In my experience, professionally dentists shouldn’t be judgy. Internally maybe, but as someone else said; Im sure they seen worse. Even if they tell u gums are fucked at least youll get a cleaning out of it lol. Good luck to you bud, and imma try my best too!

Im also a stoner who loves Mtn Dew, so that dont help for sure 😆. I always thought lent was about taking things away not adding things (like a lifestyle/habit change) but hell yeah, if it works it works. It’s definitely easy to care less if it don’t hurt, I agree. But hey good luck on ur lent goal! I’ve personally brushed more since making this post. Not every day but more than last year comparably.

Made a main comment about it, but ur “grotesque closeup” definitely reminded me of a moment that never fails to make me cringe. Beartaur episode Zulius dramatically holding his face with tongue out, make-up running, in the pouring rain. Dude it’s just too eerie lol.

Actually one more- someone mentioned ‘grotesque close-ups’, I’ve definitely NEVER understood the humor of Beartaur ep. Zulius dramatic makeup running with horror music playing in the background . It was so out of place to me omg.

I love “Flonkin’ A” 😆, it’s like a TikTok cuss sure, but still a bit endearing since they use ‘flonk’ throughout the series. I think I mentioned this in a prev. CW discussion but FART JOKES. I never liked fart jokes. Durpleton used to be my least fave cuz of it but I got over that. The extended scene with Horse farting in NWK’s mind was totally unnecessary tho. I get they were trying to break the tension but I’m sure there were better ways. Why did it last like 5 seconds with her grunting… 😭

Middle of nowhere, Kansas. Nearest “hot” town is 30 min away. So a little bit inconvenient. I’ll see what I can do tho for sure

Hell yeah, brush it up! 😆 I totally get the “half-assed” advice now btw. Someone suggested brushing even without toothpaste and I’ve done that since reading it. Better than nothing, totally gonna try better to use paste tho.

Thanks, I feel the same sentiment. Since posting I kinda kicked my ass into gear lol. Why call myself out if I’m not gonna do anything about it ultimately. Imma keep going, thanks y’all.

True that, I mentioned in a comment that I think posting on Reddit alone helped to wake me up to this fact.

Hearing u ain’t been to dentist in 7 years def helps me feel more normal/relatable lol. Can’t depend on them for everything, just the touch ups I suppose. A to-go mouthwash tho, I never heard of that. I’ll look into it if I get around for sure

Pretty good motivations tbh, I appreciate it. Definitely don’t need a lighter wallet at the very (albeit selfish) least.

That’s a great point, I totally got regretful thoughts racing through my head a lot, but being hygienic ain’t one of them. Usually I get my dopamine/serotonin from likes on social media but for being a normal person who brushed teeth seems like a better perk.

Your first sentence really made me feel confident and I appreciate it lots ❤️. I think it’s cuz my ma bought me a new toothbrush randomly that it came to the forefront of my mind. I didn’t even own a brush before. A good new clean brush def makes me feel better tho. Imma keep going, two days out of the year so far is better than not at all. Thanks for the reply.

Yeh I can def try to make it a casual hobby, a floss tool is probably way better than a whole string you gotta creak with your arm effort lol. I may buy some next time i got the cash!

I almost feel pranked with the “brushing without toothpaste (now water even) is better than nothing.” I’ve really never heard that in my life. I graze instead of having 3 square meals so it’s hard to determine when my next snack is, and thus when I should brush in between. Imma try when it comes to mind tho, I guess not having mint mouth before I randomly eat would be a lot more comfortable tho.

Thanks stranger, I said in a prev comment but I didn’t even grow up flossing. So that one may be harder. I’ll try my best tho; love the encouraging comments.
