Huey The Ear Wax Ball

Back in high school, my buddy Jake had this nasty habit of digging in his ears with a pencil eraser whenever he was bored in class. One day, he struck gold—or rather, a gooey, yellowish lump he proudly named “Huey the Ear Wax Ball.” He rolled it between his fingers under the desk, grinning like he’d just discovered a new species. “Check out Huey,” he whispered, holding it up like a trophy. It was glistening, sticky, and about the size of a pea—easily the grossest thing I’d seen all week.
