I went to the dentists to have my teeth cleaned out and now I feel so... cleansed and purified.

The dentist put a giant cloth over my eyes... then they took some blades and drills (I couldn’t see) and got to work. I could hear all the scraping sounds and there was a bit of pain here and there. He also sprayed some strange sour acid-like thing over the teeth.

15-20 minutes of masterful dental cleaning, he used those teeth mirror stick things to gain visibility and adjust.

Later on I rinsed and spat into the seat-side sink and it was all red... there was some bleeding caused but I do not mind the taste.

However, somehow my teeth gave now become smooth as mirrors. If I run my tongue across the surfaces it’s like smooth marble.

I feel Reborn, Cleansed, Purified

It’s a good feeling

A bad experience with an oral surgeon as a teenager has left me extremely uneasy about anyone poking around inside my mouth. I would have ripped the thing from off my eyes in a nanosecond. Not today, Satan. If you're gonna poke me, I'm gonna watch.

I don't like going to the dentist. I think they like holding contests to see how many instruments they can fit in your mouth?

Welcome to TET,

Tet is an out of character chat thread where we just chew the fat. Unless you are a vegetarian, then I don't know what you chew.

Lot of banned players tend to try and come back, so get use to that.

I think some dogs are pretty cute. Just yesterday I watched a video of a stray dog in Georgia (the ex-Soviet Republic) that was helping kids crossing the street. I thought it looked really adorable. I really hope the dog gets adopted :)
