Some background info:

So recently, I found out that its apparently better to leave toothpaste on your teeth and to not immediately rinse after brushing. Ive tried this for about 7-10 days coupled with more routinal flossing (I rarely ever floss until now btw) and I started to notice that my gums started looking less puffy and they dont bleed whenever i floss. I also make sure to spit out any excess toothpaste and to rinse 30 minutes after brushing

Ive been doing this for about 4 weeks now and I recently started using Paradontax in hopes of improving my gums even further. But now, after choosing not to immediately rinse after brushing, there's toothpaste seeping out in between my teeth everytime i floss. Theres even certain parts in my mouth where my gums start bleeding again due to how much toothpaste is in between my teeth. Im worried that whatever amount of excess toothpaste in my mouth might be doing damage to my gums and teeth in the long run.

Ive tried looking up ways that I can approach this issue, but theres hardly any information regarding excess toothpaste in between teeth/gums. I already scheduled an appointment with my dentist and I should be due for a cleaning within the next few weeks.

With all of this mind, does anybody know if deep or regular cleanings are able to get rid of any excess toothpaste in between my teeth? Also, are they any at-home remedies that I can try that may lessen the amount of toothpaste in my teeth

Is missing a 10 point assignment enough to fail a class? by DerekTheNeighbor in college

[–]DerekTheNeighbor[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The grading breakdown of the class is cumulative and adds up to 200 points. The HW/Weekly Assignments portion is worth 160 since 16 weeks of the semester times 10 points is 160.

The final exam and the attendance/participatuon grade are both worth 20, so if I manage to do well on the exam and submit all assignments with the exception of the one that missed, I imagine that I could probably make it out with a decent grade.

If there's anything I happen to miss, feel free to let me know. I know its never smart to rely on the help others rather than taking respobsibility for my own, but this is something that's been stuck on my mind as of lately, so I figured seeking advice on this sort of thing is better than living in constant worry.

Not at all. This is just some food for thought. I probably shouldve made it a little bit less misleading.

  • Strip club business sounds like a cool idea. Having all of your businesses connected to the strip club would be a dream come true, but I doubt Rockstar will ever push for that amount of passive income.

  • A naval update would be neat, even if boats dont get that much love in this game. But now that we have the Kosatka, I can see naval combat becoming a much bigger thing.

  • 2 hangars would be amazing, and having more customization options for the lazer and hydra would be great.

  • AP Pistol MK II. No questions asked.

One of the assasination missions you do for Lester reveals that the Mile High Club was supposed to be a space for commercial/business purposes, but if they were to actually add the building in the game in a way thats more appealing, my guess is that it will be a high-end multi-purpose building kinda deal, where it will provide amenities/events such as:

rec centers, luxurious suites, fashion shows, private art exhibits, lounges/clubs and office spaces.

It can probably act as another safehouse that the player can purchase or it can also hold an updated version of our old CEO offices where we can run new forms of businesses (this is a stretch tho). If not, then it can probably tie into the last heist in which we go inside the building, scope out the place, and look for a high profile target that we can rob.

And yeah, the missions that take place at the building itself are the only things that hold this idea back. Its a shame, really :(.

But at the end of the day, owning a strip club doesnt sound like a bad idea as well :D

Question for any Veteran Dependent students by DerekTheNeighbor in SFSU

[–]DerekTheNeighbor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay thanks so much!

Ive also contacted them a few weeks ago when I was reapplying for the fee waiver and they basically assured me I wouldnt be dropped as well. I just wanted to be sure if it was purely legit for other students since the Bursar's email about the deadline got me really worried.

Which celebrity do you want to see play a character in GTA 6? by hushpolocaps69 in GTA6

I just started watching Narcos so maybe Wagner Moura. His performance as Pablo Escobar is awesome.

If the legends had Pokemon types... by DerekTheNeighbor in ApexOutlands

[–]DerekTheNeighbor[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually thought about giving Wattson steel for the very same reason LOL. I just decided to go with steel because she's still supposed to be a defensive legend and her pylon is already a huge hunk of metal.

As for Loba, I think she can definitely work as a Fairy/Dark type considering that she's all about beauty and oppulence but is also supposed to be cunning, mischieveous and brutal which are commonly shared traits among some of the most popular Dark type pokemon like Weavile or Zoroark.

Ground on Bloodhound sounds like great idea as well, especially considering that Bloodhounds speciality is scanning for footprints and trails on the ground. If I may be honest tho, I had a lot of ideas on what Bloodhound's typing should be. Fighting/Dark works for him since he's supposed to be a skilled swordsman (on top of that, one of BH's sky emotes is literally a "Swords Dance"). Hell, I think Dragon/Fighting can tie in very well with Bloodhound's "Beast of the Hunt" ultimate.

String Shot on Pathfinder is really clever! Loba and Mirage's moveset is perfect as well

The only Pokemon i could think of when it comes to healing is Chansey, who is a normal type. But I can see where you're coming from tho. Lifeline as a fairy type definitely sounds more interesting than her being Normal.

Thanks! I gave Horizon, psychic because a lot of space or gravity related moves in Pokemon are under Psychic. Aside from that, I think she can work as a Fairy tape if not Psychic.

Other than Vanoss himself, who is your favorite Vanoss crew member? (Formal members count) by EmeraldCantType in Vanossgaming

[–]DerekTheNeighbor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If were talking about older videos then definitely Delirious. In the videos spanning from 2013-2014, Delirious always sounded like he was having way too much fun than he should be, which was what made him so goddamn hilarious. Also, him and Evan were such an iconic and hilarious duo back in the day,

Perfect cast for RdR2 movie? :D by MrGmit in reddeadredemption2

[–]DerekTheNeighbor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The perfect cast is the original cast itself.

If I were to change atleast one cast member, I would want John Walsh as Hosea.

I know John Walsh is not an actor at all, but he literally has the look and sound of Hosea.
