Because, you know, the kitchen knife was unsuccessful as a pry bar, but MY TEETH were going to be able to dislodge the stupid thing.

That's those? I was lunging at my food, grabbing it, and then shaking it to kill it before I swallowed it because that's what human Tyranosauruses do. And then a fork--which were definitely NOT around in Tyranosaurus times, otherwise they would have found a better, safer way to eat--messed me all up. And then I had to get a root canal later, which, seriously, don't get a root canal. Really.<br />This always comes up (even though I have the option for it not to) when there is a conversation about chipping teeth, which, you know, is maybe... once a year? Every eighteen months? And every time, the reaction is something along the lines of "Oh man, that sucks. How old were you?" And then I get all squirmy and sweaty. "Like... seven... ...teen..." I should have known better, I guess, but I may or may not have killed my food this way again on a few (read: many) occasions since. It's just fun, and if that's wrong, well then, I don't want to be right unless I have to get another root canal.Kent Walterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15682799670756851242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4643741973264866223.post-576563425987169422010-04-04T12:16:24.911-06:002010-04-04T12:16:24.911-06:00Chipped my tooth which I had previously chipped tw...Chipped my tooth which I had previously chipped two times before...

So, I decided to start from the beginning and read all of your posts. Anyway, my point was that I cracked my head open when I was 2 and I still VERY CLEARLY remember having to get stitches. I had the same traumatizing type of experience you had, only I didn't get a lollipop at the end :( I remember that my mom was not allowed to be with me and that I was laying down on this bed, with doctors looking down at me. Then I saw the needle. I was terrified and scared and wanted my mommy, dammit, but they are communist fucks who like to see children cry. Maybe they aren't communists, but I'm sure the second part is true.Kr!st!nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06455806081641406873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4643741973264866223.post-69671567234931760622009-11-11T15:38:22.913-07:002009-11-11T15:38:22.913-07:00I dunno what Google was smoking, but it means exac...I dunno what Google was smoking, but it means <a href="http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/rabidity" rel="nofollow">exactly what you thought it meant</a>.Twewinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4643741973264866223.post-89468670724431941672009-11-11T12:25:44.739-07:002009-11-11T12:25:44.739-07:00You are very entertaining.
