I’m just grateful that none of you people have webcams.
and FYI a Sackie will fit in my left nostril, but not my right.
I can’t fit a Twonie up either nostril.
Well, you know what they say, “You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but you can’t stick your friends wedding band up your nose.”

I’ve only had it going since 1998 though, so it’s pretty new 
Good morning fellow ring-jammers.
Ooh, I get something similar - but just above my nads.
Goddamn you - a new challenge to be undertaken.
That would be so cool, because the ring would be invisible - it would look like I’d just developed this huge nostril. A semi-Lon Chaney off of Phantom of the Opera.
Attempts trick
Owowow ow. No, it’s way too big. Now if I could borrow a pinky ring off one of the girls here, I might have some success…
dwyr, your licking things story reminds me that a few years ago me and some friends had the habit of licking each other. You’d meet a mate in, say, the pub, say hi, then lean over suddenly and lick their forehead or cheek. The wetter the better, but I don’t really know who would be more grossed-out, the licker or the lickee. But fuck, it was funny.
Can someone translate this, please?!?!
No clue what a Sackie is, but a Twonie is a Canadian $2 coin, and I would be very, very scared if anyone could fit one up their nostril as it is approx. 2.8 cm in diameter.
And on the off chance anyone was wondering, I don’t have a wedding ring and all the rings I do own have various bumpy protrusions, so I haven’t attempted putting anything up my nose.
Sackie is a Sacajawea “golden” dollar coin.
I can do it too. Tried both nostrils and the ring fits in both.
Note that I am talking about vertical insertion here. I wont try a horizontal one.
This thread has, in addition to having given me something to spend time with at work, shown me that I do not have a measuring implement of any sort in my room at work, nor could I find one in the copying room.
OK, I will have you know that on my way home last night, I found myself checking out my fellow subway passengers’ weddings rings and nostrils, and making mental computations . . .
Are you happy?!
Well, I never thought I’d say this, but I just tried to stick a toonie* up my nose. It didn’t fit.
[sub]*Note proper spelling, uncapitalised.[/sub]
Ditto. I thought I was just weird.
And my ring doesn’t fit. It’s just under 2.3 cm in diameter.
Well, I can stick my finger into my navel, as far as the second joint, and all it provokes for me is weird looks from the other people in the office.
So, I guess that’s one avenue of sexual diversion that’s closed off to me, then.
American quarter up one nostril, Aussie 10 cent piece up the other.
They’re both about the same size.
Just took out the quarter and put in an Aussie $1 coin. Success. It’s the same size as the quarter, but it’s thicker… twice the thickness of the quarter.
I tried the Aussie 20cent piece. No go… close, but no go.
Now everytime I breathe through my nose there’s this weird smell… like coins (I already took them out)… thanks guys!
Hmmm… I guess I can safely post this 'coz Mickey D’s doesn’t sell hamburgers in styrofoam boxes anymore.
Back when it did, several of us on a high ski school trip had enough money to buy a meal each and then pooled our change to buy an extra Quarter Pounder with cheese. But we couldn’t decide who got the extra burger, and we knew the first guy would try to eat the whole thing if we shared, so came up with a hamburger-box-eating contest: winner take all.
At 3/4 of a box, I beat the second-place finisher by a good 1/4 of a box but was too ill to eat the burger, so gave it to the cutest girl on the bus.
FYI, the human body (at least mine) will not digest the styrofoam from which they used to make McDonald’s hamburger boxes. However, it does make fine, if colorful, roughage.
I apologize to those of you who consider this a sharing violation.
Oops. Should have said “high school ski trip,” although it was the 1970s, so I’m not 100% sure “high ski school trip” wasn’t a Freudian slip…
In high school, I knew a guy who could stick his entire pinky finger in his belly button. He swears he still couldn’t feel the end of it, and claims that his stomach must have been left open after his appendectomy. He does like to embellish every story he tells though, so I have to take everything from him with a grain of salt.
I’m so happy I’m not the only one who needs to pee when I get poked in my belly button! My boyfriend almost had me convinced I was a weirdo. 
ok. so i just had to go get a ring out of my jewelry box and try this. but no luck in making it fit. 
i can’t believe i did that.
Yes! It was predicted somewhat earlier in the works of Nostril-damus ::snort::
Slight Hijack:
It’s a branchial cleft remnant. It’s congenital, in that you get born with one because your branchial cleft didn’t close in your first eight weeks of embryonic life, but it’s not genetic, in that your genes didn’t specify it, and it’s not inherited. (Congenital syphilis is not genetic.) I think the cleft is from pharyngeal arch II (don’t quote me on this; too lazy to get up and open up the book and look. Maybe if somebody stuck a firecracker up my ass?)
Long time lurker, first time poster…
I always knew I’d get around to registering and posting on the SDMB but I NEVER thought it would be about something like this. Oh well.
Anyway, I’ve been married for the last six months and stick my wedding ring up my nose at least every other day (I wish I was lying.) It’s just such a great way to irritate my wife.
My ring is only 2 cm across, while my nostril is 3 cm. I could lose the thing up there. And yes, my nose is huge.
You knw what they say about a man with a big nose.
