One of the posts I lost recently was the original Promote Your Blog On My Blog Right Now! Basically I gave the middle finger to my advertisers and said…
Hey, you know how you pay to be here each month? You’re a sucker because I’m going to let everyone do that shit for free!
I’m not sure if advertisers appreciate my level of honesty.
So…
It’s time once again to stick it to those losers!
Now, since I never do anything completely selfless, there is a string attached. The first time I rolled this I made you write me a poem. I think about fifty of you did. The next time I made you tell me something embarrassing about yourself. To the dude who made out with his sister in eighth grade – gross. Take that one to the grave next time.
You need to do two things. Hey, the blog’s more popular so you have to jump a little higher.
- Like my Facebook page – this is not a vanity thing. I’m going to do a contest in the next month that I want to make sure you’re in on. I have prizes and everything.
- Post a link to your blog in the comments and tell me one thing you do that’s GROSS.
I’ll go first.
I’ve briefly mentioned this before, but only in passing. I have peed in sinks. Hmm… Let’s start that again.
I pee in sinks. Like, not infrequently.
As a 6’2″ dude the sink is at perfect dong height. So, sometimes while I’m shaving… well… I’ll just not stop shaving. Now, I also live alone and can get away with this nonsense. My girlfriend is in the ATL and when she visits I curb the behavior. Also, before you vomit, remember that urine is sterile. Plus, I have the faucet running and then I swirl the water around to hide the shame. I’m going on (no joke) fifteen years of off-and-on sink peeing.
Okay, I brought it. Now it’s your turn.
Oh, and tell all your blogger friends to swing by and promote their site. All is welcome. Except blogs that talk about sink peeing. I’ve got that locked down.
For some reason I always use a Wil Wheaton photo on these posts. It’s tradition now. While Star Trek was for nerds Stand By Me had that great scene with the leeches that almost made me faint.

Facebook – check. Link to my blog – http://ateachablemom.com – check. Gross confession: I eat my cereal out of the bowl with my tongue instead of a spoon. Charming, huh?!
I don’t want to promote my blog… but… last week I found a great leech story as told by Olan Rogers via You Tube on my daughter’s Facebook page. Check it out.
I get the whole peeing in sinks thing. Dudes stand up to pee and sinks are usually waist level, so it’s a convenience thing, kind of like how toilets are more convenient for women. Now, if you rinsed a dish with your pee before you use it for food, I would raise an eyebrow and maybe judge you a little bit, but hey, to each their own. I’ve been told I’m gross for putting heavy whipping cream in my coffee and eating the fat off of red meat. That’s honestly the only thing I can think of. Oh, and when I eat gold fish crackers at work, I put them in a coffee mug and eat them by sticking them to my tongue. So basically, I’m kind of french kissing my cracker mug. Because it’s either that or share them with coworkers. Screw those guys. http://cerebralmilkshake.wordpress.com/ <—- that’s my blog.
My blog is: http://catling-scribbles.blogspot.comGross stuff. Hmm. Well, speaking of peeing, I once drank my own pee out of a cup to prove a point (the sterile thing). If it has to be a more frequent thing… I don’t know. I sometimes bite my toenails on my feet. That’s a bit of a feat, I might add. Grossness and all, I feel totally catlike, though I probably don’t look half as graceful. Oh, and I always eat the tips of my scarfs. Don’t know if that is gross or just weird.
Yo Yo. I once had to pull over to drop a hot deuce under the cover of a Starbucks drive thru after a night of drinking. Awww yeaaa…www.eddyawesome.com
My blog link is… http://www.iwearspandex.com/As for gross thing, well I’m a cyclist, so I’ve got a few to choose from. Before I ride, I get dressed (yup, spandex and all) and lather my nether region with lotion. It’s not a pretty site, and my wife has walked in on me as I was in mid-lather…more than once. Very attractive. The other gross cycling things usually involve the intense smell and snot rockets. Use your imagination for those.
My blog link is http://www.gtforthemotherssoul.blogspot.caAs for something gross – I used to chew my toenails regularly. Thankfully I’ve had four kids and put a little on around the middle so I can’t get my toes up to my mouth anymore. There are some silver linings to weight gain I guess.As for peeing in the sink – well, there could be worse things I suppose – but I’m certainly not going to mention that to my boys – they have a hard enough time hitting the toilet – can’t imagine if they tried to use the sink.
Facebook – done.Something I do that is kinda gross (like a 5 on a scale of 1 to 10): I can tie a cherry stem in a knot with mytongue. Don’t think that’s gross? Well, my Dad thinks this very gross. My 21 year old son thinks this is very, very gross. It’s all about perspective darlin’. Oh, and here’s my blog link: http://kimdalferes.com/category/kim-dalferes-blog/
My blog is http://laceyempire.com/.One gross thing I do is, well, you know how sometimes guys will have a special sock that they use when they’re entertaining their adultness? Well, my husband and I keep a towel like that beside the bed for handy post-coital cleanup, and by the time we get around to throwing it in the wash, it’s pretty crispy. Also, I buy yellow towels for that purpose because they don’t show the stains.
PoopsLacey Okay, I just threw up in my mouth.
KateHall PoopsLacey Do I win?!
facebook, liked!my blog is; http://www.candaceinnewyork.com one gross thing i do is listen to ke$ha, for fun…on purpose. my blog pretty much my rant about things that shouldn’t upset me nearly as much as they do…but they do, so i blog. see how that works? i’ve been told it’s pretty funny. you can follow me @candaceinny, thanks!
justbeingahappybeing.blogspot.comI’m positive that you only asked for one gross thing; some people are just underachievers I guess. So to keep on the subject of peeing, I take much pleasure urinating in the shower, it feels good to get that out (pin intended). Will like you on FB tomorrow, gotta hit the showers.JB
http://www.curiouslylydean.net I guess the grossest thing is that I’ll share a cup with everyone. I do RenFaire and that’s normal there. Unless somebody’s obviously gross I’ll drink out of there mug or flask and offer mine. I also don’t shower the whole RenFaire weekend.
I’ll join in and admit that, like some others here, I also used to bite my toenails. (You gotta have something to pick at when your fingernails run out, right?) Thankfully, I’ve grown out of that.Hmmm, as something more current, I regularly deal directly with my menstrual discharge – one of the side effects of using silicone menstrual cups instead of letting it soak around in a gross pad or stuffing cotton up your hoo-hah. I think cups are great and I’m totally used to it by now, but if someone ever walked in on me emptying my cup during my period, my hand all bloody – I could easily see how they might vomit. Or faint. Somehow I don’t think I’m doing a very good sell job for cups.
Oh well.You can find me over at http://www.defenestratedfeet.com!
I don’t have all sorts of time to find tissues so when I need to grab a boog the finger is still the most effective and convenient way.You can find out more info on all sorts of gross things I do at It Doesn’t Matter You’re Gonna Die

http://thekozmoz.comSomething gross I do is fart in my husband’s face when I’m mad at him and gassy at the same time. Just ask him how gross it is!
ishclock.wordpress.comI spend a good five minutes every morning digging into the tunnels that are my nostrils. Granted I’m doing this so that they are nice and clean but, you know, I get deep into those things. Anyway, I’ve been away for almost three weeks so not much updating on the blog but I will be back and on to more consistent blogging.
Crusts. http://www.theanimatedwoman.com/2011/05/boy-vs-crust.html
Okay, my blog is: http://www.dsavannah.com/blog/ now go read it, darlings.I’m very sad you said we can’t use the peeing in the sink thing. I did that in college…. I’d stay in my boyfriend’s dorm room all night ~ a big no-no ~ and of course couldn’t go out of his room to the bathroom, for fear of getting caught. So peeing in the sink I did.Current grossness: I fart amazingly loudly. Ever since I had stomach surgery two years ago to correct acid reflux, I can’t belch as much, and have no idea if I can throw up. So, the air’s gotta go somewhere. My farts are truly epic.
My gross tendency: I rather enjoy cleaning my ears with the blunt end of a bobby pin. The scratch of the ear canal is perfection but go too far and you puncture your eardrum. It’d be like skydiving for shut-ins if it were at all similar to skydiving.My promotion: http://www.whitfieldawesome.com
Promise to like your page when I’m done here. Gross thing… In have a bit space between two of my teeth at e gum line. You can’t see it at all because it is literally between the teeth. But no matter what I eat, from one bite of something to a gigantic Vegas-style buffet meal, food INEVITABLY gets tuck in the space. If I don’t have floss with me… Yeah, this is gross and pretty crass, to be honest. I take my earring out and use the post like a toothpick to get the food bits out. I’m so classy. http://thepursuitofnormal.blogspot.com/Now go read it and follow it.Then go “like” my Facebook Page- The Pursuit of NormalThe become my Twitter friend: @PursuitOfNormal
I pick my nose and wipe my boogers on the couch (or seat of the car while driving) if there aren’t any tissues within reach. I tend to blog about my gross habits, like peeing my pants and eating my own skin, so if you want to feel better about yourself, read my blog:www.yeahimanerd.com

Ericamos That is awesome! I totally visiting your blog!
I already like your facebook page (because you’re awesome). I sometimes blow my nose on the inside collar of my t shirt (while I’m wearing it) if tissue is not available. I occasionally also blow my nose on the inside edge of my pillow case in the middle of the night when I don’t feel like getting up for tissue. Shameful, I know:( But I do wash everything quite frequently.http://thebloggerincognito.blogspot.com/
I also enjoy using the men’s restroom as a rebellious act (stickin’ it to the man) and peeing in sinks (only at bars).
Peeing in the sink is disgusting. I freely pick my nose and wipe it on the side of my bed sheets or the floor of my car. I figure that I’m going to wash the bed sheets (eventually) and boogers aren’t any worse than all the other crap on the floor of my car. So really, neither of those are gross at all. I have picked my nose and prepared someone else’s food. That’s pretty gross.http://canigetanotherbottleofwhine.blogspot.com/And, BTW, you are hilarious. And the comments on this post are freaking hilarious.
I don’t know why this post didn’t prompt me to promote a particular post I have: Top 10 Grosses Thing I’ve Caught My Kids Doing (Mom, Don’t Read This). Kids are really disgusting.http://canigetanotherbottleofwhine.blogspot.com/2012/05/top-10-grossest-things-ive-caught-my.html
KateHall Yay!! Booger buddies!!! Thanks for stopping by! I’m definitely checking out your blog. Since you can appreciate a good booger story, here’s one you might like: http://yeahimanerd.com/2011/08/runny-nose-4-life/
Doesn’t everyone pee in the sink? Or near it?
I am known to fart and then wave that beautiful scent up in my nose because it is a thing of beauty. Seriously, it is that good. At least that is what my mom says. http://twoguysatlunch.blogspot.com/
That’s what I get for attempting to type on my phone…here is my more sensical response:

I give up!
I’ll give you a few minor ones. I clean out my nose every morning, and dig out my ears with my pinky because they itch. (I’ve read that earplugs give you excessive earwax which is totally true because I’ve had to go to the doctor twice in a year to get the plug pulled out.) You wanna see something gross? Yeah, look at the earwax plug that comes out of your ear! Also, I belch really loudly, and my husband says that gross. He’s a total hypocrite – he farts up next to me all the time! http://katjaneway.blogspot.com/ My posts are usually pretty entertaining… just not… recently.
It’s a blog about my life mostly so sometimes things get weird >_<
I let my cats stay in the room, and sometimes even on the bed, when I’m getting busy. Then again, I don’t get busy so I don’t think this counts. You can read about other weird and questionably funny things about cats and alcohol on my blog http://25tofly.com.

Hello
- My author blog: http://shahwharton.com/ and my Writing Blog: http://shahscribbles.wordpress.com/ Gross habit? I tend to get sick when I drink too much (and I drink red wine) and with age, I’ve lost my ‘Off’ switch when drinking. My hubs is now my ‘Off’ switch. Shah X
Something gross I do…hmm…where…to…start…?When I’m feeling lazy, I don’t wash my dishes – I swish water in them around until it looks clean. I have this thing about touching sponges that makes me feel really icky. There’s more, but that’s all you’re getting right now.This is my fabulous blog. Read it now.http://thecatladysings.com

Aaaaand…for the grossness: I think all of the bathroom habits and bodily functions have been pretty well covered, so…I have chin hair. That’s right, chin hair. Every morning, I will sit in front of one of those super magnification mirrors and pluck them all out. It’s gross, really gross. Now go check out my blog and try to pretend I’m normal. Or abnormal.
There’s a lot of nose pickers here. Hand shakes are out. I had a friend who used to pick food out of her teeth with a serrated steak knife. Good times. But this is about me. Um…I’m pretty damn good at flatulence. It comes in handy when you’re in a band full of guys. They think that shit is cool. My proudest achievement was clearing out a recording studio for 45 minutes with just one fart.http://www.modmombeyondindiedom.blogspot.com
I have Liked your Facebook Page for quite some time now — some may say ‘too long now’ but I don’t agree with those cynical cheep cheepers. My A Writer’s Life Blog is here: http://justinbog.com/ and ~drumroll begins and they are jungle drums~ my revealing grossness? I sometimes mix crunchy peanut butter in with my tuna fish to make the best sandwich in the world. This grosses out me mate to now end and I tend to only make this delicacy when he is around.
I bite my nails. Like really a lot. Until they bleed. And then, because I’m compulsive about it, sometimes I need to bite my nails and there’s no nails left or they are all bleeding, so I bite the skin around my thumbnails. It’s gross and I’m pretty sure it’s a mental illness. Yay!You can read me never speak of this again at <a href=”http://www.jessisscatteredmind.blogspot.com”>Notes from a Scattered Mind </a>
Facebook: checkGross: Neighbors walk across a corner of my little bitty lawn, which I hate because it leaves a deer path and they don’t care because they’re selfish snots. So, having given up on being polite, I leave composting deposits from my sink (and there are a lot of them and they STINK) right in their path. So every time our entitled trailblazers strut across our tiny little patch of land, they bring deposits of sink slime, tea detritus, food particles and other sinky love offerings to their homes, their cars and where ever else they may tread. Is that gross enough for ya? I have a few blogs now, take yer pick:http://canalworldcast.tumblr.com/ (my podcasts are now popping up here.)http://canalworldreport.com (news, politics, biz, tech, and general observations from around the sphere)http://NewsSnot.wordpress.com (news satire)They’re all mine.

Facebook- done!Gross- I let my 12 year old smelly springer spaniel sleep in my bed when by boyfriends away and let him drool all over my boyfriends pillow and don’t tell him. Given my springers mouth smells like death….its pretty horrible!Here is my blog, baking, cooking, style, beauty & crafts! http://www.e-ddoesit.com/Great getting to see loads of other blogs I never knew existed! Lots of night time reading! x
Hi there!FB: Done.Gross: I eat smoked oysters out of the tin, then give the cat the juice left over. I’ve been told repeatedly that this is just “nasty.”My blog: Home stories, fiction serial stories, and more. http://ramble-inn.blogspot.com/
Hmmm … what am I willing to reveal? Ooh! I absolutely love a successful pimple popping. And, no, I am not just talking about my own. And, no, I am not just talking about on faces. There’s just nothing more satisfying than harvesting a particularly oily (or pus-filled, if I am very lucky) zit. Does that make you want to know me better? Come say hi at http://olddognewtits.com.Thanks, DJ, for hosting. And remind me NEVER to drop my toothbrush into your sink.
Gross, hmm. I’m pretty un-gross-outable. The only thing that gave me a mild *gurk* was the time I drank part of an iced tea that had been hanging around over night and something bumped up against my upper lip. It was in one of those wide-necked Arizona iced-tea bottles. I poured out the rest of it. A roach the size of Nebraska had been floating around in there. That’ll teach me. Thanks for the opportunity to share my drivel, D.J. http://www.homelesschroniclesintampa.blogspot.com/
Bodily functions all have been covered in the comments below but I guess more wont hurt.
farting – hell I am a premenopausal woman, so yes I bloody fart and scare the cat, often. Nose picking and flicking it from the sofa to see where it lands- done that. My sons seem to think it is fairly gross when I shamelessly lust after 19 year old sports personalities!
shit I forgot to include my blog
thank you for giving us the opportunity http://what-adrag-itis.blogspot.sg/
Okay, as per usual, I am a little late to the party. But I never miss an opportunity for shameless self promotion. My gross thing? I pick my boogers, and flick them on the floor. It’s a disgusting habit, that I have no desire to curb. Now that I’ve confessed, Blog: http://sweet-heart.net Twitter: http://twitter.com/kishes

Hi, my WP is http://health2persue.com
I am told that I snore so loud that I wake the neighbours. Thank goodness I share my room with 2 cats.
Well better late than never. Something gross – I let my 3 cats eat off a plate that I wash and put back into the cabinet. Never know which guest will be eating off that plate. Hey, if you come to my house to eat, you might want to bring your own plate or ask for a paper plate as I think my cats have eaten off and out of every dish I own.
