I never knew people could have dry ear wax.

I'm legit shook.

I was grossed out when I saw wet ear wax on my earphone after I've lent it to a guy, that's the only time I've seen wet ear wax in my life.

Ear pick, this is the thing most of us use to clean our ears, since we have dry ear wax, q-tips don't do crap.

Yup, it always baffled me that people use q-tips to clean their ears. I'm like how the hell does that work? We use the ear pick.

I found out people had dry ear wax when I saw an anime where this girl stuck this pointed instrument with a cotton ball on the other side into this guy's ear to clean it. I was like wtf.

I use nice-smelling deodorant when I dress business casual but otherwise nothing. Generally, using a nice-smelling fabric softener during laundry eliminates any need for BO-control. I don't sweat at all unless I'm working out

I used deodorant when I was a teenager mainly because everyone around me used it. I then realized that I don't really need it. Read about the gene thing years ago, which reconfirmed my decision not to use it. No complaints.

OMIGOD SAME HERE.

People would joke about using q-tips to clean their ears.. or so I thought. Like it was some sort of huge joke about dumb people sticking shit in their ears.

Honestly, the idea of sticking in a q-tip into your ear and having it come out wet with yellow moisture... I'd be like, BRO. PUS IN YOUR EARS. YOU MUST HAVE AN INFECTION. GO SEE A DOCTOR QUICK.

I guess it's normal but I suppose a part of me finds it a little gross... but probably only because it reminds me of having pus in your ears... blehhh.

Ear boogers.

I thought it was shows trying to make gross out humor by making ear wax gross and squishy. Turns out nope, just my Asian genes making them less gross.

It's not that wet. Think chapstick consistency at worst.

Besides, you guys may as well have dandruff falling out of your ears.

At least we don't have boogers falling out of them

LOL are we now arguing which type of ear wax is supreme?

Dry Earwax Master Race.

Wet ear wax has a distinct unpleasant smell too. I don't think this is true of dry?
