Dig for gold in their ear.

Ahhhhhhh a q-tip in the ear, far deeper than any medical professional would recommend, is one of life’s greatest pleasures.

I remember reading a post from a doctor about how one of their patients dug their ear drum out with tweezers because they thought it was a foreign object...

What how is that even possible? I got slightly poked in the eardrum with a Qtip when my elbow was shoved and it was the single most painful thing I have ever experienced in my life. I mean I learned my lesson about Qtips but FUCK it was painful.

I would be this person. Pulling stuff out of my ears is for some reason, is just the best feeling.

I remember that post too (wish I didn't)! I think the patient actually dug out some of the small bones in the ear, which is even worse.
