If I may dare to ask, just how fucking tenacious are your boogers my friend? Pliers? Jesus fucking Christ!
Comment on How do you get the dry boogers out if you don’t pick your nose?

Just pick them, and wash your hands before and after. Then put your boogers in a trashcan. I always wrap a piece of toilet paper around my finger when I pick my nose.
If it’s hard to get them by picking, I use pliers in front of a mirror and then put the boogers on a piece of tp which I then throw into the toilet or trash. (Remember that if you use pliers, you need to be careful so that you don’t stab yourself with them. Also wash your pliers before & after.)

I really hope this is a joke comment.

No?

I wouldn’t put toilet paper up my nose - I don’t trust other toilet users to not touch the toilet roll and I don’t trust the room to not have fecal particles from lidless flushing on things. I don’t want tu put someone else’s poo up my nose.

I know it’s gross but is there a real health risk to inhaling fecal particles?
Laalisaaa042@lemm.ee 2 years ago
I think the risk is that possible micro abrasions would be exposed to fecal matter as opposed to inhalation
david@feddit.uk 2 years ago
Well, perhaps it might be possible to catch some tummy bug from someone else, I don’t know, but you inhale the fecal particles when you flush anyway I suppose.
The lid stays down all the time (well, in between use) at our house, with the idea that you minimise the amount of fecal particles floating around your room. I know it doesn’t eliminate it, but I want to flush as much as possible of the poo and not inhale it, so I insist on the lid being closed.
I’m not claiming danger, I just don’t like the thought.

Don’t use TP up your nose for a different reason: TP is designed to disintegrate when wet. You end up with toilet paper chunks stuck up there.

I just keep a dedicated pair of pliers on a hook in the bathroom

Nobody does. They just threw that into the movie just to make people guess. You can see that over 25 years later, is still works.

Please tell me “pliers” is the term for “tweezers” outside the US.

Needle nose? Those are child’s play. Use wire cutters to cut those bad boys out.

Yes, that’s what I meant.
