If you do go to a European country, please, I'm begging you, don't stick your cotton swabs up your nose! Seriously, in researching and preparing statistics, I have looked at literally hundreds of pictures taken in European countries. It's simply amazing how many of those snapshots show people with their cotton swabs stuck up their nose! So, listen up, people, (and you know who you are), it's dumb, it's silly, you would never do that with chopsticks in a Japanese restaurant, and it just makes you look like a big "stupid foreigner" (baka gaijin), so, cut it out already, OK? Oh, and another thing, don't do the Walrus Tusks, either. Trust me, that's just as dumb! Apparently, this problem is so wide-spread that one cotton swab manufacturer has had to put a warning label on their wrappers!
