Ooo, I remember having the wisdom teeth pulled out. Yeah, not too much fun, though you get to eat a lot of jello and soup. Honestly, I felt more drugged and groggy than in pain. They had me sitting in a chair one minute with the gas pumping in, and the next thing I know, I'm in another room with cotton in my mouth and I couldn't feel my cheeks.
The thing that bugged me the most was how they got me into the other room. I'm a pretty big guy (6'5" and 200 lbs.), so all I could guess was they got a bunch of people to carry me away. So when I went back to get the stitches cut out, I asked 'em how they did it. Turns out the gas really just gives you amnesia so that you don't remember a thing. I was awake the whole time they were cutting my mouth up and yanking my teeth out!
They gassed you? I had an injection, knocked me right out. I think I have the teeth they took out somewhere in a small paper bag they gave me. It's probably in a memento drawer or something.

I think I need to get mine removed because they make me bite the inside of my mouth every time!
I got mine all out at the same time. I don't remember how I got home, but i do remember feeling pulling and hearing sawing even though I was heavily drugged. But I remember thinking, "I want to hear this particular song," so I changed the tracks on my diskman, so it was a strange, semi-conscious experience. I fell up the stairs at home later than night.

At the time, I weighed 287 lbs. They got me home somehow.

Next time we'll go to a system like dictatorship or something where people have no say because elistest assholes think that Bush is a bad man! WHAT WERE WE THINKING CHRIST
I definitely agree on the first part. You don't have to be much insightfull to see how one Serb would not accept the concept of national guilt. I know I never did feel guilty for something some members of my nation did, hell, I don't even know nor like them. And there's no point in apologuising if those who did it don't feel the guilt in the first place. So chill out, citizens of USA.
Other thing is, this was all about revoting Bush, right? Well, after all, he still didn't do anything in new mandate. Apologuising would have meaning if it was for voting him first time. But seeing how you probably didn't even vote him the first time, that goes down too.
Third thing, bad president is always the worst for his own country.

Sounds like they did the same thing to you. I forgot to mention that because I was still conscious even though I was gassed, all they had to do when they were done was have me stand up and walk over to the other room. I was a PAWN in their twisted, sadistic "profession." Who knows what they could have done?!?
I do remember going home. My dad actually stopped at a Jewel and left me in the car slowly slipping back into unconsciousness. Man, that whole day was a trip.
once again, not to piss anyone off, but the banner they had on their site really made me angry
*sighs* I know, I know, I'm preaching to the chior, no one here has a problem with gays... but it upset me nonetheless.

I was really pissed off that this election only a little over half of the eligible voters under 30 voted.
When I got my teeth out, I remember looking at the I.V. and asking "so, how long does this take to -" and then sitting in the waiting room, and then spitting blood up all over my front lawn and popping the stitches.
Also, today, I had zero hot dogs, although I am currently watching Big Fish, which relates in no concievable way to anything said thusfar.
And Zhan_Dvega, I think your micro print is VERY important.
I had oral surgery once because I had a couple of teeth growing in the wrong way. They had to take the teeth below them out. The worst bit was when they took the wadding out of the spaces a week later.
For Chrissakes, Chris! We were talking about oral surgery several posts ago! Thanks for making me relive the painful experience of reading all those oral surgery posts! Get with the times, man!
Of course, I'm the one that isn't JP Sloan or Jim North.
In this case, it has to do with some x-rays my dad took (and yes, he's a dentist; he's licensed to take x-rays of people's mouths). Seems my wisdom teeth are growing in straight forward.
I am a Shmoe.
We're still your allies!
