ever since I stopped biting my nails (-1 dirt bag points) I can use my pinky nail to clean out my ear wax (+10 DBPs). And do a bunch of coke, obviously.

i had to go to the doctor to get an ear flushed out last week because it had too much earwax-- it was painless, took 3 minutes, and i felt like a new man afterwards

about a year ago I tried to use a q-tip after not using one for a long time, and it pressed the earwax againt the drum = constant and horrible ringing sound for some days straight. the moment after the doctor sucked it out w/ a vacuum was among the better moments in my life.

according to him never clean your ears
― iatee, Monday, 30 April 2012 19:05 (twelve years ago) link
my doctor said the official rule is NEVER put ANYTHING in your ear INCLUDING q-tips (thats how i got too much wax plugging up my eardrum)
but if you HAVE to use q-tips, try and be conscious of how you use the q-tip: use it like a shovel, not a battering ram.
also, things like tiny screwdrivers, keys, paperclips are terrible ideas because of bacteria and chance of cutting something

i once wadded up a bright pink flyer at stuck it in my ear because i didn't bring ear plugs to a show
they fell out of my right ear and i had a ringing in that ear from the noize for a couple months afterward
i went to the doctor a couple of months later because that ear was hurting
he reached in with really long tweezers and took out the wadded up flier. it looked like wadded up rolling papers rubbed with lard

I got my ears cleaned out once via water pump, and got really bad vertigo
then again I have 'dry ear wax' so it doesn't build up
I use my pinky to clean out my ears all the time in public, wonder if people think it's weird/gross for me todo that

last week I took my car in for an oil change, and wisely cleaned out a collection of empty cans and trash on the floor in the back. went in to pick it up, glanced in the back, and noticed an open condom wrapper with a condom stuffed back in it peeking out from underneath the floor mat

Searching frantically through the detritus on the passenger side for a buffalo springfield cd that the library says is missing, I unearthed a gallon tub of macaroni & cheese that my mom sent home with us when we visited her last month.

also, re the earwax thing above, my son apparently found a box of qtips that fell out of the grocery bag. he's been idly cleaning his ears on car rides and tossing the used qtips on the floor.

curious as to who counts as a second party in this scenario
― ( ͡° ͜ʖ͡°) (sic), Tuesday, 4 December 2012 02:16 (eleven years ago) link
It was me. Also, the second party is the one who also had sex? Seems obvious.
― mh, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 05:04 (eleven years ago) link
since you said you didn't have sex there, there was a lot of non-obviousness inherent

i'm pretty cleaned up now, but during the worst of a long depression i wore the same undershirt for nearly a month. sometimes i'd have an entire subway seat row to myself, homeless bag man style. one day my friend demanded that she wash my shirt, and when we opened the washing machine door to check on the progress the water had turned completely black. those were some good days.
