If there is a group of
people, and there is an unpleasant task to do, the last person to put their
finger on their nose is the
one who has to do it. Sometimes someone will say "nose" to instigate the onset of "nose," and again, the last person to put their finger on their nose, loses.
note: this has NOTHING to do with picking your nose. You put your finger on the OUTSIDE, not the INSIDE, of your nose. If you have trouble destinguishing between the
two, there is probably a sesame street song that will help.
Person
1: The trash is overflowing!! Someone really should take it out.
Person 2: Nose!
(persons
1-8 put their finger on their nose, followed by person 9)
Person 3: hahaa, Person 9, you
lose, you have to take out the trash, and
boy does it stink!
(Person 9 tries to argue, then realizes that it's futile, and reluctantly takes the trash out.)
