Well here is mine . While Being admited to a hospital ward at 3am the lovely nurse came in my room asking me the usual questions, then she produces a clear bottle with an ear bud in it and says I need to take a swab from your nose to send of for Mrsa checks !!! Well I couldn’t think of anything to say as I was in so much pain … All I remember is the puzzled look in her face as she looked at the swab from my nose … And then I was fed morphine lol

Here is mine.l When I was about 16 (I had tried snuff nasaly but it wasn’t yet to my taste) I was spooning a lip-full of Navy plain into my lip with a three-way pipe tool spoon. While my face was hovering over the open container my pal said something funny and I “chuffed” through my nose, into the powdery tobacco in front of me. My face was covered except for a line leading up and away from my nose in either direction. Needless to say, he found this quite humorous. Did I mention that we were standing in a somewhat crowded parking lot?

The most embarrassing snuff moments to me are when I sneeze. When I first started I tried some menthols in public and ended up sneezing a giant brown rocket that ended up on my hands and left a trail from my nose to my chin. Many disgusted looks from bystanders. Lesson learned, menthols are for home use now.

Mine’s not too high on the embarrassment scale. A few months ago my landlady, who’s cool, knocked on my door with some questions about something or other. As we discussed whatever we discussed I, of course, was trying my best to override my rag-tag artist’s appearance with a responsible, business-like demeanor. Shortly after she left, I happened to glance in the mirror–which I rarely do–and noticed that I had a Chaplin mustache of snuff. I immediately called her with an explanation. She claimed that she hadn’t noticed! As mentioned, she’s cool.

For some unexplained reason, I really enjoy a massive sniff of Silver Dollar Cherry right before I groom in the evening. I was shaving shortly after my big sniff and I noticed that I was just starting to run a big batch of drippings out of my nose. So, I gave a big sniff because I was covered in shaving cream and couldn’t use a tissue, and i go a big glob of mentholated shaving cream WAY up in my nose. That made me choke a bit, then it burned, and I sneezed, and it was a terrifyingly white, brown and blue mess all over my bathroom counter. *facepalm* I didn’t tell my wife. She already referred to the snuff in my whiskers as a “Shitler” today, and I don’t need to give her another reason to torture me.

I used to live quite near where I worked, so I’d walk the 15 mins or so from my apartment to the city center. In the winter, I always get chapped lips, so I’ve taken to putting vaseline on my lips when I go outside, and wiping it off when I get back inside. This prevents the split lips without having to constantly apply lip balm, which I can’t stand. Anyway, I got to work one day and looked in a mirror to discover that the wind had blown quite a thick layer of snuff onto my vaseline-coated lips, and I had walked through the very crowded Birmingham city center looking ridiculous.

LMAO ! I have had quite a few good laughs already from reading all of these awesome stories . Props to @joe for making this topic! So I haven’t REALLY had an embarrassing snuff moment… Other than the typical, “Just pinched, and sneezed the snuff all over myself in front of my good friend!” Or the ever famous, “Just had a pinch, just had a sneeze, just had a walk in public, just realized a brown nugget was clearly visible!” But I assure you, I will have some embarrassing snuff moment in the future, I can feel it lol. Thanks for the laughs!

Let’s just say taking snuff before swimming isn’t a good idea

@Transistor, been there, done that, I concur.

@transistor : DUDE I totally agree, and I found out the hard way myself LOL .  Public Pool…  Not cool LOL.

 Colleagues at work often tell me that my nose is bleeding. Can’t be bothered to tell them it’s Snuff juice.
