I thought others may appreciate this Wikipedia image of a piece of human earwax, next to a lighter with 'LOVE' written on it, both placed on what appears to be a single sheet of quilted toilet roll. I know I did. Particularly the description on the main page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earwax), which reads 'Human earwax removed by irrigation (compared with a cigarette lighter)'.

It seems the original poster (a deranged German nurse, from what I can tell) has a history of using obscure objects for the purposes of size referencing - I give you packet of drugs + potted plant (though not sure which is supposed to be highlighting the immensity of which, as regrettably I cannot read German):

"Source
Self-shot photo of my girlfriend's earwax"

Unsettlingly, he appears to be suggesting that the earwax took its own photograph.

He is approximately 12-feet away, as the crow flies.

I'm curious as to why you were looking earwax up on wikipedia?

Nobody should ever find out what makes Tim tick

I was researching self-syringing of one's ears, as I get quite ridiculous wax buildup. Something to which one gentleman off here is more than able to testify, having once eaten a flake made up of several month's worth of harvests. But that's another story.
