high-speed booger problem

Don’t you hate it when you are driving 80 mph and your nose kind of itches, so you pick at it, not PICK IT, but just kind pick at the edge of your nostril with your thumb without even thinking about what you are doing, and you get a little bit of old, dried booger, like just a LITTLE flake of booger, and you begin to remove the little, tiny, booger-flake but then you feel a sensation like the entire contents of your head are connected to this booger flake, and its too late to stop pulling the booger out, and a huge, I MEAN HUGE booger slides out of your nasal cavity and your eyes kind of sink back into your head from the pressure change, but then all the air that rushes in to fill the void left by the mega-booger pushes them back into their sockets, and then you have this banana-slug of a booger draped over your thumb and back of your hand and down your wrist, but you are driving fucking 80mph and you are wearing a suit and don’t have a tissue so you don’t know what to do with this sudden appearance of the King of All Boogers on your hand, so you roll down the window and hope that the wind will blow it off you, but the booger doesn’t cooperate and ends up imbedded in the sleeve of your suit jacket?

Fuck. I hate that.

Uhh...sorry, no. Can't say as that has ever happened to me. On the bright side though, you've brought a chuckle to start out my day on the right foot. Kudos for that.

Better to end up in the sleave of your suit jacket than plastered across your face. Gotta be careful of that wind turbulance in an open window at 80mph.

They don't call it "I-80" for nothing. Just follow the trail of giant boogers.

Dude, that was really funny. I've never had that happen to me on the I-road, but once, long ago, there was a thunderstorm brewing, and I went to unplug my playstation. When I bent over, a booger shaped like a pencil eraser just fell out of my nostril. No picking or blowing, no coersion at all. It just fell out as I bent over and landed on my forearm. True story.

Man you gotta move to Wisconsin. A "Traffic Jam" here is when the two factories in town let out at the same time and it takes you 20 min instead of 10 to get from one end of town to the other. And talking about driving 80? I'm not saying I drove but I have ridden in a car going 110 on our highways and even backroads. It's easy. Traffic? What's that?

As to the booger? That was hilarious. I have allergies and know the scenerio all too well. Ever tried paper instead of kleenex? I have. It actually semi-works gotta be careful about THAT papercut though.

Hmmm after discussing this with my friend for 15 mins youre options are stopping and flicking it in the car (and waiting for the satisfying click) or putting it in your mouth (which seems to be quite a popular option in britain).............. your choice

Depends on how big it is. Sometimes, you have to keep it for a little while until you find a safe way to get rid of it. High speed window drops can be dangerous - half the time, the damn thing flies back in and ruins your clothes for the day (and let's hope you even notice it's there. *sigh*)
Totally have that problem. Yep.

Doh! I saw that I had replied to this thread...twice. Yet, for the life of me, I couldn't remember it. Then I looked at the year. Thanks for the heads up, there.

I have definitely had that happen. It's like the boogers farther up see that there is someone escaping, so they all grab on and yell "Freedom!"

In the cold weather states (Wisconsin for me) you go outside when it is like 20 below zero, and you take a sniff of the cold air, and your boogers actually freeze up instantly. Feels like you got little pebbles up your schnozola. You could pick em' but remember, those nose hairs are froze right inside em'.
