Dull Men's Club
An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I knew this guy who spent an evening in his local, and whilst unlocking his house door, a moth flew into his ear.
It was alive and the buzzing in his ear was deafening and incessant, and he had no idea how to remove the moth.
He awakened his sleeping wife, who, in her fog, basically told him to 'fuck off and figure it out'.
Moments later she was awakened again. To the sound of the vacuum cleaner: he was trying to suction it out of his ear.
Not sure if his alcohol-impaired brain was the root cause of this tomfoolery, as he may have done the same thing sober.
Anyway, iirc, they went to the 24hr walk-in, where the simple solution was effected: a drop or two of vegetable oil in the ear canal, moth succumbs....
