What's Normal? (1 Viewer)

I ruptured the plantar facia in my right foot 15 years ago playing tennis.  Had to drive home using my left foot and it was a little harder than I expected.  I could see how it's dangerous for someone who has never done it to just start using both feet but if you've always done it then it's probably not nearly as bad.
I messed up my right ankle pretty bad many moons ago (early 90s). I had a 68 mustang at the time that was an automatic. I spent about 6 weeks driving around using just my left foot. It's hard to picture exactly how I did it other than the front was a lot roomier than today's cars but I basically put my right foot off to the side and drove left footed. I recall it being a little tricky at first but didn't take long to adjust.

This would make for a good movie script.  You could call it My Left Foot.

 
on the last two questions, isn't wearing a seatbelt a law in your states? California it's been a big deal so the seatbelt goes on as a habit now, don't even think twice about it. heck if i'm getting a ticket for something so trivial.

(pleasantly) surprised to see the answers on the shopping cart one, i'm sure i'll be thinking about this one next time i go to the market. i mean, i don't leave it in the parking space, but if the cart return area isn't in the general vicinity, then i'll just push it aside onto the planter or between spaces where it hopefully wouldn't get in someone else's way. 50-50 whether it goes there or the return area. y'all very considerate peoples. well, 26 of you are anyway.

Yes, but so is driving the speed limit, making a full stop at a stop sign and using your turn signal.  Doesn't mean people always do it.

It was a fluke that I even discovered this, so no big deal to me. Just interesting.

Interesting.  This is just using vanilla WordPress.  Not sure why it wouldn’t work with edge.

 
not sure how to word this one but something along the lines of 

"do you tell people what a great deal you got on (insert product and/or service) when someone remarks on it?"

for example, my BIL has two roombas.  i asked what he thought of them and if they worked like he hoped, to which he replied "they're great! Home Depot had a sale on them, plus i had a gift card and i returned unused building materials to get the price way down...."

 
On the toothbrush thing, I've always wondered if more people wet their toothbrush before or after putting the toothpaste on it. 


I put the toothpaste directly on my tongue and then wet the toothbrush.  I have no problem with it since I’m the only one that uses my brand of toothpaste.


What is the value of the second wetting?
My dentist/hygienist said don't wet the toothbrush at all as it softens the bristles and that means your brushing isn't as beneficial.

Never had a cavity in my life.  :comeatmebro:
How old are you?

I ask because stuff starts changing around 50 +/- in regards to plaque/tartar buildup. Dad was a dentist, and I just saw mine who commented on the same thing as they scraped a ton of crap from between my well-brushed teeth.

Your father was a dentist and you haven't been flossing?

I figure flossing is more useful than brushing.  There are always particles present if I floss after brushing, not so much when brushing after flossing.  Everyone's mouth structure varies, but a dentist's son not flossing? For shame.

Not 50 yet, but closer to 50 than 40.  

I brush twice a day (with a Sonicaire), drink lots of water, and have a toothpick with me almost constantly.  I'll add flossing it ever becomes necessary.

Why you so mean. :(

definitely bad. I floss, but not daily and sometimes not even weekly. Since this last visit its been daily.

my dad's hygienist had a sign on the wall- you dont have to floss all your teeth, just the ones you want to keep.

I use Sonicaire too (another thing my dad advocated)... And the toothpick is great relative to nothing (i had uncle with the amnoying habit of suckimg his teeth after meals...mentioned it to my dad who said it worked better than nothing). Re flossing when necessary... Is that to say only once you get cavities and other issues, not proactively?

Meaning I just have no desire at this point.  But if the dentist wants me to start then I will.  For now she says I'm fine.  (She's actually the one that is fine, but I digress...)

When using a public bathroom, do you usually use the larger, handicapped stall if it is available?

No option for "only on business trips to get changed before leaving the conference venue for the airport" ? 

 
When you see an ugly/normal dude with a hot chick, is your first thought, "how the hell did he land her?"

There are usually two or three reasons: humor, money, and sometimes just personal tastes. I know I outkicked my coverage when I landed my wife, but we have fun together.
