Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for May 11, 2021

I never want to get my wisdom teeth removed again!

If only it was implantable.

you would be smart to stay away from steroids Horace….!

It smarts, doesn’t it?

It’s awful!

Getting a little long in the tooth there Horace?

I never had mine removed, now I know how wise I was.

That’s really funny. Many years ago I made up an “old axiom”: it’s not like pulling teeth, it’s like putting them back in.

I had 3 out of 4 of my wisdom teeth removed by the time I was 40, then had the last one done when I was in my 60s. The degree of discomfort was a lot more serious in my 60s. I wonder if dentists are starting to remove more wisdom teeth while people are younger rather than trying to preserve them (there was even a filling in my last wisdom tooth).

Now is the time to chomp at the Bit-O-Honey wrappers!

By the way, @17 which is a lower left jaw hole, you should also want 1, 16 and 32 if you really want to keep all of your wisdom teeth as a numerical legend.

Ive had dentures for over 20 years, too late now

i’m 71 and still have mine…i am older and wiser!

Too soon we get old, too late we get smart.
