"The
art of digging in ones ears with a
finger to find something either gross, sticky, waxy or just weird...better than looking for a q-tip"
"A
person able to find a q-tip, knowingly NOT supposed to stick it in ear lobes, only to dig, get wax, dig deeper and extract blood."
"To probe lobes is a a good way of doing a self exam, but bad form in front of others, somewhat like picking your nose."
"Dude, I keep on having ringing in my ears, I
mean I do it, I q-tip: probe lobes and still can't stop the ringing, I think I'm making it worse."
"
MAYBE U HAVE TINNITUS AND SHOULD SEE A
DOCTOR, TRYING TO A Q TIP TO PROBE LOBES IS DANGEROUS, I SAW IT ON A COMMERCIAL."
"Could be, but I'll go in, some intern will do a onceover, probe lobes, and have a virtual light show in my ear with that spectrum, yo, what's up with that?
