i used to believe that when you pick your nose and eat your boogers you would grow worms in your stomachs and they would eat everything in your stomach and you would shrivel up and die!

When I was about 5-years old, i was a constant nose-picker. My mom would often ask me at that age, "Are you looking for a cadillac? if you keep picking, you may!" Being the five-year old I was, I kept picking day after day until I got bloody noses.
I also watched a "Ren and Stimpy" cartoon where they destroyed the Lincoln Memorial because they thought his noggin was filled with gold. I then believe that everybody had gold in their brain, so I tried to pick my nose to find it.
All I got for my trouble were bloody noses and big nostrils. (sarcastically) Thanks a lot society!!!

i ased to belive if you picked your nose too much it would turn into a carrot

My dad used to tell me that my nose would turn into a cauliflower if I continued to pick it. I HATED cauliflowers.

I was always tolded that there was a little man in your nose that would bite your finger off if you picked your nose. In kindergarten, all my little friends would pick their noses and I would freak out!!!!

retired nose picker

When I was little I used to pick my nose and one day I heard on the radio that Wayne Gretzy retired and I asked my dad what retired meant and he said to quit a job for a little bit but come back to it if you want to, so when I was about in kidnergarden, I stopped picking my nose, but after a bit I started again and in the car on day my older sister said, "I thought you stopped picking your nose," and I said , "I retired."

Nose Picker :-p

Many of us kids were told, when we were small, that we each had a snail living deep up our noses, and if we stuck our fingers far enough up there, we'd find out how the nose-snails were different from the regular dirt-snails: They had teeth, and would bite the tips of our fingers off.
