Everybody's doing it, doing it, doing it...

Picking their nose and chewing it, chewing it...

And make no mistake, nose-picking among mice is a serious problem.

There was an essay by E.B. White about the value of creative think tanks where participants were told not to be inhibited but to let natural ideas flow outward from the inside of their brains as free thought.

One said “I just realized that the inside of my nostril is the exact diameter of the end of my little finger. Exactly.”
“Don’t stop. Don’t stop. Go with the idea.”

Plausible link between picking your nose and increasing the risk of developing dementia?

People have been picking their noses since the beginning of time without getting dementia. How about those TAINTED COVID-19 TEST SWABS?

OK
I’m only going to pick my nose until I start forgetting where I left my keys.

The only thing I got out the article is their claim Old Timers is bacterial linked, thus is treatable with antibiotics??

Don’t see how a mouse can pick his/her nose. Who paid for this study?
