Why does everyone pick their nose?

Question

i se peopl in my clas pik thier nose, scratch their butt, and pee in their pants. I am 17 and in high school and i've seen people do this strange activity. Why do they do this? Should I be doing it too, or should i be concerned??????

Answer 1

Its quite simple really. As a person sleeps while breathing dirt particuls builds up in the mucus part of the nose which makes it hard to breath, so instead of blowing their nose some would rather pick it in order to get the dirt out (which is kinda gross huh!). people scratch their butts simply because it icthes. but if your only 17, theres no reason to be concerned because people do it all the time even when you dont think they do. No you shouldnt do it unless you have a need to, just dont do it in public or else youll take a risk of embarrasing yourself and everyone around you.

Answer 4

brain tumors can cause people to pick their noses...maybe there is a zombie virus going around that is giving everyone brain tumors.  you should hide.

Answer 5

We all do it because we all get bugars.  It's natural.  The proper way to deal with them though is to blow your nose or go pick it in private.  Just because everyone else does it doesn't mean you have to be gross too....

Answer 6

Because it would be rude for someone else to do it for them.
