Fuck not brushing your teeth regularly and having unbrushed teeth from lunch till night time.
I try to brush my teeth three times a day. Used to have regular issues, now I don’t and my teeth are less yellow.
No brainer.
to be fair, everyone’s teeth are different - some people just get blessed with healthy teeth, and if you don’t eat messy, you might be good with a sip of water in between morning / evening tooth brushing. After all, cave men also didn’t get caries in their 20-something years of life at least.
While it’s true that some people inherit the genes for harder enamel, which goes a long way toward determining how scrupulous a person has to be about their dental hygiene, it wasn’t until very recently that we had diets filled with refined sugar.
This is why instead of brushing and flossing I just gnaw on roadkill.
Hey, there’s no sugar in MY diet. Only high fructose corn syrup.
In everything.

I just don’t stop brushing. Every second you’re not brushing, you’re letting bacteria fester in your mouth.
Some people have toothpics in their mouth, I have a whole toothbrush.
I think every three weeks is reasonable.
I found out in some cultures brushing your teeth three times a day is the norm.
I asked my dentist about it and he said if you brush twice a day and floss once a day that’s the most important. You’re better off doing something else, like not eating sugar, probably won’t get much benefit from brushing three times a day.
Maybe you need a better electric toothbrush or your toothpaste is shit?
That and following any “bad for teeth” food or drink with something neutral/good to mean it’s not just sitting there.
Glass of water after sweets/coffee/coke/etc…
I just found out my daughter’s best friend only brushes once a day at bedtime. They’re 11. I truly question some parents.
Coincidentally whenever they’re facetiming I always yell in the background if she brushed her teeth this morning.
I see you Cecily. Your parents may not but I do. Brush your damn teeth!
Once a day isn’t crazy if she doesn’t eat tons of sugar.
I’m a school bus driver and one of the girls on my bus this morning was complaining about her teeth being yellow. I asked her if she brushes them and she said “no” like I had asked her if she could fly. TBF we think her mom steals her medication so her lack of basic life skills is understandable.
What the hell lol, what exactly did he do?
a hardcore rightwing republican got caught soliciting a gay sex bathroom hookup and then tired to play it off as if he was simply shitting with his legs so wide his feet went into the adjacent stalls.
Hah, classic republican antics.
- Drinking at 6am - Christmas Day.
- Sleeping on floor - After night out smashed.
- Brushing teeth in public bathroom - After getting smashed and sleeping on the floor, heading to work.
- $10 Water - Never acceptable.
- Pyjamas - You ever been in a council estate.
Pyjamas - You ever been in a council estate.
you don’t have to get dressed when you’re still in the estate mum. it’s not like going OUT.
My line is, I can go out in my dressing gown so long as I’m within sight of the house.
And I can drive in my dressing gown to drop someone off, so long as it’s inside town.Out out?
oot and aboot
Are airports as a whole liminal spaces?
Flying into small fields in a small plane can be an interesting experience; some are actually quite busy, they’ll either have a popular mechanic shop on the field, a busy local flight school, or it’s a destination for business jet travel because of a local golf course or something. Others are almost abandoned, which can be an interesting experience to visit.
Yes. Especially the bits that connect multiple concourses on foot.
Yes.
But one can be a bit more specific and think of their long corridors as liminal spaces, but the cafés and stores in them as not. I flu a few times per year out of the same airport, and typically wait in the same café for over one hour. I use this time to rest a bit before getting on the flight and eat something, and it doesn’t feel liminal at all.
An airport fits the definition pretty well
unless you’re a staff member
Honestly, we should have the suited up janitors walking around hosing people down with sanitizer.
You mean it’s NOT common practice to do all these things at Wal-Mart??

Awfully lot like Indian railway stations
Drinking tomato juice (more related to the airplane). WTF! never seen it in vending machines, offered on tap, in fast food joints …
But 9/10 times someone in my hearing range orders a tomato juice to chillax and drink that sweet thick pseudo-ketchup.
It is a travesty you can’t buy it in more places. I typically ask for a virgin Bloody Mary instead.
I order. I use it to mix in my airplane bottle of vodka and the others you mention are probably doing it as well.
Tomato juice has a considerable amount of sodium in it. I wonder if there’s some sort of correlation?

I bet Diogenes would pay the senate to let him live in an airport.
Why would the Cynic pay for something, especially to the Senate?
It’s a reference to the time Diogenes payed the senate to be able to live in a Market.
Mine has free water fountains but yeah…
2, 3, and 4, sure, but 1, 5, and 6 are common in many non-airport locations
1 for short-haul and 6 for layover longhaul. Or being in an airport that weirdly doesn’t have public transport early morning but has early flights.
No excuse for 5. Society is degrading.
I don’t think it’s common to sleep on the floor in public. Even those who do are typically homeless and many don’t think that’s socially acceptable.
Since when are we not brushing our teeth in public bathrooms? Hell they’ve even got outlets so that you can shave!
please don’t shave into sinks, that’s how you create horrible clogs
just shave onto the sink and gather it up with a tissue paper and toss it in the trash can
Yeah I’m thinking like a daily shave, like just to get stubble, not like clipping any real amount of length. That’s closer to a haircut lol
That’s like, the least weird thing I pull in public bathrooms.
No… it’s not acceptable to sleep on the floor. And It’s not ok to walk around in pajamas.
Those people can go fuck themselves with Vaseline and sea-salt.
And seriously. You can just ask for some water at any bar or coffeeshop.

Maybe at American airports; I don’t remember the last time I tried. I do remember trying at the Frankfurt airport and being rudely disabused of the idea. May have been 10 euros for water—8, at least.
Frankfurt has water fountains all over. How you miss them is beyond me. But maybe you were there 20 years ago, what do I know.
I don’t doubt that there are—and were—water fountains around. It was in a cafe at the airport; I asked for a glass of water (to go with my sandwich or something, I don’t recall) and the woman actually said to me, “In Germany, we pay for our water!” So you can see why it would stick with me. This was ~10 years ago.
Walk around in pyjamas, who cares? Oooohh, that person dresses different from how I like it, KILL ZHEM!
Sleeping on the floor? Been there. Wouldn’t have to if airport designs, you know, the places where people many times need to stay for an entire night, were not so hostile to sleeping anywhere. If those benches would allow a person to lay down when needed and nobody is around, it’d be so much nicer. That kind of also applies to cities and the homeless, but I digress.
And yeah, you can ask for some water.you have to eat there then, though, and can’t just get a nice big bottle that you need.
Airports generally suck
Oooohh, that person dresses different from how I like it, KILL ZHEM!
Jfc mate, chill out a bit.
Who’s talking about killing? Why are you escalating it?
And no. Just ask for water. You ndont HAVE to eat there.
Disagree. I will wear my most comfortable clothes. I will sit wherever I want, which includes the floor. I will sleep if delayed, even 30 min. I will not judge others for anything they have to do to get through that nonsense.
Ofc you disagree, you’re an offender. You treat the airport as if it’s your own living-room with no disregard for other people or decorum.
Bet you chew with your mouth open too
Are you one of those people who demand cashiers to be standing?
Nope. Any other stupid questions?
we need to normalize walking around in pajamas in any and all locales.
so comfy
Drinking before 6AM? LOL
There are already people bellied up to the bar as soon as it opens in airports.
I ordered a bloody Mary at an airport in Florida and the bartender looked at me, indignant, and said “sir, it is ILLEGAL to serve alcohol before 8am in this county.”
Bro, you are the one peddling addictive substances in an airport. Get off my case. For me it was midnight a few hours ago.
But it’s always before 8AM! What’s his imaginary cut off time where the previous night ends and the new day begins?
In the places I’ve lived (all US), no businesses could sell alcohol between the hours of 2am and 6am, and some alcohol licenses have even more limited hours. I’m pretty sure I overheard a cashier at the Target near my parents’ place telling a customer that they couldn’t sell alcohol until 8a, and I believe I’ve encountered some alcohol licenses with a cutoff as early as 10p.
I hear that some regions don’t allow alcohol sales at all on Sundays, but luckily I’ve never lived in any of those places.Ah yes, substance abuse is cured in the land of the free :D
TX had similar bullshit (nothing until 11) when I was there working overnights. It’s my 8pm. I’ve been up keeping patients alive all night. Make my drink.
Be me, keep a toothbrush and toothpaste at work so I can brush my teeth after lunch in the employee restroom.
Me too! Every morning after coffee. I work from home now, but I did this every day.
I heard from dentists it was better to do it before eating or drinking anything, as you’ve coated your mouth in the good shit to protect it. But I guess it’s splitting hairs.
I guess consistency is more important for overall dental health.
Hope you’re waiting around 15 minutes after finishing that coffee and having a drink/rinse with water before you brush, otherwise you risk damaging your enamel
A lot of Japan does this, actually.
