Which finger is best for picking your nose? Some people prefer pinkies. I reckon those are also the people that have small nostrils. But I've met some who swear by the forefinger. And I met one dude who uses his middle finger, just so he can flip people off while he picks.

What do you use?

Pinkie allows deeper access.

I used to think this was important but it snot. I mean it's not.

So, did someone catch you picking your nose in traffic, again??

That is a good point, so to speak.

We used to giggle when we sang the old hymn "He Watching Over Israel" because the next line was "slumbers not nor sleeps" and it always came out "slumber snot".

"Catch"?

No. With all the dust we have in the air out here, that's a public past time here in Phoenix

When your wife is a CPS investigator, on a select team that deals with severe injury/sex abuse, listening to her screen her work emails is an entertaining pass time..

You need at least some fingernail when using index finger. It makes for a good grasping hook.

With a pinkie, you can turn it all the way around inside the nostril to get to the 'hard-to-reach' places.

I use the pinkie for the middle wall (?) part of the nose. The roughness of your pinki fingerprints should grab what the tissue misses.

Also, with the index fingernail hook technique, try to pull the entire piece out. Slow and easy does it.

Tissue?!?!?

But, yeah, getting it out in one piece does make for better dining.

when I saw the title of the thread, I was thinking Fred started it? Damn. I use my pinkie with toilet paper when I get out of the shower after blowing my nose. Can’t have boogies throughout the day.

Nobody else does the tissue twist?

I do believe that is Chubby Checker's preferred method.
