THE Q-TIP. NEITHER A Q NOR A TIP. DISCUSS.
Some days, I ponder the most preposterous things. For instance, sometimes when I move my hands purposely, I imagine my bare skeletal hands moving. For me, it’s the coolest thing to think about. To others, it’s Missy just being weird. So, today’s strange thought is about Q-Tips.
The Q-Tip is neither in the shape of a Q nor is it a tip. I think of it as having two ends, not a tip. To each their own though. So what is with the name? According to Wikipedia, the reputable source of all things wanting to be known (she said sarcastically), the Q stands for quality (Cotton Swab, 2014).
I find myself staring at that box of Q-Tips daily as it has found a home on the bathroom sink. The Q-Tip has become a staple in this household. Have any of you realized exactly how much you use Q-Tips? I clean my ears daily, use them to meticulously perfect my mani and pedi, and I use them to apply my eyeshadow. They really do have everyday uses and yet are not thought of as an item of importance. Well, I am here to tell you the Q-Tip is important! At least the Q-Tip is important to me.
