Just a moment ago, I watched my husband reading the paper and picking his nose. I waited, knowing what was coming.
He twirled it between his fingers, popped it in his mouth, and chewed. At which moment I asked, "What does it taste like?" He looked up, startled, then swallowed and burst into laughter, and so did I. Then he said, "like moist bread, except tasteless."
"Why do you eat it?" "Because it's the most convenient way to get rid of it," he answered.
Hmm. I keep a tissue or hanky nearby.
Others sprinkle it wherever they happen to be.
Others pop it out the window at traffic lights.
Presumably, many people save it for times when they visit the loo. Which must mean quite a lot of clogged and itchy noses out there in the lands of the polite. What do you do?
Then you are the first official member of the Muggers Polite Snot Brigade, maybe the second if I'm the first. Welcome! :) Free tissues provided. A whole box of tissues on the anniversary, and a packet of finest handkerchiefs when you reach 10 years membership.
You need to get a new husband or start to cook him organic food that's not home grown ....:( Nose bag like that is snot on anyone's menu ere in England....:(
Yep. One of our favourites. Have been watching the reruns for years and somehow never get tired of it. Love anything with John Cleese, and much prefer the top British comedians to most of the US ones.
Try and find a film called " Yellowbeard" ...it's the greatest Python film ever...I guarantee you will love it from the moment it starts.....it has so many stars in it .. Madeline Kahn and Peter Boyle ,Marty Feldman and so many other in it...Cheech and Chong and so many American and English actors i... there are so many of the greatest on liners in it to remember.... Best film ever.....lol
I wonder if he'll notice the slight difference in the texture this evening. ;)
I just asked him how he'd like it if I added snot to the sauce. He burst out laughing again and replied, "not if it's yours, but I'll supply you with mine if you like."

Definitely. We both think food tastes better when eaten direct from the hand, as if there is some reflex unconscious signal from the brain. Even better if we feed each other. In our house, licking the fingers or the plate is considered a compliment to the cook. (We take cooking in turns.)
Woops - now I've really made us sound like a pair of orangutans.
I have blown my nose 'western style' outdoors when no one is around and I have no paper towels handy. You put one finger over a nostril and blow it out. Sometimes a length of snot will hang down. Then you gotta shake it off.
