gaaah...

I can't be the only one who cleans out ear wax with q-tips. I can't.

Excuse me, we haven't had q-tips for two weeks. I need to go have an orgasmic experience.

No, you're not the only one. I also find them useful post-shower, to get lingering water droplets out of my ears.

It always boggles my mind, the warning on the package. "Do not insert inside ears." What the frak am I supposed to do with them, bundle them up and use them as a dildo?

Good.

...dude. They're not long enough.

And have cottony bits.

That warning also amuses me. She beat me to the commenting punch. :)

But Q-tips are awesome. I'm so with you.

Not to mention the chaffing factor I'm sure would be involved....

Long life Q tips!!

Q-Tips are life.

If you're in a pinch though, a cotton pad (like for astringent or makeup) will work, with a few drops of astringent or rubbing alcohol onit.

Yes, Q-Tips! How else are you supposed to clean out the ear wax and dry your ears after a shower?

Isn't that what q-tips are for?

(chuckles)Thanks. Totally stealable, I might add. Just credit [livejournal.com profile] anne_jumps.

I can't quite see the whiny manbitch attraction to Anakin m'self, but then I was always more of a Han Solo kinda gal.

[identity profile] threnody.livejournal.com 2005-06-12 06:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, same here. Though I must admit that I'm in deep smit with Ewan's Obi-Wan now. *sheepish*

Hey, now! Ewan McGregor is all about bringin' the pretty. He's not Alec Guinness, but he's still pretty groovy.

And I'm not saying Hayden Christensen isn't pretty. He's quite pretty. It's just that Anakin is a whiny manbitch and that totally distracts from the pretty.

And Han Solo is just...he's snarky and he wears tight leather pants. And I'm secretly extremely shallow. Do I really have to explain it anymore?

[identity profile] threnody.livejournal.com 2005-06-13 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
*snicker* No, not really.

I think Hayden tries too hard to look pretty or something (maybe I was distracted by his horrible acting?), 'cause I don't find him even remotely good looking. Though the glowy eyes are good to him.

Maybe I have a thing for beards, but I think that's why I don't mind sitting and looking at Ewan these days. Without it, I still can't pick him out of a crowd. Go figure. But the acting... *swoon* That man can act like nobody's business.

Han doesn't have to try to be anything. He just IS. Very cool, very snarky, very good looking- hell, he's even kind of sweet in his own way. And thus the appeal. :D

You're not the only one. I use 'em on my ears after every shower.

Believe me, you're not the only one. I go through Q-Tips at a disturbing rate.

We're out right now and I'm suprised the hubby hasn't gone squirrely. Hes' the one who experiences eargasms in this family.

AAARRRRGGGHHH!!!

*sheepish grin*

Sorry, you tripped one of my doctor alerts there. Please, folks. Never, ever, EVER use Q-tips to clean wax out of the ear canal. Out of the pinna (the shell part of the ear) that's okay, but you should never put anything in your ear canal. 1) There's the risk of going too far and rupturing your eardrum (And I've TREATED PEOPLE FOR THIS! Not pretty.). 2) The majority of the wax doesn't get cleaned out. It simply gets shoved further down the canal where it can eventually accumulate into a hard ball that is a major pain to remove.

Okay, medical rant over. :)

I use them to get the black grime out of my ears after work. *nod*

And I ABHOR the feeling of water in my ears.

And the q-tip is too big to do more than brush grime out of the very end of the ear canal.

Yes. Yes, it is.

I hate my ears. I have to regularly flush them out with a mix of alcohol and water using an bulb syringe. Not orgasmic. Just wet and messy.

No, I use q-tips for my ears, too.

[identity profile] livilla.livejournal.com 2005-06-11 02:37 pm (UTC)(link)
I use them more for cleaning up my nail polish, when I get it on my skin.
