Braces for teeth or for trousers?

If the latter, I can understand her not wanting to be seen; they're a strange and terrible contraption, no idea why anyone would wear them - but there's no reason not to eat chocolate with a half metal mouth. What's she worried about? There are no anti-aug protesters here? :P

The former. And she just got them last week and is having a very hard time eating anything but ice cream. She's wanted them for years and now all I hear is bitching about how bad they hurt. Women are never happy man!

You sure it isn't just an excuse to eat lots of icecream?

I didn't know they did braces for adults, thought only kids/teenagers had them.

Tell her it hurts more being punched in the mouth*, so stop moaning or you might prove it. (Or maybe don't, since she might demonstrate on you... at least wait until you've eaten the chocolate.) :P

* I don't know if it actually does, since I've never had either done to me. I'm just guessing.

They will give them to whoever is willing to pay for them I suppose. Both my kids have them and so does the wife. $9000 worth of metal in mouths around here!

And I think it would hurt me just as much as her, I can't imagine the pain of punching someone with braces!

Yikes, that's a lot. Pretty sure they're not even close over here. Hooray for NHS!

Yay! Yorkies are big, I think that's why they're not for girls.

 

The secret of the Ripple is there's lots of surface area so you get a more intense hit of chocolate. And definitely heard a "It's better then Hersheys"

 

So, 5-3 I believe. Good work. Your kid seems like a gent.

Apparently it can be free for kids on the NHS here but not for much longer (is the rumour) unless there are medical reasons for it. I suspect that adults would have to pay and based on the fact that my bridge cost over £500, I would say that a set of braces for an adult would probably run to well over a couple of thousand. Very hard for adults to get NHS dental treatment in a lot of places here now.

Add THE VETOES to your myspace friends!!! Pretty please :D

The Youtube tag currently doesn't work with the shortened youtu.be links. It has to be the full youtube.com.

I couldn't believe Tanner popped the whole thing in his mouth. No idea where that boy got his manners :)

I could eat a bunch of the Ripple's. Very smooth and yummy! The chocolate seems very much like Dove, but there is something about the way it's put together that makes it better. Wonder why we can't get that here? I must inquire!

Drew has yet to reveal his vote, and I'm confident we will get it back to 5-4!

I promise better camera work for the next one!

Don't you have a digital camera you could use for the video?

Sure, but in the hands of Tanner it doesn't matter what we use :-(

Galaxy chocolate is (at least from what I've heard) considered one of the best confectionery chocolates over here. It's smoother and creamier than Cadbury's or Nestle and melts in the mouth really nicely.

 

I look forward to seeing reactions to the Boost, Daim and Chocolate Orange bars. Those are some of my favourites so it will be interesting to see how they are to you. :D

Also, I can't think of a signature, any ideas?

Well it's more that it'd (probably) reduce the motion blur :D

I was driving through Taunton today* and I saw a dentist's place with a sign that said

 

"Don't belive all the nonsense you hear about not being able to find an NHS dentist - we'll sign you up TODAY!"

 

unfortunatly Taunton is 125ish miles and across the border too!

 

 

 

 

 

*I had to venture into England!

Cool vid. I assume that's Tangler?

You do have cool accents. It's got a bit of the south in it (I mean the old south, before the south went further south - Virginia kinda south) and a bit of new england in there too. And it's not horrible like that fucking dreary horrible midwestern accent.

Yeah that's the one and only T4nner.

That's funny you say that. We lived in VA for a few years and at the time I seemed to have caught that lazy way they speak down there. I don't notice it much anymore, but when I'm around people from the south it comes back a bit.

:-)

I love Southern accents (other than Texas, everything goes to shit in texas). And the Virginia accent is really nice because, unlike the further-south ones, it's quite clipped and despite that southern laziness the diction is still quite strong. Any reason for the new england sound to it? Or is that just cos of proximity? (Or am I imagining it?).

Probably the proximity, but in these parts (especially Pittsburgh) people talk in a very distinctive way. They say Yins and yous guys and shit like that. That's probably where I've gotten it because that's where I went to college and spend a bit of time down there when I can.
