13Jokes about boogers and/or snot. Used often for the sake of grossout and/or immaturity. [[{{Pun}} 'Snot that hard]] to write a joke about all things mucus-related, so you shouldn't have to [[OverlyLongGag dig that deep to pick out a good example of this joke]]. Subtrope of PasteEater. See also NoseShove, ToiletHumour, SnotBubble.

20* A ''Manga/{{Doraemon}}'' story, "Bad Habits Magnifying Gas" have Nobita being reprimanded by his parents Nobisuke and Tamako for picking his nose while watching TV, only for Nobita to retort his parents have bad personal tics of their own as well (namely, Nobisuke shakes his body after sitting cross-legged for too long while Tamako have a tendency to lick her lips at random). Cue Doraemon bringing out the titular gadget to amplify their habits, which he instinctively uses on Nobita much to the latter's protest; later on Nobita randomly picks his nose only to produce a ''[[ToiletHumor melon-sized booger]]''.
21* Just one of the many flavors of ToiletHumor present in ''Manga/{{Gintama}}''. Among other things, Gintoki has a habit of picking his nose when he's idle, and episode 194 centers entirely on Hijikata trying to get rid of some snot dangling from Kondo's nose without him noticing.

23** Many characters frequently pick their noses. During the Baratie arc, Luffy taints Zoro's drink with his snot, which Zoro then forces Luffy to drink. And then we have Mr. 5, who with his "Nose Fancy Cannon" flicks explosive boogers at his opponents...
24** Trebol, a villain from the Dressrosa Arc, has his disgusting but very dangerous Beta Beta no Mi Devil Fruit power, making his mucus a ''weapon''. He constantly produces it in excess, and can use it as a powerful adhesive (using it offensively on opponents, or on himself to stick to walls or make himself slippery), use it like a grapple, and fire off lethal snot-bullets. It's also flammable, enabling him to use his nose like a flamethrower.
25* ''Anime/PantyAndStockingWithGarterbelt'' had a Snot based MonsterOfTheWeek. That's par for the course of this show.
26* Takasu from ''Anime/YuGiOh5Ds'' had this habit, and the worst part about it was, it wasn't even ''close'' to being his worst trait. (The dub version edited the nosepicking out, one of the few things that fans didn't blame the dubbers for.)
