I noticed a guy mindlessly picking his nose today.

He was sitting in his truck outside my office window with his cell phone to his ear. It's not the first time I've observed this behavior from someone sitting in a parked car or stopped at a stoplight.

There's not much to do in your car while waiting for the light to change? Pick your nose, put on lipstick, look in the mirror, text, check Facebook or Twitter, bite your fingernails, surf radio stations, change your CD, eat? You've only got a couple of minutes and you don't want to get so distracted that the driver behind you is forced to honk.

Possible {safe} alternatives to picking your nose

1. Hands at 10 and 2 - staring straight ahead
2. Sing
3. Air drums on the steering wheel
4. Watch the rear view mirror of the guy in front of you who's probably picking his nose

Either way, here's your friendy reminder that you're not invisible in your car. While you're grooming or pretending to be Phil Collins, someone in a surrounding car can see you and thinks you're funny.
