As someone dealing with an incredibly stubborn post nasal drip, I can unfortunately confirm I know what my snot smells and tastes like, as it was permanently on my breath for several days when it was at its worst.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Fascinating! And gross, of course.
That must have been rough
How do I delete someone else’s post?
Well there is at least the hide post option....
You ever get that weird smell after rubbing your nose hard? I think that's what they smell like.
Kinda sweet?
Use a neti pot. Whatever you don't smell afterward — that's boogers.
Sort of. Def. learn to use a neti pot. It's the best way to clean your nasal passages.
Some of us know what they taste like though…
If my boogers start smelling like peanut butter it means I’m getting a sinus infection. Happens without fail 2-3 days after I notice it.
That's foul....but handy. Ive only had one sinus infection and the only thing that made me aware of it was the intense headache. Yeah, sounds like you have them often....I don't know how you do it. The vertigo was the absolute worst.
I know there's eye bleach......but does anyone know a source of mind bleach?
ASMR maybe? Idk
What do other people's bogeys smell of?
