I'm pretty sure Andy Bell has nothing to do with tonsil stones. Though by the recent look of his aging bloated face, he may suffer from them. Poor fellow.

This video is disgusting. I can't imagine how horrible that putrid thing must smell!

Tastes like plaque buildup, smells like pickles that have had the vinegar removed, and has the consistency of chalk packed together like a snowball.

When I returned in a few years time the link changed to some kids dick cheese extraction. I didn't expect this at all.

also the music to this really makes me want to high five someone.

music makes me want to hit the "Z" key over and over again

Music wants to make me gag to the rhythm.

It's not a hygiene or infectious thing, they're "tonsiloliths" and they form because part of the natural function of a tonsil is to trap potentially bad particles in mucus and let white blood cells go to work on them. The tonsilolith is the byproduct and is usually ejected from the tonsil while smaller than a pea.

This poor guy apparently had a tonsilolith that didn't eject, got caught, kept building up tonsiloliths behind it, and turned into a mess. Just a case of bad physiology, not neglect or infection.

So, if you're like me and still have your tonsils, warm salt water gargles and/or vigorous Listerine rinses should be a part of your normal hygiene routine as this helps minimize tonsiloliths.

*high fives you*

No, I ate some pepperoncinis last night just to make my farts extra bogus today.
