I was in a restaurant today and saw a man with a quarter in his ear. Yes a 25 cent coin lodged in his ear just sitting there. I've seen this before and am just extremely curious as to why people do this. I already searched google and only found this

Did he have gauges or was it just literally stuck in the ear itself? Either way, weird.
