    “Misuse”

    You can take my Q-tips from deep within my cold, dead ear canals.

        It’s just a convention look the proper tense is willen haven beenen III esq. but when you got as deep into time travel as star trek did it was easier just to use past tense all the time

              This is insane one minute we’re talking about typos then some time traveling dingus pops in says he’s the personification of “to be” doesn’t have any future Q-tips to prove their timeline and suddenly I’m on trail for what? It’s a kangaroo court.

    Yeah, you have to be wary of using tips from Q, it can feel right but there are reasons for concern, misuse can cause unintended consequences.

        I should have specified “for my phone.” I use Paint.net on the computer already. Really just want a lasso tool and stroke on the text with something on Android for quick shitposts.

          Gotcha. I wish I knew something what could help. I’m a novice at all this. I just discovered meme it so like a week ago. Still trying to figure out where all the other resources are.

      It would still be the standard issue Q-Tip, but by regulation you can not go deeper than the exterior.

      Nothing. Your ears are self-cleaning unless you got a medical condition.

          Talk with your doctor about that, but typically that shouldn’t happen under normal conditions, though some people’s ear canals are narrower where that can occur more often. There are proper unclogging medications you can use for that.
