I fear this is becoming a pattern, but I am going to again respond to you by freakishly parroting an obscure Penn Jillette story in a way that is not at all stalkerish:
Penn was a great fan of Q-tips, until he perforated his eardrum, had an infection develop, and had to have surgery under general anesthesia. He is virtually deaf in that ear.
I am not stalkerish for knowing this fact, because I can't remember which ear it was.
Anyway, the moral of this story is, never put anything in your ear that's larger than your pinky finger. Also, and this is my personal tip, always be very careful when using earplugs to gently break the vacuum seal before pulling them out of your ear. 'Cause ouch.
