Title: Chewing used wads of gum
Post by: bandit957 on September 10, 2017, 06:33:34 PM
Did you ever meet anyone who would chew used wads of gum?

In high school, kids kept prying used gum from under desks and chewing it. They also chewed used wads of gum they found in trash cans or on the floor of the bus.

I felt sick to my stomach just from reading the tile of this topic. There had to be something seriously wrong with those kids. That's one step away from eating a turd.

The grossest thing I  ever saw at high school was when some kids ate pizza that had been sitting in its box on top of the trash can since the previous evening. And, oh yeah, some girl took a plate of nachos in to the restroom. Theirs must have been way cleaner than the guy's lol

You need to use an emoticon (like freebrickproductions used) if you're going to be sarcastic. It's nearly impossible to sense sarcasm online.

LOL. Fundemental misunderstanding here. Google q-tip :-D
Unlike a toothbrush/washcloth/insert other cleaning device of choice, q-tips are meant to be disposable.

My wife actually found (in a dollar store of course,) a plastic reusable ear swab. 

Used it once.  Not a good idea to use them at all.

My wife actually found (in a dollar store of course,) a plastic reusable ear swab. 

Used it once.  Not a good idea to use them at all. 

No, it's not. You're actually not supposed to put Q-Tips (or really anything at all) in your ear, either, due to the risk of damaging one's eardrum and/or impacting wax in the ear canal. I know this after I had to go to urgent care to get a double ear infection treated last year. (Yeah, that was painful and it sucked. I also learned that amoxicillin gives me a horribly itchy rash.)

In short: Don't stick stuff into your ears.

Cleaning out ear-wax is completely fine as long as you don't stick the q-tip to within inches of your brain. I go maybe 7-10 mm into my ear canal when cleaning. I also clean daily in the shower when ear-wax is more easily removed due to being wet.

I'm pretty sure that's only for dogs.

Also, why is this thread still going? Are we even on the original topic anymore?

Aside from the few serious things said such as MNHighwayMan's double ear infection,

This thread has been amusing to say the least.  :-D


For my two cents on chewing used wads of gum, I've never done it, but the thought of the act reminds me of the character Violet Beauregarde from the Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory movie.

Heh.  Reminds me of an article from The Straight Dope...

"I think my roommate is having sex with his cat.  Can you explain the biological reasons why a person can't get a cat pregnant?"

"Yeah, it's the same reason you can't park a Cadillac in the closet, you bozo."
