My boyfriend has told me that when he was little he believed his father when he told him that if he picked his nose and ate the snot, they would rot his teeth.

I used to belive that if you picked your nose so far in with you pinkie, the nose monster would come and bite off your finger.

when i was very little (about 3) i didn't know what boogers were. i asked my mom and she said they're brain turds.

My younger brother use to pick his nose so much that my cousin's boyfriend told him that a worm lives inside your nose and it's gonna bite your finger off if you pick your nose too far inside. I believed that for almost 5 years until he told me that it was just a lie so my little brother could stop picking his nose.

When I was a child, my father used to say, "Don't pick your nose, or your bum will fall off". This was a good deterrent for about a week... Then I picked my nose (by accident), nothing happened & I figured out that my father was either clueless, or just a liar!

I still pick my nose!!!

I used to believe that crows ate my buggers if I sent them about the window.

I use to believe that when i had a cold and i sniff it up, they would have to cut my forhead to drain out the snot.

i taught my girfriends daughter that if she didnt stop picking her nose she would cut her brain open!

also i said that if she had snot in her nose, it was nose goblins pouring snot into her nose, blowing her nose would get rid of them, throwing the tissue into the toilet would drown them and flushing would get rid of them forever, she still does it 6 months later, got her to be hygenic though

My father used to tell us, that when we were picking our nose, we were actually picking pits of our brain off, and thats what bogies were - bits of your brain.

my mom used to tell me that if you put your finger up your nose, a snail would crwal out and bite off your finger. i never did it again for fear of my finger.

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

I used to think if you picked your nose too much you'd one day dig your way into your brain! did that put me off!!!

My little brother had a bad habit of picking his nose, and when we would tell him to stop, he would simply cover his finger and nose with his other hand, thinking that we couldn't see what he was doing.

when i was little, my neighbor told me that if you pick your nose and eat it (eww!) your boogers will turn into worms in your stomach and crawl back out your mouth! i believed her for a really long time, too!
