Picking boogers is going out of your way to take something irrelevant and making it relevant (sniping for inappropriate comments made 90 feet away, etc). Or maybe making a "by-the-book" call on an insignificant violation (LL: R1 on third lifts his left foot - the only one on the bag - to scratch the ankle and puts it right back down - you drop the flag for leaving early)
This one wasn't picking boogers - it was just wrong.
