Ear Expander

A term referring to an earring used to stretch your ear piercing. Examples are tapers, plugs, tunnels, and spirals.

Any jewelry used to stretch and/or maintain a stretch of your lobes is an ear expander.
A common mistake when referring to an ear expander is calling it a gauge (plural: gauges.) "Gauge" refers to a size such as 12G or 00G.
Correctly referring to your ear expanders takes you from hipster to knowledgeable body modifier.

I just bought new ear expanders.

My ear expanders are Sono wood plugs.

ear burgers

ear burgers:

Balls of orange wax, commonly dug from one's ear (usually Casey) with a car key. "Burgers" is rooted from the latin word, "boogers."

Casey had a itch deep in his ear canal, but he relieved the discomfort through auditory probing with his jeep cherokee key and finally dug those ear burgers out.
