Better a lame resolution than a sincere one. One engages in self-improvement or not regardless of some calendar-based formality. Shaming rituals are counter-productive.
I grew up being told to brush my teeth before bedtime. Brushing after meals was never mentioned. I was surprised when a dentist told me I needed to brush right after meals. That was a new idea.
Should be an easy one to keep. However, if you keep that up for the rest of your life, I doubt that you will have to brush your teeth even once a week in the not too distant future, as you won’t have any teeth…..
I never resisted brushing my teeth, if only because I liked the flavor of the toothpaste. But some grown-ups don’t brush often enough because they NEVER acquired the taste.

First set of teeth, maybe. Second set of teeth please take care of them. You are only healthy as your teeth.

He will soon earn the name “Red” when gingivitis causes his gums to bleed.

Anyone else noticed that the copyright date for yesterday’s and today’s comics is 2017? I hope we’re only getting reruns for a short while.
