It was like this giant metal syringe thing that looked like a cake decorator on steroids. I can't even explain how painful the washing out was but the Doctor pointed out all the built up wax that also came out. And my hearing was a lot better for a while.
You are so fucking lucky that the moth didn?t crawl in further. My father once had a beetle land in his ear. It crawled in further and started to rub up against his eardrum. Needless to say he started acting like a complete madman, I thought he was having a heart attack. He started slamming his head against the walls, punching the side of his head with his own fist. This is the kind of person that got his teeth pulled without any anesthetic, the kind of person who got shot in the knee and went to work the next day. The kind of person that drank hot coffee straight from the fucking coffee maker. My brother drove him to the hospital and they pulled out the bug, it made a huge ?PLOP? sound. It was amazing that a little beetle was able to cause so much pain.
