➡New Rules
Under new management and subject to change
- Be nice and observe Reddiquette. Absolutely no racism, lgbtq-phobia, bullying, sexual harassment, sexism, etc. Breaking this rule could result in a permanent, no-warning ban. This is your warning.
- NO FOOD
- Stolen content is not allowed. If you started your own YouTube channel, website or any other platform for the purpose of posting other people's videos, the post will be removed and your account banned. If you accidentally post content from a source like this we will let you know and remove the post.
- Do not ask for or give medical advice. Nobody here is a doctor, and they're definitely not your doctor. If you are a doctor, nobody here is your patient. Something a patient would ask a doctor, or a doctor would tell a patient, violates this rule. The moderators reserve the right to apply this rule as they see fit.
- Remember to flair your post. Review the rule in detail here
- Tag NSFW appropriately, no minors in NSFW posts. Also remember to use the Spoiler tag for any post involving animals.
- Get permission if you're posting a friend's face.

- Post Wacky Wednesday content only on Wednesdays (00:00 UTC-0 until 23:59 UTC-0) Keep restricted content to Wacky Wednesdays only. Review the rule in detail here
- No comments about hygiene Please be courteous. We want people to post, but we don't want them to have to worry about being insulted and critiqued on anything but the actual pop. We welcome everyone, and we love this community, so please help us make it better.
- Insects/parasites Mark all insect/parasite posts using the spoiler option so it hides the image
- No sexual comments/harassment It doesn't seem like this needs to be said, but any sexual comments/harassment will result in a permanent ban. This isn't the sub for that sort of content.
- No soliciting fundraisers.

Blackhead on my back
First, I apologize for the blackhead moving out of the shot at certain times. This is on my back by my right shoulder blade and extremely hard to get to. My GOOD-time extractor is already a little bent from me doing this so much 😂 This sucker refills every couple of months. This is after not popping for several months (6+). I think it’s gods biggest joke on me ever to make me a popaholic but then put this amazing blackhead in such a crappy place on my body. My husband refuses to pop it for me so we can film and get it cleaned out more. We’ll settle for this.

Forbidden pop on my finger
My cat decided she wanted to try and jump onto a hot stove while I was cooking. Pushed the pan away and had to practically karate chop her mid air. She will be locked away when any cooking happens now

MRI - Maxillary Sinus Cyst
Long time lurker, first time poster. Please enjoy this MRI scan of my noggin’.
Got a head MRI for the first time in my life. 0/10 for super sound sensitive folk like me. Even with ear plugs and the sound of the MRI whirling, I could hear the music the techs were playing in the control room. Anyways, went to see why I was having migraines / headaches constantly and found out I got a huge cyst in my right maxillary sinus. (I do not recommend the surgery squeamish peeps looking up how they remove sinus cysts.) So this will make 1 of the 4 other surgeries I’m gonna need this year. 🫠
