Would anyone consider sending me their tonsil stones (I have no tonsils.)? I want to start collecting something new, as my toenail and scab collection are losing their charm and original appeal. Please send only intact stones, I will pay top dollar for the largest specimens. ---

The q-tip in the tonsils is NOT the same one that went in the ear. Question… If I shove a q-tip far enough into the tonsil hole, with it come OUT my ear? :dubious: ---

> [@phouka](#): > > Yep, I had 'em. Didn’t know I did, until one evening, my tonsils were itching fit to drive me insane. I gently scratched the right side one and found a little bump - just like a zit. So, I scraped it, and out popped this _chunk_ the size of my pinky fingernail. And it _smeeellllled_! Boy, howdy, that puppy smelled. > > But my tonsil felt so much better, I couldn’t believe it. > > The next night I tried again, and got a bunch of little chunks out of the same spot. Never could get the left tonsil to pop like that, and eventually I had both of them removed. > > My mom, the RN, was so fascinated, she demanded to watch me pop my tonsils. Nothing like a little stage fright to keep a gal from oral hygeine. Of course, she was totally grossed out by what my throat looked like while it as healing from the tonsilectomy. Strange, strange woman. **Phouka** , This post borders on erotica. ---

I can’t find my tonsils! If someone took them out, they didn’t ever bother to tell me :mad:. Should they be easily visible when looking in my mouth with a mirror? ---

_begins to recite the Lord’s Prayer in hopes that it will make this all go away_ How absolutely horrifying. This is one of those things that makes me deeply ashamed to be a human being. Bodies shouldn’t do this. And, given my tendencies towards picking at things, I feel the sudden need to probe my throat with a Q-tip just so I can be nice and clean back there. Excuse me while I go kill myself. ---
