Millions of Americans do it daily, which was my point. Joel Send a noteboard - 10/09/2010 05:48:38 AM
don't bitch when you get bit in the ass for it.

They put their health second to clothing their spouse, feeding their children, housing their parents and a great many things they can only do because of jobs slowly (or not so slowly) destroying their bodies.

17 fillings? Do you ever go to the dentist? *NM* random thoughts - 09/09/2010 06:26:05 PM 391 Views
seriously. that's an insane number of fillings to have been putting off. LadyLorraine - 09/09/2010 06:28:09 PM 903 Views
Give me the time and money, and I'll be happy to do it. Joel - 09/09/2010 06:32:42 PM 886 Views
This is the first time in my life I've had dental insurance. Joel - 09/09/2010 06:29:44 PM 932 Views
So in other words it's your own damn fault. Tom - 09/09/2010 07:34:43 PM 861 Views
"Not that expensive" is a big phrase. Joel - 10/09/2010 05:42:55 AM 832 Views
I've actually been buying Boar's Head knockwurst for grilling. Tom - 10/09/2010 05:46:59 AM 732 Views

Congratulations: You made the first constructive suggestion in the thread. Joel - 10/09/2010 05:37:51 AM 812 Views
well, I bet it wouldn't have cost you near so much if you hadn't kept putting it off. LadyLorraine - 09/09/2010 06:29:50 PM 894 Views
Yes, I was able to figure that out on my own. Joel - 09/09/2010 06:34:58 PM 1012 Views
whatever. If you put your health second... LadyLorraine - 09/09/2010 07:40:20 PM 943 Views

Re: Dr. Pepper Isaac - 10/09/2010 07:05:06 PM 980 Views
A reasonable response; amazing how it doesn't make me foam at the mouth.... Joel - 11/09/2010 04:02:10 PM 951 Views
(shrugs) I don't mix personal and politics Isaac - 11/09/2010 07:21:36 PM 1185 Views
As it should be. Joel - 11/09/2010 09:17:56 PM 929 Views
By they way, some quick possibly useful advice Isaac - 11/09/2010 07:38:02 PM 927 Views
Yeah, those are the two things I'm thinking. Joel - 11/09/2010 08:47:54 PM 935 Views
no, that would be the dr. pepper again... moondog - 11/09/2010 07:52:44 PM 846 Views

This is (one of) the thing(s) I love about you: Joel - 10/09/2010 05:34:02 AM 901 Views
would it save you money if they just ripped them all out and put in dentures instead? *NM* moondog - 09/09/2010 09:32:41 PM 496 Views
Honestly not sure, but that may be what happens. Joel - 10/09/2010 05:36:15 AM 775 Views
One bit at a time.. Kel - 09/09/2010 10:11:00 PM 811 Views
Indeed. Joel - 10/09/2010 05:54:10 AM 966 Views
I feel so sorry for people who have to live in uncivilised countries. Tim - 10/09/2010 12:18:11 AM 872 Views
yes he will be moving to the land known for great dental care *NM* random thoughts - 10/09/2010 01:01:37 AM 453 Views
I think I must have been channeling a drunken poet when I wrote that insult ßelals Girl - 10/09/2010 01:23:45 AM 983 Views
LOL A British person lecturing us about anything involving dental care. LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 02:02:33 AM 956 Views
I love how I'm not the only one to remember very old Simpson episodes! Dark Knight - 10/09/2010 03:58:41 AM 878 Views
When I posted regularly and prolifically that was kinda my thing. Joel - 10/09/2010 06:17:03 AM 821 Views
Certainly not! *NM* ironclad - 10/09/2010 08:13:07 AM 387 Views
All hail the stereotype! Tim - 10/09/2010 10:12:30 AM 784 Views
Where does that stereotype come from? Camilla - 11/09/2010 04:52:41 PM 1141 Views
Also less of an obsession with artficially whitening teeth. *NM* Legolas - 11/09/2010 05:33:04 PM 435 Views
Combined with tea? *NM* Camilla - 11/09/2010 05:34:25 PM 392 Views
Yeah, about that... Joel - 11/09/2010 09:31:11 PM 1203 Views
Re: Yeah, about that... Camilla - 11/09/2010 09:35:15 PM 1199 Views
Still keeping my US citizenship though. Joel - 11/09/2010 09:53:05 PM 995 Views
It's painful to watch though. Joel - 10/09/2010 06:16:03 AM 842 Views
America is fine. You just suck at it. *NM* Dark Cannoli'gar - 10/09/2010 12:29:48 AM 514 Views
Sorry for the national debt nearly as large as our GDP, falling standard of living and Iraq War. Joel - 10/09/2010 05:57:34 AM 814 Views
Suck it up ßelals Girl - 10/09/2010 01:27:09 AM 833 Views
Norway doesn't provide dental coverage for anyone over 18. Joel - 10/09/2010 06:09:32 AM 903 Views
~shrugs~ damookster - 10/09/2010 01:48:24 AM 825 Views
In this case I did without so I could get to work every day, and put my arm back in its socket. Joel - 10/09/2010 06:19:11 AM 816 Views
Your travel money would certainly have paid for a lot of dentistry. *NM* LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 02:00:09 AM 466 Views
LITERATEDOG!! ßelals Girl - 10/09/2010 02:02:57 AM 926 Views
I was trying to go the Facebook route, but no one wants to debate anything there. *NM* LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 02:04:48 AM 480 Views
The only people that reply to you on Facebook are people who already like you and agree with you. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 10/09/2010 03:07:22 AM 462 Views
Xactly. Hide everyone else. *NM* nossy - 10/09/2010 03:22:36 AM 332 Views
Not really. Joel - 10/09/2010 06:21:55 AM 919 Views
Oh, honey, I don't blame you for the Norway travel. LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 06:35:10 AM 798 Views
Funny thing is I once would've agreed. Joel - 10/09/2010 08:47:34 AM 910 Views
Boohoo. You made your choices. You prioritized luxuries before dental care. Live with it. LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 04:40:05 PM 955 Views
Joel opened himself up to this nossy - 10/09/2010 05:22:45 PM 848 Views
But it's all about his personal choices. LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 05:33:42 PM 946 Views
A rather tangential point, but since you keep talking about what "you as a nation" pay for... Legolas - 10/09/2010 06:07:10 PM 824 Views
I couldn't care less what his actual income is. LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 06:16:41 PM 823 Views
IIRC, you think there's a huge pile of misspent money that should be returned to its owners. Joel - 11/09/2010 04:12:57 PM 904 Views
Yes. nossy - 10/09/2010 06:33:22 PM 955 Views
Much better put than in my post. What she said. *NM* Legolas - 10/09/2010 06:39:27 PM 390 Views
Whatever. Completely ignore my points because you want to hide behind the label "personal choice". LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 11:13:02 PM 778 Views
Ok. nossy - 11/09/2010 07:14:23 AM 802 Views
Actually, no. Not ok. nossy - 11/09/2010 08:23:02 AM 739 Views
But, you know, even then, put the political part of it aside. LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 11:29:36 PM 900 Views
Excoriate? nossy - 11/09/2010 07:21:03 AM 1222 Views
.sorry, darlin'... damookster - 11/09/2010 03:40:24 AM 1039 Views
and edit. nossy - 11/09/2010 07:23:41 AM 983 Views
In other words, you made sacrfices for those you love. Joel - 11/09/2010 04:25:08 PM 1090 Views
Actually, most of those choices weren't mine and I opposed them. Joel - 11/09/2010 04:09:43 PM 863 Views
"if you really work as much as you claim, then you must piss money away at an astounding rate" eh? Joel - 11/09/2010 03:49:58 PM 1036 Views
And your comparison of a celebratory party to the basic right to marry itself is ludicrous. LiterateDog - 10/09/2010 06:55:18 AM 1113 Views
That's an unfortunate situation... Vivien - 10/09/2010 05:10:01 PM 993 Views
*hugs* I'm glad you got it taken care of though, and glad to hear from you; been a little worried. Joel - 11/09/2010 04:34:31 PM 910 Views
