The WaxVac has what is unquestionably one of the best commercials on television, to the point where I actually get excited whenever it comes on.

I just love how ludicrously confrontational it is right out of the gate, wasting no time at all in setting itself up as the only sensible alternative to the barbarism of using a Q-Tip to clean your ears.

That they chose to do this by having a grown man jam a cotton swab into his ear and then shriek like he is being murdered with actual knives, a scene so great that they show it twice and then have a frownyz doctor examine the damage? That, my friends, is just a truly beautiful bonus feature.

They do have a point, though.

Every box of cotton swabs does, in fact, carry a warning about how you're not actually supposed to use them to clean out the inside of your ear, which is weird when you consider that this is quite literally the only thing Typ I have ever used them for. Apparently, that's pretty dangerous, as evidenced by their 100% scientific animation of a Q-Tip shoving its way through your eardrum.

I'm one of the very few lucky ones, it seems.

Really, though, I actually went into this one hoping it would work. My own ears are crazy sensitive to moisture, and if I so much as get a stray raindrop in there, they end up aching for days.

It's the reason I almost never go swimming.

Well, that and the fact that I have exactly the body you'd expect from someone who watches infomercials all night. Either way, having something that could get all that moisture out of there before it could cause any problems would be nice, and keeping my earbuds from getting any more gross than they already are wouldn't hurt either.
