when my aunt Sandy saw me picking my nose she told me that if i did it all the time eventually i would reach my eye and then my brain and then my finger would get stuck and when if i tried to get it out my eyeball would fall out and my brain would fall out through my nose in one long strand like spaghetti i didn't believe it, it sounded too ridiculous.
