Comment: Now I get it.

I now understand the whole "snot-nosed kids" thing. I used to look down on people who didn't keep their kids' faces clean. It seemed kind of declasse, or lazy, not to mention gross.

But now I know different. (RIP, adverb)

The reason kids have snot-encrusted faces is that their parent(s) are just too damn tired to wipe their faces forty or more times a day. It's just too much sometimes, especially if you're the only grown up around.

Sometimes a little snot gets encrusted, and it's just easier to wait until bathtime to soak it off.

And for that visual, you're welcome.
