Behaviour which needs to be banned...

[Wolfie]

And in light of that previous comment, castigating someone for picking their nose is behaviour that needs to be banned.

Next Monday is National Know Your Nose Day, and I am calling on all of you out there, and your friends and family, to walk the streets and roads of this country with at least one finger continually plugged up one or other nostril. It may sound crazy, but together we can make a difference. There will be a charity dinner dance in the Hall on the Sunday night beforehand to raise funds for the event, and for general awareness of the issues. For hygene's sake, gentlemen are requested to only pick with their right hands, and the ladies with their lefts, and wear appropriate dinner dress, suitable for cleaning little bits of mucus from fingers onto - ladies go backless at their own risk!

Picking and eating it though is shocking and should be punishable by deportation, decapitation or preferably both, in whatever order you so choose.

Dear Mr Beard,

We here at the WATCH YOUR NOSE!!! Society wish to take great exception to your so called, Know your Nose campaign.

As you know full well, nose picking is just a gateway pursuit towards the iniquities of bogey flicking and snot gobbling.

Having been the victim of a driveby bogey flicking 3 years ago - I know the devastation involved.

Remember folks - WATCH YOUR NOSE!!!!

Apparently in Japan it's considered rude to blow your nose in public. I hope that attitude catches on here because it really annoys me.

True. The result is a tolerance of constant, noisy sniffing that would annoy you.

...that's a little short-termist in attitude though. For if the Complainers decry the Emos, with the result that the Emos (tender, sensitive souls that they are) take the complaints on board and become more upbeat, therefore becoming less prevalent and annoying, then the amount of Complainers will (using the John83 Two Orders of Magnitude More Common Scale) correlatively be cut in half.
Thus, from a long-term systemic point of view, it may be good policy to chastise the Emos for their moaning-michael ways?

You assume that complaining about emos will cause them to change their ways but isn't it more likely that it'd just confirm them in their ways?

It seems to me that there is one thing that would solve both sligofan5ever and John83's problems respectively and simultaneously.

Emo Death Squads.

Or failing that, at least Emo Death Panels.

I'll look into it when I've sorted out this bother with the Watch Your Nose!!!!! crowd.

A valid point Commander. However, I expect that we can form a highly trained, specialist army of skilled and dedicated Complainers who will know exactly how to convince Emos. Although starting off small and perhaps not immediately successful, their professional methods of complaint will gradually infiltrate the general's populace way of approaching Emos. The cultural shift will be slow, but eventually I anticipate that all Emos and their baneful attitudes will be eradicated from society within 10 years or so. Peacefully and subtly, I should add.

Bluebeard's solution is happier for everyone.

Well, except emos, but who cares about emos? No one! Or so they tell me.

I know we've had skipping the queues already but the particular breed of queue jumper that is...

The guy at the bar who has just knocked his way to the counter accepts being served by the admittedly inept barman despite knowing that the rest of us have been there longer and then proceeds to look at anything other than glares he is getting off of us

Nothing worse than this pile of human excrement, and I include rapists and Hitler in that statement

You know who you are

In that case, let us compromise a little.
Can I suggest, prior to the slaughter, that we give Mr E. Mo an initial gentle torturing - you know, to make them feel alive. If there's no turning them joyous and triumphant at that vitalising point, I happily sanction the death warrant of all such angst-riddled youngsters uselessly and annoyingly trying to find their way in life. Amen.

"Nice guys............. get their drinks last."

I'm sure I've drunkenly done that loads of times by the way. Sorry.
Of course what all this highlights is the need for a proper, universally obeyed system of queueing. Or else Queue Police, armed with machetes, and an ample supply of itchy-backs to throw down the backs of offenders.
