An issue that has perplexed man down through the ages. When you get that deep down ear canal itchy feeling, what would you use to scratch that itch.

This is a scientific poll with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5%. Results will be posted and analyzed in Scientific Itchy Ear American Esquire.

I was told by a doctor once that you should never put anything smaller than your elbow into your ear:)

Which part of the ear are we talking about, hear?(couldn't resist)

The inner ear and that channel thing leading back into your head? I'd suggest the 1-dot wide and a minumum of 4-dot long Lego piece. Ofcourse that's the 1-clik tall.

If you looking to scratch the outer ear I'd go with the Snow-Brush for wiping off the snow from your windshield in winter... The thing that looks like a giant's toothbrush. The hard plastic bristles are excelent scratchers because they rarely brake the skin, plus they are long enough to reach down deap in all those wierd crevices, and it covers a large surface area.

Of-course for the whole general area, ear, inner-ear, behind the ear, temple, hair line, etc... There's always the trusty shotgun...;) :(

Well, really I never! ;) ;)


Just look at those poll results, every slob on the planet knows you use a Bic lighter and a can of Hairspray. Well duh! YOu melt the ear wax then let it drain out onto the coffee table in the front room, where the kids can play with it and make little people and planes with it just like Playdo. Man I can't even believe that somebody asked this question. :D :D :D

Now that drill bit option seems to merit some looking into, lucky for me I'm bald, otherwise that hairspray blowtorch, would produce that wonderful smell of burnt hair. A rather attractive smell if you were to ask my opinion on the matter...

Bonus Suggestion

Depending on how active your ear canal wax generators are, you can do like I do. I save it up and have made a very delightful Candelabra.
It's adds to the cozy ambience of a romantic dinner. Dining on a exquisitly marbled filet of rare beef garnished with violets and pine nuts sipping on Mad Dog with my ear wax candelabra smoldering away. Nothing relaxes a Ladies quadricep adducters more, nor tenses more athletically her quadricep abducters.
