It's happened to all of us...that persistent itch that occurs right in the center of our backs that we can't reach (and there's nobody around to scratch it for us)...

What are some of the unusual things you've used to take care of it?


I have a Japanese letter-opener that looks like a little Samurai sword...and it works perfectly as a back-scratcher!  :D

The handle of a comb, a pen, hair sticks (they look like chopsticks, but you use them to put your hair up)

I can still reach every part of my body rather easily :D  But sometimes I use a Jess.

At work I use a ruler, at home I use Tony  :D

When I'm getting out of the tub-my towel. Or sometimes in the evening/morning, my robe. But usually Carlos.

Well, aren't you flexible!  :D

I can use my own hands actually. I look kinda dumb, but I can work it out somehow, lol.

The remote, a brush, spatula.

The remote...

LOL!  That's a good one!  ;D 8)

I live in an old house, so I just use the corners of a doorway.....works great and if I'm not at home whatever is handy....a hairbrush, comb, ink pen, you name it

That's one of my methods, I sort of look like you're avatar.  ;D

I also use the back of a hammer, a crowbar a tree branch or just about anything.

Funny, I was thinking about this last night as my back itched. ;D

I used a pen then.  Sometimes I can reach it with my hands.  Other times it's a pen, scissors, lighter, Missing Link™ game...whatever's nearby that'll do the trick.

I have used just about anything:  a pen, comb, fork, doorframe....but, like Rice & hot stuff, I can still reach all of my body.....I use other things when my nails just aren't getting the job done.  I found these awesome bamboo back scratchers at Pier 1 that I got for my mom.  She accidentally stepped on one and she found some more online so she bought 12 :o ;D

I'll use anything. the most dangerous thing I've used is a steak knife, but it's no big deal, you just have to go slow and be careful.  I do have a back scratcher which i got about 10 years ago at MarineWorld theme park. it's a little red monkey and he has both hands out and you use his hands/fingers to scratch. it's excellent.

We have this bumpy finish on some of our walls in the house...and let me tell you....it makes for a great back scratcher!! :D ;D  Vaughn also ends up scratching my back when needed.

I can still reach every part of my body rather easily :D 


Me too...

I've always used the edge of a wall, even if i'm outside.  Brick walls work awesome LOL

I am the backscratcher for Lady Di and I haven't trimmed my nails in a couple of weeks so they oughta be just perfect

My tongue...









(There! That got everyone's attention!  ;))

More usually, the edge of a doorframe...

My tongue...

I hope you're talking about scratching someone else's "itch" ;)

If not, then :o :o

ROFL!  ;D

I knew this guy who went into an Asian goods store because he wanted one of those sticks you use with I Ching-looks something like this:

So he asked for I Ching sticks (pronouced E Ching). After awhile of trying to explain what he wanted, the guy finally understood and went into the back room only to return with a back scratcher.  ;D ;D
