LMFAO

So here's a new question.  I just got one of those fancy Oral-B/Braun electric toothbrushes that my dentist has been on my ass to use for years now.  Dude, was she ever right.  I'm a jackass for waiting this long.  Fargin' thing is great.  Anyway, it's cordless, with a charging base.  But it's for brushing your teeth, which is a wet, messy affair by definition.  So the thing is sealed completely in plastic, or so it appears.  The base of the handle is certainly all plastic..even inside the recess which connects to the base, which is ALSO all plastic.  No metal visible anywhere.

How is this thing charging through plastic?

OK, my wife has been raving about the electric toothbrush the dentist had her get and has been trying to get me to use one that she got for me.  I have been resistant, thinking the old reliable toothbrush was easier.  After seeing some of these posts, I tried it this morning for the first time.  Not bad and I suppose it is more thorough.

Of course the wife thought it was disturbing that I try something based on posters at Concretefield but have resisted her suggestions.  She was impressed with the whole magnetic charging thing and I am sure to push the charging station far from my testicular area.

You might consider letting her think you've taken her advice.  It could be useful for you.

Good call.

Too late.  I did say it was a culmination of hearing it from her and from others.  Like most, I don't like to be pressured into trying something, but if I hear enough good things about a product, I may try it.

If we're not supposed to eat animals, then how come they're made of meat?

Or, more importantly, if we were only meant to eat vegetables, why can we digest fat?

[Diomedes]

Don't some vegetables contain fat?  Avocado, for example?

[Zanshin]

Yep.  Olives, Corn, etc.

What would I do with my flesh tearing teeth if it weren't for delicious animals?

To speak to a few of these posts with one idea:

I enjoy eating a pink-on-the-inside cut of corn-fed moo-cow, and then I brush my teeth with a Sonicare Elite.

In the diner today,
Why is it sometimes jelly and sometimes jam?  And what exactly makes it marmelade?

[ice grillin you]

jam has discernable pieces of fruit in it...jelly is all smooth...i believe thats the difference

i have no idea what marmalade is nor do i care to know

[BigEd76]

jelly = jelled fruit juice + sugar
jam = boiled/crushed fruit + sugar
marmalade = pulp 'n rind  (IGY, this stuff is usually made from oranges)

Why doesn't 95% of the country know what dippy eggs are?  And more importantly, why to they lack the mental capacity to figure it out for themselves? 

[rjs246]

Dippy eggs is 100% Pennsylvania. I grew up saying it and have never met anyone from anywhere other than PA who said it.
