BTW props for sticking the q-tizzle down in there, it feels awesome. Eargasim. Anyways don't try and f'ck with it. Go to the emergency room and let a medical professional get it out. If you screw around in there you could really f'ck up your ear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaxfactor Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 pour some hydrogen peroxide in your ear and see if it "bubbles out" That's what I do to clean the ear wax out. I put an ear full of hydrogen peroxide and tilt my head to let it work. Then I use one of those bulb things filled with luke warm water and blast it out. Works wonders. You wouldn't believe the chit that comes out of my ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeductiveNun Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Man, I hate getting to these threads late sometimes. Anyhow, there's some practical advice for your situation in the story below. One evening a man was at home watching TV and eating peanuts. He'd toss them in the air, then catch them in his mouth. In the middle of catching one, his wife asked a question, and as he turned to answer her, a peanut fell in his ear. He tried and tried to dig it out but succeeded in only pushing it in deeper. He called his wife for assistance, and after hours of trying they became worried and decided to go to the hospital. As they were ready to go out the door, their daughter came home with her date. After being informed of the problem, their daughter's date said he could get the peanut out. The young man told the father to sit down, then proceeded to shove two fingers up the father's nose and told him to blow hard. When the father blew, the peanut flew out. The mother and daughter jumped and yelled for joy. The young man insisted that it was nothing and the daughter brought the young man out to the kitchen for something to eat. Once he was gone, the mother turned to the father and said, "That's so wonderful! Isn't he smart? What do you think he's going to be when he grows older?" The father replied, "From the smell of his fingers, our son in-law." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
