Shooting Milk Out Your Nose
Why is it so funny when milk accidentally shoots out your nose?
———- from Tony Guzman of Beaverton, OR
It isn’t funny, it’s tragic. It’s a waste of good milk and a violation of the integrity of your nasal mucosa. I once fired a lab assistant you spewed milk at me that way. He claimed it was an involuntary reaction to a knock knock joke, but I knew better. He was actually making an anti-intellectual statement, dismissing and demeaning everything Science stood for. I took it as a slap in the face, albeit a wet one. There’s nothing accidental about nasal dairy projection.
