Did you get your nose back or was he evil?

I'm the uncle who points to their shirts and says "Hey, you spilled something right there" They look down to check the damage and, WHAM!!!, I biff'em on the nose with my finger that only seconds before was pointing out their non existent stain. I am a God.

My dad did the pulling his finger in two thing - it scared the crap out of one of my cousins when he was really little. He wouldn't go near my dad for the longest time after, and when he finally did, he always looked ready to flee at a moment's notice.

My dad would get possessed by Goofy. I thought it was really cool until I realized he wasn't actually possessed by Goofy, then it became kind of sad and pathetic.

My God, I was jaded at 4.

my uncle frequently picked me up by the ears. he liked to pretend my head was an urn with handles.

Yes, my nose was stolen. I was also attacked by fog monsters and crabaloggers.

I think that you're lucky that you only became jaded. Had I been exposed to that as a kid, I'd still be curled up in the corner, rocking on my haunches.

My father took me to the Texas Schoolbook Depository when I was a kid. When I was five. Still freaks me out. I remember "Dream Weaver" by Gary Wright playing once we got back into the car.

I was occasionally regaled by "The Funny Cowboy" in my parents' attempts to get me to take a bath. It was a little like my mom was possessed.

When I was about five I also had another uncle who used to grab me by one ankle and one wrist and spin me round and round and round like I was an aeroplane. One time he let go and I hit the apple tree.

We got to play horsey, which involves sitting the kid up on your lap and jogging them up and down while singing a song which had a delayed line of "....drop!" which was when your parent/uncle opened their knees and you drop screaming for maybe a foot.

Your search 'Man With No Nose Due To Terrorising Uncle' yielded no results.

"What an asshole."

I had an distant relative who used to like playing "pony rides" where I'd sit on his knee and he'd bounce me up and down. When I grew up he got charged with paedophilia. Talk about feeling queasy.

my dad did this thing where he made his thumb joint pop, it was his party piece. He now has arthritus in that joint and no others

I had a great uncle who'd do the nose thing. He'd also boil sausages in his kettle, but that wasn't to entertain us kids (deliberately).

The Purple People Eater in the garage freaked me out. Is it purple or does it eat purple people?! I MUST KNOW!!!

boil sausages in his kettle

Wow. Did you ever eat one of his boiled sausages? Did they come out alright?

My uncle done the 'pull my finger' thing which I fell for everytime.

Just when I got wise to that old chestnut his wife had a baby, and when they were visiting he'd say "I've got a present for you." Inevitably it was the dirty nappy that had just been changed, but my childlike curiousity and the word 'present' fooled me for a good wee while.
