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. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.
Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:
- Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
- When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
- More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- No politics
- If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as "capitalism" and "communism". If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
- A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct and the TOS
If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.

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…
I know there's eye bleach......but does anyone know a source of mind bleach?
ASMR maybe? Idk
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.
