They say, "don't put anything bigger than your elbow in your ear.". But I don't understand that statement because anything bigger than your elbow doesn't fit inside your ear. That's like saying "no walking on the ceiling"
IIRC the phrase is
don't put anything except your elbow in your ear, which is to say
don't put anything in your ear because it's physically impossible to insert one's elbow.
I've also encountered it as
don't put anything smaller than your elbow in your ear, with the same implication.
