    Wow thanks for explaining the last bit of my own post :rolleyes:

    As my old chemistry teacher use to say "you're as sharp as a bowling ball"

    Well, my little mind sees the act of percieving something completely natural as "gross" as the direct demonstration of a person's lack of touch with his own primal human nature.

    I thought you were a creationist?

    But then it would be primeval rather than primal.

    Well, what I've always been told is that you can pick your friends and you can pick your nose but you can't pick your friend's nose!

    Well thats funny because i blame my own primal human nature as the reasons i can find human functions as 'gross' i don't think i would last very long if i lay around in my own shit all day...

    Philosophicaly speaking, i don't find anything 'gross' or 'clean/safe' but merely a situation or object that i as a concious being percieve, having said that my initial reaction to objects/situations (emotive reactions) if not taught to me must come from my own 'primal' instinct, having said that a lot of emotive responses are taught but a lot aren't.

    Yeah he was, he was a bitter genius, he studied at university when he was 12 and went on to become a highschool teacher so there is no real surprise there.

    Fuck man i dont understand why anyone would want to be one and in my personal experiance i met very few that seemed like they actually liked it... with a few exceptions for the wrong reasons.

    Creationist? What?

    It could be primeval though... I'm pretty sure that we started eating and picking our nose at around the same time in human evolution :)

    Eating and picking nose...

    Not a very good sounding combination.

    Nose picking was taught to be gross. Hasn't anyone told you not to pick your nose when you were little? There is nothing primal or instinctual about thinking that picking one's nose is gross... it's a completely social concept.

    God didn't deny Moses the right to enter the promised land, he just ate him instead.

    Some people in this thread would call God gross.

    Heathen scum! :D

    I do my best thinking when I'm picking my nose and pooping. Doing both at the same time? Shoot, I could probably accomplish world peace.

    lol.

    Nah, I think his beard smells. But I wouldn't go so far as calling him gross. Unless he had boogers in them matted somewheres.
