2. Does this make you incredibly anxious (to squeeze)?

Then you're in the right place.

Don't turn back now! We're just getting to the good stuff.
8. Brace yourself. It's time for the cysts: Gary's classic clip is a great initiation, and will make you say "aaahhhh" in more ways than one.
9. This 20-year-old sebaceous cyst was named George by its owner. Revel in Operation Kill George.

10. There's something especially cathartic about these perfect rivulets.
11. And now for something a little different. I won't ruin the surprise for you on what's living in this dude's ear, but it's fucking insane when they get it out.

Not for the faint of heart.

Doesn't that feel better?
Note: Again, don't try these at home! Most of these procedures, though fun to watch, are pretty unsanitary. If you have a cyst that's causing you pain, visit a doctor ASAP. Popping it yourself can cause it to become infected, or drain improperly, making it even worse. No judgment on what you do with your whiteheads, though.
