    I’m sorry, but this is dull men’s club, not manly men’s club. One time a black ball of earwax fell out of my ear.

        Eh, building a fire and staring into it never gets old, I think that might be what some people call “meditative”.

          It never gets old and starting the fire is one of my favorite things. And chopping wood can be meditative or therapeutic. But it certainly isn’t exciting.

          And around here once the December fires are going it really doesn’t go out until March. So not a lot of meditative fire lighting sessions.

          Yep, that’s the best part of doing barbecue.

          Unfortunately I don’t have another place to make a fire.

      I knew this guy who spent an evening in his local, and whilst unlocking his house door, a moth flew into his ear.
      It was alive and the buzzing in his ear was deafening and incessant, and he had no idea how to remove the moth.
      He awakened his sleeping wife, who, in her fog, basically told him to ‘fuck off and figure it out’.

      Moments later she was awakened again. To the sound of the vacuum cleaner: he was trying to suction it out of his ear.

      Not sure if his alcohol-impaired brain was the root cause of this tomfoolery, as he may have done the same thing sober.

      Anyway, iirc, they went to the 24hr walk-in, where the simple solution was effected: a drop or two of vegetable oil in the ear canal, moth succumbs…
