On the subject of bogie's I have a little tale to tell..........many years ago I worked in a factory that made overalls....lots of ladies on sewing machines busy working all day.........one type of overall was particularly dark blue and rather heavy material....lots of particles of fluff being breathed up our nostrils resulted in lots of very dark blue bogie's.
Being ladies, we all , at some point in time had been to the toilet to removed accumulated nose fluff.....but then someone wiped one on the wall..........it had a landslide affect of ( probably ) every lady in the factory joining in...........lol

The management had to put up " NO BOGIE " signs in each cubicle...........lol

in my professional opinion

based on my vast experience of syringing hundreds of ears of all shapes and sizes

i would say the average ear contains approx

half a teaspoon of wax
