TIL: If a fly gets so deep in your ear you can’t even see it, pour some baby oil in. It encapsulates the fly and eventually it will slip out. (www.mayoclinic.org)

Great TIL, I hate it.

Excellent how the page alludes to other horrible things to imagine, like "don't pour hot oil into your ear", and "don't pour it in if there's a hole in your eardrum"
