i know a woman who picks her nose whilst driving, and wipes it on the front of her seat. she laughed when i saw her do this, and said she always does it in the same place, then picks them off when they dry. aibu to think this is a bit ming?

Is it really you lady?Grin

That is gross.

When I was a kid I used the back of my bedstead. It all went swimmingly until we moved house and my mother discovered the many layers of bogies. I can still remember her rage and it would have been pushing 40 years ago.

ha ha - no it's not me. and neither do i drive her car either. although i feel i can't be too high and mighty about it, as my car is no bed of roses. i just think it's a little bit weird....

Disgusting. Anything like that makes me feel physically sick. I got an email the other day about a bogey picker - an actual real life invention that lets parents pick their child's noses so they can breathe easier. It put me off my food all day. I'm going to have to toughen up in preparation for when our bubb arrives.

my brother in law does exactly the same

Mumcentreplus · 20/11/2010 22:45

OMG!!! that is sooo fucking Gross!!!..imagine she probably keeps her pubes in a tissue box beside her bed and her ear-wax secretions a spice jar..watch out those cakes may not contain candied ginger yuk Grin

cupcakebakerer, I wish I could tell you that you feel different about your own child's snot. You don't - I don't, anyway. I can cope with poo and puke and vomit, but kids' snot is just vile. Steel yourself.

yuckyuckyucketyyuck

and what a waste might I add.....

DamselInDisgrace · 20/11/2010 22:53

Surely you have to get used to snot. Toddlers are so often snotty.

hester · 20/11/2010 23:05

Tell me about it, both dds have just had three colds in a row. I will never get used to it, never Grin

ladyfirenze · 20/11/2010 23:08

oh dear cupcakebaker - it's bloody terrible when they start mixing with other dc's. snot central. my personal snot phobia is based around the build up from dc wiping sideways. a kind of pacific ridge builds up across the cheek in layers >gags

On my God! What the hell am I going to do? One friend smiled serenly when I regaled her with the bogie picker story and said she sucks them out. What the hell have I let myself in for?

ladyfirenze · 21/11/2010 19:41

oh that miniature turkey baster thingy... actually quite like the sound of them. baby snot is a different issue for me. i remember being driven to near insanity by singular 'whistlers' up the snout of otherwise snot free babes... a sucky baster thing would have stopped me trying with my tweezers.......
