sweep picking

A guitar technique used for playing fast arpeggios. One note per string is fretted by the left hand, while the right hand sweeps down/up on the strings in one motion. More than one string cannot ring simultaneously or it will become a chord/whatever.

The difficult part of sweep picking lies within getting your left hand to fret the notes in sync with the right hand's sweeping.
Artists that commonly use sweep picking include Yngwie Malmsteen, Paul Gilbert, and Alexi Laiho

Boss: Bob, perhaps you would benefit from some..counseling..

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.
