No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I always get dry boogers and they’re impossible to remove when blowing into a tissue.

Are we still keeping up the farce that we don't pick noses? It's 2023, I think we can stop, and just be human.

Now, be clean about it, but just do it.

There’s a saying that everyone picks their noses, but what you do with it is a measure of your character.

It depends on the booger itself. If it's a dry one, I just pinch it into a ball and flick it across the room. If it's one of those wet, sticky, semi-solid ones, I rub it between my thumb and index finger until most of the moisture is removed and the booger is determined to be flickable without being a little bastard and just sticking to one of my nails.

I can't believe you would do that. 😬

The moisture has most of the flavour.

🎵 Pick it, lick it, roll it, flick it, show me how good you are 🎵

You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you can't pick your friend's nose.

Or my favorite variation: You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose, but you can't wipe your friends on the underside of the car seat.

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

you clearly need better friends.

[–] lazylion_ca@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

You cant roll your friends up into little green balls and fling em across the room.

[–] darmabum@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

(or)… but you can't wipe your friends off on your saddle.

[–] Femcowboy@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Frugal is a good character trait....

[–] Starb3an@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I flick them. In the trash can or out the window if in the car.

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Pick it lick it roll it flick it

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Now, be clean about it

Eat them, don't wipe them. 😤

[–] treadful@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I picked my nose immediately after reading the title.

[–] EmoDuck@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I also picked your nose immediately after reading the title.

[–] treadful@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 year ago

Appreciate you

There are boogers all over the bathroom wall. I get it, it's a sawmill but Jesus it's disgusting.
