A guy I had just met at work went with me to get some groceries on my way home, while I was waiting on the queue to pay for my items, he asked me a question. I looked up from my purse to reply and that’s when I saw him doing it. He put his forefinger into his nose, stirred it with pleasure, brought out the dried nasal mucus, rubbed it between his forefinger and his thumb and ejected it with his fingernails. It passed right in front of my eyes and landed on the counter. ewww!

I looked around to see who was watching, everyone around had a look of disgust on their faces, I was embarrassed. It was so irritating I wanted to throw up.

How on earth could he do that? I was so irritated that I became really cold to him till he left and every time I have seen him since then, that’s the picture that comes to my mind.

Sometimes when I think about it I feel like a hypocrite, because the truth is that I pick my nose too. Using my finger gets the job done faster and neater and sometimes it’s enjoyable, but I do it in private! I choose to believe I have never been caught in public, at least until someone proves me guilty

Wikipedia described nose picking as, “the act of extracting dried nasal mucus or foreign bodies from the nose with a finger. Despite being a very common habit, it is a mildly taboo activity in most cultures, and the observation of the activity in another person may provoke mixed feelings of disgust and amusement”.

Here is the thing; we do it but we get disgusted when we see other people doing it!

So, if you must do it, please don’t get caught in public. Not by someone you are asking out, not by fellow passengers on the bus, not by clients, and definitely not by 800,000,000 viewers like the Nigerian woman that was shown during the Champions League finals some years ago!

Now a video that shows her digging it will be on YouTube forever!

Dig it however you want but not in public please
