Did you hear that? That was my body kickin’ the bad guys out. Y’see, I’ve got a slight cold. Sniffling, sneezing, congestion in the head, sore throat.
Isn’t it amazing how when you’re sick your body never runs out of snot? You can blow your nose 10 times in a short period of time and then just a minute later it’s ready to be blown again… It’s an endless supply of snot. But if that’s what it takes to get the germs out…
When you wipe your nose and get some liquidious snot on your fingers, then rub your fingers together, where does the snot go? Is it absorbed back into the body? If so, does it get reused by the body? Or is it broken down into its basic elements? No one’s ever been able to give me an answer on this…

It snot what sticks to your fingers that matters, it’s the booger of a time you have rubbing your fingers together afterwards. Who nose what happens to all that caulk. 🙂
I thought the allies got the Germs out at the Battle of the Bulge (a battle I’m now losing, by the way). Hey, maybe snot is French for Germs? Maybe you should consult your interpolation website. 🙂

Since I’ve been sick the past couple of days, snot has been on my mind (and occasionally on my hands, if I can’t get a Kleenex in time). And I remembered this post, and there still isn’t an answer for it here.
If you get snot on your fingers, like from rubbing your nose while it’s runny, and you rub your fingers together, the snot disappears. Where does it go? Is it recycled by your body? Or does it remain snot and get re-released later?
