Nose picking

The action of inserting one of the index fingers into either nostril, and clearing out residue in the nose called a booger.

Even though most of us would say EW if we saw it in public, everybody does it...everybody.

How do people keep their nostril's clear everyday? Blowing their noses? I don't think so.

Matt: YUCK! Stop nose picking! That's gross!

Josh: Why? You do it everyday in your car after school.

Matt: Eh, true.

picking the plaque

When picking, or scratching, the plaque off of one's teeth to clean one's teeth of bacteria. This is usually done when one feels bumpy stuff on his/her teeth which is plaque or when one cannot brush one's teeth properly.

There are a few ways to do it:

1. Going to the dentist every 6 months.
2. Using one's nail to scratch one's teeth and putting the plaque onto a tissue daily or after every meal.
3. Using a sharp object of some sort to scratch one's teeth and putting the plaque onto a tissue daily or after every meal.
4. Any other way one would like.

One : Hey your teeth have gotten whiter, lately.
Two : Yeah! I've been picking the plaque everyday!
One : Wow! That's nice. My dentist doesn't even do that for me because he's so cheap.
Two : It's a lot better doing it yourself because it's more reliable and it's a free daily ticket to white teeth!

Stunt Picking

Stunt Picking is a form of cheating in a football pool. IF you belong to the type of football pool where you can pick different players each week and there IS a clause where you can also pick whether the teams those players belong to will win or lose for an extra 5 points per player picked and you pick a 3rd string or injured player who you know will not play but will definitely earn you 5 points exactly and help you in a "CLOSEST TO THE PIN" clause which earns you money for picking your exact total for the week, then you are "STUNT PICKING".

"Did you hear Andrew Cunanan won the closest to the pin this week by successfully Stunt Picking? What a jackass. On top of that, did you see him start ranting and raving about Gianni Versace when we threw him out of the pool for Stunt Picking? What the hell does Gianni Versace have to do with his Stunt Picking? That guy really makes me nervous."
