The article undermines its own credibility almost immediately. I love how the first quote is basically an expert calling the idea stupid.
I knew this would happen. Now Obama's trying to take away our toys. Pity the children. Bring back Bush. Next thing, he'll take away my model glue with the great smell.
True enough. In fact, it's the primary reason I left high school early. To contribute to the family income, I became a professional picker. It was a win-win proposition.
It's 9:15 and I had a long day at work. The fact that I am even awake should give me the benefit of the doubt and my missing his nose picker reference should be overlooked.
I'm thinking of the Ren and Stimpy bit where Stimpy is excited about the nose goblins he's picked. "I picked them myself!!"
Funny you bring this up. This week I had a fatherly talk with my 20-year-old son about boogers (that's how it's spelled?). I told him how my father had always found it disgusting that I kept one long fingernail which I called my booger finger. It's very useful to have this tool, and you should maintain at least one long fingernail for nose and ears. My son was telling me that he is starting to have nose hairs and I told him, wait till you get gray ones. Then you can be selective about which ones you pluck. Well I don't want to bore you with the heartwarming knowledge passed down from my father to me to my son and to you, but if you or your descendants want me to write a lot more, just gather around the hearth and ask because I have a lot to pass on before I pass on.
I only wish my dad had told me about boogers when I turned twenty. I had to learn it on the street. barfo
He probably left you alone on dark lonely message boards while he went out carousing, producing the problematic man you are today. Your dad probably just whittled wood carvings with you or played spit in the bottle or something. I am practical and try to pass on practical, useful knowledge which will keep my son alive in the post-oil late 21st Century. We must all learn to be frugal in our emerging economy. When China dominates the world, my son will still pick his boogers with pride and I will look down upon him, beaming like the Sun.
Ahhhhhhhhh yes, another classic S2 thread. We started with government encroachment in the livers of those who like model airplanes and ended up with as serious discussion on boogers. It's what makes us great.
