Hi, Everybody!
Let's talk boogers. :smile2:
How many times have you been talking to someone and they have a booger hanging from their nose?
What do you do or say? Have mercy!
OMG! There were times when I was going about my business, talking to co-workers, clients, and strangers.
Later, I would take my compact out to check my make-up....(I have oily skin. I like to blot. Ha!) and there IT was!!!!! A booger hanging from my nose! :oo: How long was that booger there? How many people did I interact with that saw that BOOOGER????? And didn't say a thing! :blush:
What would YOU do if you were talking to someone, anyone, that had a big, giant, nasty azz booger hanging from their nose?
:laugh:
Peace.

haha, Sig! Boogers are the elephant in the room, aren't they?
My usual line is to tell someone either "You need to blow your nose" or "You have something on your nose" and I make a brushing motion on my own nose so they get the idea. Naturally I don't make a big deal of it--I wouldn't want anyone else to.

Well what ya do is, ya point your boniest pointy finger right at said glistening glob o' gorge rising semi-solid goo, and loudly & excitedly exclaim in your very bestest comin' on down the Price Is Right voice:
"Oh Oh Oh Pic-A-Winner Pic-A-Winner:y:!!!!!
Yeah, yeah I guess I am pretty swell pal to have around sometimes:rolleyes:

That has happened to me--I'm talking to someone and they have something right there, or maybe a little to the side...I don't say anything. I feel so awkward! I don't want to embarrass that person, it's almost always a guy and I don't want to make them feel ridiculous. What IS the right thing to do? Say or don't say? If it was me, I'd want someone to maybe kind of say 'ahem' and do a slight nose rubbing or something to let me know. I wouldn't want to walk around all day like that! :eek2: I always tell my husband to 'Clean your nose, that looks disgusting!' or he'll turn to me before he goes in the bank or somewhere and ask if everything looks clean..ha!ha!..he's so funny!

I have allergies to dust ya know, or maybe you don't, so this is more often an issue of tissue with me than the average bear.... checkout lines, the bank, school, you name it,there I am ofttimes left standing, or sitting (looking with chagrin into the rear-view mirror), in the province of the freshly-picked nose-jewel... crikey...

I just say, "Hey, you've got a hanger."
Sometimes I say it, even when they don't....

On the same note, once I was in a hurry going to school, shaved, ran out the door, spent hours in classes, had lunch with the Anatomy teacher, picking his brain, got home, looked in the mirror and there was a huge piece of toilet paper still stuck to my neck where I'd nicked myself that morning.

I've stopped the oldest boy from going to school that way twice this month already. ;)

Hmmm, might work. I let him go to school once when he accidentally put on his mama's Rainbow Brite t-shirt.... At least now, he turns on the light to get dressed.

I once had a tear in my shirt i wasn't aware of by the pocket, woo hoo, showing to much skin there, for me anyway.... at least it didn't happen at the same time as a nostril malfunction...

Thank you, everybody!
I usually have a compact and tissues in my pocket so I'll habd the person the open compact and a tissue and turn away.
PLEASE!!!!! Tell me if I have a hangar! I don't want to go about my day with something hanging out of my nose. Tell me.

I assume that they know they're nose-whistling but can't help it.
Ever see somebody with a big ole green one on their shirtsleeve?

Will it be okay if I don't tell you but tell everybody else I know? That's just a little different. As for nose whistles, if you're bored you can think of lyrics. No that's right, that's the other end.

What's worse is catching someone (especially if an adult) putting it in their mouth and swallowing it. :barf:

Ms. Mod, my step-brother, well, sadly former due to divorce, once saw this beautiful blonde pass him in a convertible on the highway, and then right up into her nose went her finger! I don't remember him saying what she did with it, but still...
