Today, I was cleaning wax out my ears when my wife came barrelling into the bathroom, desperate to pee. The door slammed right into the side of my head and the cotton swab I was using was pushed all the way in and ruptured my eardrum. FML

That sucks and it could have been prevented in a number of ways.

"Shut up brain or I'll stab you with a Q-Tip!" is not supposed to be life advice, friend.

This is why we don't stick things in our ears. Also, cotton buds/q-tips can leave cotton fiber's in the ear canal and cause ear and actual brain infections. The other reason not to use cotton buds. The silicone ear cleaners are much safer and better for the environment.

And this is one of the reasons it’s not a good idea to marry a child… Adults don’t wait until their bladder is about to burst and then run desperately to the bathroom… But seriously, sometimes shit happens. I would definitely say it was the wife’s fault, but obviously this was an accident - Just a really stupid and unnecessary one.

YDI for using cotton swabs in your ears. Their packaging specifically says not to use them for that purpose for the very thing that happened to you (minus the rushing wife).
