I used to think that boogers were pieces of your brain and contained things that you forgot and if you ate them you'd remember.

when i was little i picked my nose like any other normal child. my mom told me if i picked my nose i would have worms grow in my stomach. well. we went to montana to visit family and while i was picking my nose one day i turned to my aunt and loudly proclaimed "I have worms!"
i used to think that if i didnt pick my nose before bed the booger man would eat me. ahhh hes behind me!!!!!!!!!!!

Before when I was a good number of years younger I would believe that your entire body consisted of mucus, and I surmised that if you picked your nose to access hold of your mucus, your mucus would starts to pull apart like a yarn ball and the more you pulled the more that it was pulled apart, which would result in your body becoming a giant pile of stringy mucus.=]] (on a side not I wish to appologize for any typos, they are there for the simple matter that I am 15 years of age, and everything I accomplish is half ass work)

I used to believe that people were stupid, and that you could never ever die of hunger.
You know why?
Boogers made an exellent source of food. And spit was a water supply.
I solved the problem of world hunger.

When I was a kid, I used to pick and eat my boogers(like im sure must little 3 year olds did). Well, my my mom told me that there were bugs and ants inside boogers, and if I ate them the would make an ant hill in my stomach.
When I was probably about 4 or 5, my big brother told me that if I stuck my finger too far up my nose, a sharp toothed snail would bite it off. I believed him, so I tried not to stick it too far up when I picked my nose and also warned all my friends in kindergarten about sticking their fingers too far up their nose because of the sharped toothed snails. My older brother also got my little brother to believe the same thing.
when i was young my parents told me that if i ate boogers they turned into worms in my stomach and well...that stopped me for good... i still pick my nose when nobodys looking (ew!) =P

When I was 3 or 4, I was a real tomboy and I usually watched the Disney movies, especially Pinocchio. My parents said if I ate boogers (eww) I would turn into a donkey, and i was horrified. i was cleaner and...er, had a better diet from then on.

i used to believe that there were bugs in your nose, my parents told me this in a sad attempt to keep me from picking my nose

if you pick your nose your brains will fall out!
When i was in the 1st grade, i had a habit of eating my boogers.(disgusting, right?) I sat in the very front of the room, and during a spelling test, i just had this craving to pick my nose. I dont know why, i just did. and i "accidentally" dropped my pencil under my desk. And when i went to go bend down to get my pencil, i would pick my boogers and eat them.
ewwwwww!!

I saw the movie BEETLEJUICE, where the main character, namely Beetlejuice, is a disgusting green color; I was only four, and I loved this flick--I must have watched it at least a dozen time the first six months we had it! Well, I told my Mommy that "Beetlejuice was a very disgusting green man..." and she told me it was because he picked his nose alot when he was my age--and ate it! I never did it again, for fear of turning into Beetlejuice or anything even closely resembling that color!!! I still laugh with my mom, as she was never one to make up stuff like that, but in this case it was not only hilarious but it worked! :)

When I was little, I had this big headboard on the back of my bed. It was a heirloom upholstered one, made of blue velvet. I would pick my nose at night while falling asleep and rub the boogers on the headboard. Because I was doing this in the dark, I assumed no one would ever know. My mother cleaned the headboard so many times and scolded me, and yet I still continued, absolutely convinced that because it was dark when I continued, she would never find out this time.

When I was a little girl my Mother told me that there were little black bugs in my boogers and that if I ate them they would fly out of my mouth
