You already covered a big one.

But, nose picking.

I've never met anyone that didn't, eventually, have a boog that wouldn't blow out. They might not go two knuckles deep or anything, but a dainty pinkie poke happens at some point when there's something stuck.

Now, there's folks that only do it when there's no other option they haven't tried, but our noses have evolved in a way that sometimes we just gotta pull out a blockage or irritant. Our fingers fit well, and have the right texture and surfaces to get the job done.

Ever watched a lot of monkey and ape footage? We aren't the only monkey looking critters that do it. It's common as heck

Yep! There's a few of the queen picking her nose, way before AI etc were a thing. Even HRH did it!

Picks or it didn't happen.

Hey, it's the reward for having a cold - that feeling as you pull out a booger that detaches from deep in the back of your sinuses.

Talks to themselves a lot. Ranting and raving in the car pretending you're on the phone, talking to the air at home about recent events... nobody admits it though!

[–] blinfabian@feddit.nl 10 points 3 months ago

youre alone on this one buddy 😭🙏

[–] Zero22xx@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Haha don't worry I'm with you on this one. Although not full rants (except for in my head). But I do a fair amount of thinking out loud. And also, making awkward facial expressions that match your thoughts.

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 4 points 3 months ago

Yep I'm so glad mobile phones were invented! I can pretend to be yakking to someone instead of verbalising random thoughts

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

People don’t admit to this? Hell, I talk to myself, my pets, insects, basically everything alive and a good chunk of inanimate objects too.

Feels too weird to be silent as a vocal/social animal.

[–] JASN_DE@feddit.org 5 points 3 months ago

No, not really.

[–] kamills@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago

I do in my head. Like I will still inhale and exhale in sync with what my inner monologue is saying

[–] theblips@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

I actually don't do it and it makes me feel weird. I'll sing and do the usual autistic echolalia but I never actually speak

Does yelling at the RNG in a game like it's a person that is doing their job badly count?

[–] tiramichu@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

"Oh my God, you fucking asshole!! How can I fail a 75% success roll four times in a row, for fuck sake!"

That was me playing Citizen Sleeper 2 a couple days ago

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 2 points 3 months ago

Haha that's a good one! Done that many times

[–] neidu3@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well, "wanker" is pretty silly to use as an insult...

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

True... I have one pencilled in for later so I should probably stop saying it

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Damn, you must live a pretty fancy lifestyle if you have a calendar for your wanks

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 4 points 3 months ago

Yep I only wank in style

[–] tabris@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Shitting themselves in public. It doesn't happen often, maybe only a handful of times over your life. But it will happen at some point. You'll be at the urinal, or sat on a barstool, go for a cheeky fart, and feel a warm wetness you haven't felt since you were a baby. Then you run to a bathroom stall, see what you can salvage, and excuse yourself from the situation.

It'll happen to you at some point.

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 12 points 3 months ago

Oh goddess I hope not

[–] vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 3 months ago

when it happened to me i was wearing a pair of white pants...

[–] Irelephant@lemm.ee 13 points 3 months ago

Picking their noses.

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago

Lying to themselves. It happens, but it’s hard to own up to.

Who here hasn't waffle stomped?

(And no, I don't pee in the shower, that's fucking gross)

[–] Alice@hilariouschaos.com 5 points 3 months ago

Pickd their nose

[–] mjhelto@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Using Q-tips in your ears!

[–] CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al 2 points 3 months ago

I do that. I know I shouldn't but I do

[–] Penny7@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Looking in the toilet before you flush.

And you should do it. The colour of your urine tells you how hydrated you are and so if you should be consuming more fluids (hydration isn't just water). The state of your feces can be an early warning system to potential issues even if it didn't feel off when you went.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 2 months ago

Sometimes you may also want a second opinion.

"Hey everyone! Get in here and check this out before I flush it!"
