Subway Nose Nuggets

Watched a girl on the subway knuckle deep in her nostril, digging away for gold, as she pulled her finger out of her nose and examined her treasure intently before eating it. It wasn’t like a one time thing either, she was making a full meal out of it. All the while being surrounded by other people. I watched for a while before looking away and locking eyes for a brief second with another stranger who shared a face of absolute disgust.

This was a grown ass, mid 20s woman munching away on nose nuggets. Not even like a quick, sly, pretending to be scratching her nose type of picking. She was going fishing again and again until she found the biggest, most choice booger before licking her finger clean. Like i could see that yellow glob on her fingertip from across the aisle, the way she looked at that thing, it was like when you have a really good meal and you stop to savor the last bite. She was just out there loving it. I never seen anything like it, and hopefully, I wont again. The look on that girls face, god damn it was like she was Cypher from the matrix when he takes that blissful bite of steak.
