Today, I found out that my son has been trying to save enough of his earwax to make a candle. FML

Sure, right now it seems odd- but just wait till there's a black out. Who knows, maybe having a twisted son could be a blessing in disguise.

I'm pretty sure there's a Calvin and Hobbes strip about this too...

There is; I loved that comic! "Mom, do we have any string?" "Sure Calvin, what for?" "I'm saving up my earwax to make a candle." "Oh Calvin-! Bleeugh!" "Can at least make a box of crayons?"

You should replace the earwax with q-tips and say the EarGods are trying to tell him something.

No, there is only a third Shrek. OP's son, is going to star in the fourth.

At least he's trying to be creative

Maybe with all his wax cleared out he'll listen to you better. This is actually to your benefit.

Too much of it impedes hearing like an earplug.

except it doesnt work, disproved on mythbusters..

I've seen ads about people who can supposedly help clear all the wax out of your ears and make it into candles. Not sure if it's guaranteed to work though

"Today, I found out my son is ambitious. FML" there's always a bright side... Kinda
