...cats love the stuff. Take a q-tip and clean your ear, then let the cat sniff the q-tip. Chances are it will try to eat it.
Don’t ask me how I know these things.

Eyebrows are for expressing emotion, and to keep sweat from entering your eyes off the brow. That one’s easy.
Now ear wax:

The absence of ear wax may result in dry, itchy ears, and even infection.

I have heard that it captures some of the vibrations from loud noises so that it doesn’t hurt your ear… :think:

The purpose of earwax is to keep the q-tip company in business.
