Why “Keep Your Nose Clean” Is an Outmoded Expression

Today on CNN, they mentioned a new technology which can detect drugs and alcohol and stuff in your very fingerprints! So the anchor lady said: “Watch out what you touch!” But it occurred to me that “Keep you fingers clean!” might be more to the point, replacing the now antiquated “Keep your nose clean!”, which always seemed to me like it referred to drug use (since people snort a lot of different types of illicit drugs into their noses). But maybe there’s some freaky new way to do drugs simply by touching them with your fingers! Those freaky, naughty kids! They’ll think of anything to get high, the rascals!
