We are in VERY SERIOUS TIMES right now. Rightly so. Still, it’s Friday, so I have this question:
Have you been hesitant to pick your nose in these trying pandemic times?
Well, here’s the answer, and the terrific Reporters at SoraNews24.com have it!
“What The Friday!?!?!?”
This terrific website always has something new and hilarious! This time, SoraNews24 Reporter Masanuki Sunakoma wondered about the best way to successfully pick his nose while at the same time keeping his hands clean and preventing any Covid-19 infection.
That led the intrepid Repoter to “The Nose Picker”, which touts itself this way:
“what you have always wanted and needed“. The “finger” automatically spins to “manually clear your nasal passage of unwanted blockages”.
These photos come from SoraNews24.com, and they also have video of Sunakoma’s hilariously failed attempt to use the device…click on the link here to see it all and enjoy!
Turns out there are many of them on the market, all promising the same thing: a finger-free nose cleaning!
I love gadgets from Japan, like the time I bought an electronic cockroach in Tokyo:

I also found this incredible iPhone cover in Tokyo:
Yep, it’s a “bacon and egg” iPhone cover, just one of many I have purchased in Tokyo!
Yes, you can buy plasticized food in Tokyo, and so I did! See our shopping spree here:

I can always rely on you to make me smile, John…I can think of a couple of people who would appreciate one in their Xmas stocking…if we get a second wave of infections it could well be serious by Christmas…

I’m a bit cautious about sharing anything humorous in these very serious times in the US, but also trying to give a short break from the intensity as well…thanks for commenting, always great to hear from you!

I can live without an electronic cockroach, but that nose picker would be loved by small children. They should make a ‘junior’ version! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

I guess it could come in handy when people don’t want to touch their face these days because of the coronavirus…😂

That’s the concept, but as for the execution, it looks like stuffing a giant log up your nose!
