Although we are all familiar with its common title of "Booger," don't be surprised to find it trying to pass itself off as one of these other, less well-known, monikers. The Goober, Nose Gem, Nose Candy, Toddler Toys, Nostril Nugget, Cherub Chewable, Sniffer Snacks, Kleenex Bullets, Button Putty, Pickers Payload, The Driver's Companion, Finger Goo, Schnozz Stone, Beak Pebble, Breather's Bounty, Digger's Dirt, Nerd Bait, Pinky Trinkets, Sinus Samples, Kindergartner Keepsakes, Handkerchief Glue, Traveler's Trophy, The Face Grazer's Delight and, our all time favorite, "The Alabama After Dinner Mint."

This is your basic pick for the Nose Miner on the run. First a quick rooting, then the inevitable glance down to admire the rushed handiwork. This is then followed by a sharp launching normally utilizing the middle finger and thumb. Great for a picker who's short on time. Of course, you should keep in mind that this lackluster method, although time efficient, greatly reduces the overall picking experience.

THE PANT LEG SWIPE

Ah, yes, also known as the "tricky picker." The biggest problem with this particular type of nostril harvester is first, you will not be able to forget he has at least one booger on himself if not bushels. And second, the tricky picker will tend to wipe his nose bounty anywhere he thinks it won't be seen (his leg, your arm chair, his own shirttail, your dog's ear.) Your best bet when dealing with this type of picker is to keep your eyes on those hands. Just remember if he's not a pickin' then he's a wipin'.
