 * Haha. It was spun off less than 24 hours before you posted this. ;) &mdash; RevRagnarok  Talk Contrib 13:26, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I did the deed :) I apologize to those who wrote the bulk of the article when it was still a section in earwax, their work and effort does not show up in the history of this article. However, I think the item deserves it's own article since it really a unique thing on its own with its unique history and cultural connections. Sjschen 22:04, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I'm wary of doing it so often that it's not as soothing anymore. Pomte 07:35, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

Boy oh boy do I agree, it feels amazing. But as Pomte said, doing it too many times lose it's charms, kind of like sex.{{Subst:unsigned|24.224.154.12}

No, no, no! Removing earwax hurts like hell, especially when you have a mother eager to test your new earpicker, and shot to shoves it so far in your ear canal, you're thinking "Well, my eardum's gonna be shot to hell." Fortunately, that hasn't happened...yet. -- John R. Sellers 01:35, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Danger warning needed
However nice it may feel, it is a dangerous practice. See the external links in the ear wax article, and some of the discussion. 80.2.194.3 12:57, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

Yea this looks totally like a good idea. Next up---using knitting needles to clean your ears. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.47.15.38 (talk) 20:43, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

No more dangerous than cotton swabs, and more effective for the admittedly dubious purpose, silly ethnocentrists.122.102.238.156 (talk) 01:05, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Bohemian Earspoon
The search box was sending people to the ear pick article when searching for "earspoon". I added a disambiguation hat for the intended article about the European pole-arm known as the "Bohemian Earspoon". Bosef1 (talk) 22:30, 24 July 2020 (UTC)
