Parents in Rhode Island are being warned that their children could succumb to horrifying infestations of nasal maggots worming in their noses, internal bleeding and lung infections if they continue snorting Smarties candies.
The skin-crawling consequences of the unusual trend which seeks to imitate cocaine users seen on television, are caused by a condition called nasal myiasis—which occurs when flies lay larvae eggs inside the nose—attracted by the rotting candy rammed up inside the lining.
According to officials in Portsmouth Middle School, the trend is a “widespread phenomenon” that has been sweeping YouTube in recent years and has involved over a dozen students in the area. …

Someone should tell these dummies to try to snort Salted Nut Rolls and film the results.

I once snorted Pop Rocks when I was about 13 or 14 years old.
Yeah, those things...
They started to fizzle way up in my nose and then...BLAM!!! One blew up big enough to hurt my nose for a while.
I did that once...just...once.

Between him and Syd Barrett, I’m thinking that Waters’ brain suffered the greater damage.

I love this use of the instant meme of “nasal maggots”, which of course rates about a billionth of a percent possibility. However, it should be applied to other things, like Obamacare, which is *known* to cause nasal maggots.
Which of our political leaders already suffers from nasal maggots? Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, certainly. I’m also thinking Harvey Weinstein.
Endless possibilities, here. Nasal Maggots!

I love smarties. They’re just one step below Atomic Fire Balls.

I think it was Steve Martin that did a bit about poprocks in his jockey shorts and “wet my pants _just_ a little”.

Yes, it looks like it’s being pierced by a bullet of some kind. For scale, the roll is about three inches long, 1/4” in diameter. A real favorite at Halloween.
I have no idea why anybody would grind them up and snort them. Stoopid, I guess.
