Okay.
Seriously?
Gross!
Yesterday, my husband and I ran errands with our little guy in tow. My hubby stayed in the car with Toad while I ran into Old Navy (more on that later), and I stayed in the car with Toad while he ran in to the car parts place. Then, we headed to Lowes to get the necessary supplies to finish painting some shelves for Toad's room. In order to make it a quick trip, I stayed with Toad in the car. Toad was asleep, and I didn't expect the wait to be all that eventful. However, it was eventful, and nasty at that.
As I sat in the car, watching Toad sleep, a truck pulled up adjacent to our car. Being the people-watcher that I am, I looked up. What I saw was unexpected and just plain gross. A man got out of the driver's side of the truck and squatted down between his truck and the one next to his. He pressed his index finger against his right nostril and blew with such force that out flew a booger!
Now, I have heard of people doing "farmer johns", but never have I witnessed someone do it... and in a busy parking lot, where people are walking all around!?!
Then, he proceeds to do this again. At this point, I am about to gag. Then, he stands up, runs the length of his index finger under his nose, to ensure that he has no booger remnants lingering under his nostrils... and he walks to the back of his truck just in time to meet his wife/girlfriend. He grabs her hand with his booger-juice hand, intertwines his fingers and walks off, chit-chatting about what to buy in the store.
Now, I realize that everyone has boogers. But, come on! Use a napkin inside your truck, instead of spewing your boogers onto the wheel of the next car.
Had I not observed this "farmer john" incident, I would have thought, "Oh, what a sweet couple, walking together hand-in-hand." Having seen this, though, I just thought, "How gross is that!?! And the poor lady doesn't have a clue that her 'sweet man' just wiped his booger juice all over her hand."
Nasty.

yeah. that's pretty much disgusting! i've never heard it referred to as a "farmer john" . . i've only heard it referred to as an "oakie blow" lol. either way - that's just sick!
HAHA! I haven't heard of either farmer john or oakey blow! I think I had a look of disgust on my face the entire time I was reading your post. EEEWWWWW!
sick sick sick!
that's hilarious! They are actually called Snot Rockets!! We cyclists have to do them all the time when we ride in the cold, because it's a lot easier than trying to blow your runny nose while riding your bike....so you just shoot your snot out of your nose and of course make sure there isn't another cyclist behind you so the wind doesn't blow it on them!! Too funny and yes, in the context of your story totally YUCK!
