Do not insert directly into the ear
I know I’m probably the last person on Earth to notice this, but is there something just throbbingly homoerotic about this image?
How about a game of Q-Bert?
Attempted to use craiyon.com to get a muppet Q. After a few rounds, this was close enough.
I know that’s not what this comment section is meant for, but here we go:
I was kinda addicted (wrong word; but I don’t know a better one) to q-tips to the point I had (and still have) occasionally infections in my ears.
Many doctors just gave me antibiotic eardrops, which didn’t help for longer than a few weeks, and only reactively
Finally one doctor gave me an ear-spray; based on vinegar, alcohol and eucalyptus (iirc) that I now use after every shower/bath and it worked wonders as I somehow almost never felt the need to use a q-tip again.
So if you do way too much q-tips, maybe ask your doctor if he kan recommend one to you.
Considering how close they are standing, Picard’s definitely feeling a Q-Tip.
