Snot rocketing is gross... but if you don't have tissues, what are you going to do? - eviltoast

I do make a habit of carrying tissues everywhere, but I can imagine there would be cases where that’s not practical…

    I’ve never heard “snot rocket” before. In the UK it’s called “footballer’s handkerchief” for obvious reasons.

        Uh, I may have been over confident there. Apologies. I asked in a football/work groupchat last night. About a quarter of people knew what it meant (17/83). They’re all spread out across the UK. No real pattern.
