Consider visiting an oral surgeon if this problem persists.

Very good.

My real question is whether people are so inherently dumb these days that they need a youtube video on how to brush their teeth? I mean, srsly. Can't wait for his follow-up videos: "Shitting in the toilet 101" "Walking: Putting One Foot in Front of the Other!" "Food: It goes in your MOUTH!" and "Socks: Where to put them (hint: On your FEET!)!"

So that's what I've been doing wrong. No wonder everyone gives me funny looks! Thanks, prof!

Like me, you probably grew up seeing that Red Hot Chili Peppers Album Cover and were forever unsure afterward where they went.

Was a little surprised to see him take things in a new direction with his latest video, "Rimjobs: Your Tongue + Wetnap= Holiday Fun!"

To be fair, about 4-5 years ago, I saw something on the shoelace site that completely changed my shoelace world.

Never would have thought that I was tieing my shoelaces wrong (and if someone came up to me in college and told me so, I would probably be like "piss off, I can tie my shoes just fine")...but by making one little change, I no longer have trouble with large round or rawhide laces.

How did you tie your shoes? How do you tie them now? I'm fond of the bunny ears method.

Basically I was tying them into a granny knot instead of a square knot but the bow and the fact that I don't use the bunny ears method obscured that fact (which was sad since I am pretty damn good with knots and would never knowingly use a granny knot). my laces looked like this when tied (notice that the bow is sort of vertical): They should look like this (horizontal): As for the actual tieing, I use what ian calls the "standard knot" (bunny ears is the "two loop knot") so the easiest fix was to do the bow part of the knot the same way but switch the direction in which I tied the starting half knot. Since I made the change, I have never had to double knot a lace again, even the thick round ones that never used to stay (the soft flat laces like in the picture stay no matter how you tie them...)

So what makes Colgate Total superior? I always suspected that toothpaste companies were like skincare companies, repackage the same old shit, add some buzzwords, and charge a fortune - all the money spent in marketing and none in real product-improving R&D.
