Bad habits that are good for you...

Read in the Metro (the font of all knowledge) that picking your nose and eating it is actually good for you. Apparently the germs up your nose are then digested and this helps to build up a really good immune system.
There were a few others that we can't mention in a family forum......

Epykat since we stopped working together you have really gone downhill - sad to say - it must be the enviroment you are working in now, brought you down to a "teenage level" you must touch base with some of the older generation, how about lunch with F and myself during the holidays?

though rumour has it you are going to visit Prombabe over the holidays - ?? let me know

Apparently spreading pus from your acne on a baked potato is good for losing weight. I guess it would work on almost any food.

Porty, I think that's because you then don't eat the potato / food

But the big question is......
Does eating other peoples have the same immunity building effect, I wonder? Could someone find out please???

Would work for me!!

I would have thought the high salt content in snot would offset any benefit from the immunity point of view.

(oh, and talking of snot (coz she has lots) poor little COCs got pneumonia and hasn't been at all well which is why she's missing from her checkout - in case anybody's missed her

)

Sorry to hear that, Epykat. Hope COC gets better soon.

Hope COC starts feeling a lot better soon.

Hi COC...hope you get well soon

teddygirl · Post by **teddygirl** » 30 Jan 2005, 18:28

Hope she's feeling better today now that she has her dear old mum fussing over her

I had missed COC Epykat, but didn't like to ask in case it had some to do with "A series of unfortunate Christmas time events...".
Poor wee soul. She's the fourth teenager that I've heard of recently suffering from pneumonia. Previously, I'd only ever heard of old folk developing it. Wish her all the very best for a speedy recovery.

Yes I had missed her too Epykat, poor wee thing, please tell her I said hello and hope she gets back to work soon.
Is she back at home with you being fussed over and fed "chicken broth"

CatzVP · Post by **CatzVP** » 30 Jan 2005, 20:51

I hope CoC feels better soon!

Does this mean that she should be eating more snotters????

Get well soon CoC. Stick to eating your Mammy's soup though!

Epykat · Post by **Epykat** » 31 Jan 2005, 19:12

She's definitely on the mend. I know this because she's stopped being all pale and pathetic looking and has started arguing back

Hopefully she'll be back to work at the end of the week at which point I will book into a health clinic for some therapy (too much chicken soup making and sympathising taking it's toll.......)

A donation would be welcome at 216.

Epykat · Post by **Epykat** » 31 Jan 2005, 19:33

A donation of what? The Porty/POP doughtnut fund, pneumonia, snot or soup?

Porty · Post by **Porty** » 31 Jan 2005, 19:37

I meant soup but on second thoughts and with all the chat about snot, lets just leave it.

Epykat · Post by **Epykat** » 31 Jan 2005, 19:43

I was just washing out the flask too! Sure??

Porty · Post by **Porty** » 31 Jan 2005, 19:45

Positive, you seem too keen.

It's just that there's not that many people who volunteer to sample my culinary prowess - well, not unless they're too ill to decline

When I was last in America I was stunned to find that Dunkin Donuts actually sold the holes out the doughnuts. You could buy a whole bag of them!!!

They are called Timbits over here, and are more popular than doughnuts....
