Popcorn Ear

When I was 10 years old I went to the Pediatrician for my regularly scheduled checkup. He was checking out my whole entire lean sexy preteen body when he got to my ears.

The left ear was first! This ear was in pristine condition just like it was when I was 9! Next up the right ear! Oh my! As he sticks his tool in my ear he seems to notice a huge build up of wax. It's so much wax or so he thinks that he is going to clean it out for me. He starts working his magic in my right ear and he begins to figure out it's not wax it's something else! He ends up getting the "thing" out of my ear. It's a freaking popcorn kernel! I had a whole unpopped popcorn kernel lodged in my ear and I didn't even know it! I don't know how it got there. I used to eat microwaved popcorn all the time during this time. So what I think happened is that I must have had some popcorn in my hand then scratched the side of my head and a popcorn kernel fell in.

It would of' been awesome if I still had the popcorn kernel. I could've sold it on eBay like it was an aged bottle of wine. If I sold it today the title could be "16 year old Popcorn Kernel aged in Ear Wax Barrel". I'd probably sell it for a lot of money. Those online casinos buy all kinds of crazy shit!

What's the funniest thing any doctor has ever found on you?
