My Moist Hanky

[MaryPoppinsMassiveSack]

Hello yes,

I am having a problem. It is with the hayfever which makes my nose and eyes run. I am forever blowing my nose and I do take drugs for this but they do not work so well. As such, my hanky (is this the correct word?) gets very moist so I have been leaving it on my desk, draped over the edge so it can dry between snot blasts.

As it is a hayfever Nose and not a cold nose cold I assume that there are minimal germs carried within the hanky, but a colleague said it was a bit disgusting (she brushed against my hanky) though I generally work alone.

Is this a bit disgusting or is it ok to be drying my hanky?

Please don't.

Just 'cause you don't have a cold doesn't mean your snot isn't full of germs. Buy some tissues!

Yuck yuck yuck omg Blerk!

Gotta be a reverse or someone having a little fun with us!

Go to the pound shop,

Bulk buy Kleenex disposable

Blow your nose and bin the tissues when wet, keep your snot to yourself.

Please tell me this is a joke.

Have you used an allergy nasal spray?

Why cant you take several hankies to work with you??

And finally, why do I click on these things when I just know they are going to be ?

Even though I love your username I have to say YABU. It's still snot and a damp hanky is rank no matter what has made it damp.

very disgusting (sorry). buy some tissues and through away after every use!!!

If your hayfever is that bad get to a dr and get some stronger meds!

Tissues u fool tissues!

Seriously that's revolting.

I worked with a lady who dried her swimming costume like that. I did not think that could be topped tbh

This is disposable, but it is a tough roll and so I can dry and reuse several times. I try to save planet, every little helps as tesco say

Hankies are the work of the devil and should be banned. Vile vile things. But the old folk know no better as germs weren't invented in their day.

Tissues are the future!!!

After reusing toilet roll, that might be the grimmest thing ever!

Classic. This gets better and better. But just as an aside....since when did we pay any attentiopn to what Tesco says?

Oh shit that's even worse! Cause dried little bits of crusty tissue break off and are released into the atmosphere and float about infecting all with whatever flora are residing in your nasal cavity.

You are a vile, vile person

On the other hand, I do sympathise on the hayfever front. The antihistamines and beconase nasal spray just aren't touching it.

I totally do not believe you.

Is there somehwere you could go to have your sanity tested, because I think you're long overdue a check up.

I have tried cotton hanky but one merciless honk and I've filled them to overflowing, do not underestimate my Norse powernose (correct spelling? I do not know English for this phrase). So instead I am using a very tough mopping roll (rollmops haha I make the joke this is rare) for spillages and I apply Vaseline for comfort. None of the balsam nancy tissue for me.

This is why I dry and reuse. I can hang on a hot water piper for germ killing product?

I hope you suffer as penance for being absolutely revolting.

This has to be a joke. It has to be.

Hayfever is revolting, not the sufferer. As Tupac said 'don't hate the player, hate the game' I have asked this question of you as the British are sneaky with their bodies, they are not like me where we have no shame to pick the nose, but no, here you deny these thing.

Thank you for your input, I shall modify my hanky use and throw away when full.

Nice try OP, but there are way too many 'in' jokes to be believable!

Funny though!

In jokes? There was one joke about rollmops which are a fishdish, that made me laugh. i find it hard to be funny in English, there are playing with words jokes that are hard to understand. I am learning most English from pop music when young so I make the Tupac reference, but means that I sometimes inappropriate use words. Best funny was I didn't know better and am calling my children homeboy!

EURGH! Do you know what a disposable tissue is? I'm sure you won't hurt the tree population by using a few during the day you disgusting person.

Oh, c'mon! This is silly.

PLEASE tell me you don't apply the same logic to reusing loo roll after you've been for a wee?

Use the lining of your trouser or jacket pocket instead of a tissue. Your body heat will help to wick away the moisture more quickly, and you can simply pull them inside out to air off instead of draping them on the desk.
