Why is his eyeboogers on the outside corners?

I'm sitting in the library today at one of the many book signings I am contractually obligated to when I notice a man on a computer. The man, himself is not remarkable, but the moment I scanned his face I realized I have seen a phenomenon. Yes, he indeed had eyeboogers on the outside corners of his eyes. I am trying to sign books but I am drawn to the eyebooger. It's a well known fact that they are supposed to be on the inside corner. How is this happening. I know I lost about an hour on time just trying to figure it out. Once his hour of computer time was up he got up and walked towards the table I was signing at. The impossible happened, I stared at the distraction until he passed the table, unaware that he probably thought I was flirting with him.
