And don't even try to deny it:
Nose-picking is an extremely common habit, with some surveys indicating that it is almost universal, with people picking their nose an average of about four times a day.[2] A 1995 study into nose picking, requesting information from 1,000 randomly selected adults, gathered 254 respondents. It defined nose-picking as "the insertion of a finger (or other object) into the nose with the intention of removing dried nasal secretions". Of those who responded, 91% said they were current nose pickers (but only 75% of these believed everyone did it) and two people claimed to spend between fifteen to thirty minutes and one to two hours a day picking their nose.[3]

Only with a tissue.

I pick it and shape it around a wick to make a big booger candle.

I have totally done this!

I vary between eating and flicking. Flicking has entertainment potential.

Coming from what I would argue is the second or third most congested transit system in the United States...I confess I have probably disturbed a few of my fellow humanoids in rush hour traffic while I go on a quest to clean out my nose. :D

I roll until you can't really tell it's a booger, then let it fall, or use a tissue. Never eat. And not out of a misplaced sense of superiority, it's just that it's disgusting to even think about and you all who do should be ashamed of yourselves.

I just jam a kleenex up there until I'm satisfied with how little dampness is left inside of my face-holes.

I never stick my fingers in my nose unless i'm pulling out an itchy hair or something. Occasionally I'll have to stretch the side of one of my nostrils and inhale really hard because I had my nose reconstructed as a toddler, so one of the openings isn't as big.

Never eaten it or anything. That's weird and gross.

When I was little, for the sheer sake of it, I used to pick my nose and wipe it on my brother's wall right next to his bed. So when he wakes up there's just a wall of boogers.

Psssh. I have no shame. :p

You should try flicking...it provides golden opportunities, pun intended, to harass people.
