Pick Your Nose in a Public Place

Have you ever had the urge to pick your nose but happen to be surrounded by a crowd of people? You are not alone. We have all felt that need, even members of royalty! Here are a few steps you must follow in order to pick your nose in public without being seen and judged.

Steps

  1. Simply go to a bathroom, or another private place and do it. If not read on.
  2. Try to hide. If you can, just do it in your "hiding place."
  3. If not this, Hide your face and hair. Make sure no one can see your face, when the coast is clear, pick.
  4. If you couldn't hide your face without someone seeing you, turn around. If not this or anything else we said before, read on to the next step.
  5. Turn your face, or just plain out do it, or possibly even leave the place!
  6. If you have a jacket on, pull the sleeve down so it covers all your fingers, then move it in front of your nose, act like you're coughing and........ you know the rest
  7. if a close friend or relative is with you lean behind them and do it

Tips

  • Carry tissues around with you and pick your nose with the tissue; it is more sanitary, and it is okay to do in public. People are not perfect. If you have to pick your nose, then just pick it. The problem that most people have with others picking their noses is that it is unsanitary, so just carry a pack of tissues to pick your nose with (blow and pick your nose into the tissue, not with your fingers and hands - yuck!) Also, it doesn't hurt to carry mini hand sanitizer around with you to clean your hands.
  • Remember, you'll probably never see these people again, so don't be afraid to pick your nose, as I said before, you'll probably never see all these people again.
  • If you are a little kid, it would probably be perfectly fine to pick your nose in a public place.
  • In some cases, none of this works, and there is no way to pick your nose.
  • If you have a daily habit of this, it is preferred to try to quit this habit.

Warnings

  • Do not stick your dissected mucus in walls, chairs, benches, etc. It is not hygienic.
  • Too much nose picking may cause some damage to the walls of your nostrils which may result in bleeding.
  • Try to stop picking your nose if it's becoming a habit.
  • Make sure your fingers are clean (use hand sanitizer if you can) before picking. Otherwise you're just depositing germs in your nose which can make you sick.
  • Wash your hands after picking your nose.
  • Do not shoot your mucus to anyone.
  • Doctors say picking your nose may provide an entry point for MRSA bacteria, But some other doctors say picking your nose is healthy, still don't do it too much.
