse thing”.
