count me in -yes even us skanky Europeans like clean ears. forget the tooth pick though -that would entirely ruin our image....

I get hard wax build-up. It can't be removed with cotton buds (pokey sticks in our house) although I use them to keep the outer ear clean.

Fot a true eargasm, there's nothing like feeling a big piece of wax come free after days of putting olive oil in your ears, Then working it out. It's amazing. The only thing that comes close is getting a bogey that's attached all the way to your throat, and that's just chance after all.

This is true.Using the cotton-headed plunger will just shove wax and dry skin back into the ear, which leads to problem that keep the western ear doctors employed.

My little oriental wax spoon, however, scrapes along the inner walls of my ears. Scrape-scrape, dig-dig...It's the Cinemax eargasm to Q-tips' Disney Channel plunging.

Sundae Girl - to what temperature do you heat the oil?

Anybody ever done any ear-candling? I know we have some hippies here.

In this way, I address the hippies apart from myself, thus minimizing my own patchouli stink.

I have, years ago. Meh.

My wife has, I have resisted her cajoling to try it myself.

Deep Q-Tips make me sneeze, somehow.

Weird. Sometimes a real hurty zit is like a sneeze button.

Um, yeah, my husband and I both have the eargasm thing going on... Yeah.

When you put the Q-Tip in your ear, do you uncontrollably scratch your belly with your back foot?

Nope, too busy having fun with the foot that's in front.:cool:

I like ear candling, its eargasmistic for me...but I am sooooo there will you Sundae and Brian.

Anyone remember the cartoon: A man chopping down a tree, removing all the branches & bark, wadding both ends of the tree, lifting it with a helicopter ..... and Q-tipping the Mount Rushmore heads :p

You're Mad!
