I managed to
Lose my front (no.1 in dentistspeak maybe?) right upper tooth, The reason for this was while absolutely trashed and drinking a friend's rum, I decided that a good idea would be to pick up his wakasashi, hand him his daikatana and take him out into the street for a spot of fencing. First person to draw blood three times would be declaired the winner. It got to 2-2, due to two cuts to my hand, one to his arm and one to his chest, when I parried awkwardly, and he saw the opening and um, smashed me in the face. With much more force than was appropriate. Therefore, I have a facial scar that was the result of a duel. How cool am I? (I neglect to tell the girls that I also have wobbly bridgework)

Incidentally, the tooth actually snapped at the root, and the top remained in my gum, impacted a good centimeter back and left from where it should have been, cue central eating gags.

Then to top it all off, as a goth type, I smoke a lot of djarums, after having my root pulled the fuck out with a Lot of coaxing by a rather pretty dentist, who actually had to wrench the damn thing out with her knee on the chair during what looked like some sort of bizarre s&m scene, she sparked up a Bic bloody Lighter to melt something or other that absolutely reeked of clove. So after going through some pret-ty nasty dentalwork, I was treated to the noise of a lighter sparking up, a smell identical to that of my favourate gaspers, and wobbling out of the chair shellshocked i'm told not to smoke for about half the bloody afternoon *grumble*


His was longer, but mine tapers ergonomically and grips better ;)
