Braces

ME: So, the dentist has this computer program where they show you your teeth from every angle – side, below, top, bottom, etc. It’s really cool.

DREW: Wow.

ME: Then he told me they’re going to have to file between a few of my teeth, which is going to be awful.

DREW: Okay.

ME: Then they put these little holder things on certain teeth, white blobs that the braces clip onto. They’re not that cute but whatever.

DREW: Okay.

ME: Then he showed me with the program what my teeth should look like in 7 months. It was so great! It’s still my teeth with chips and imperfections, but the program went click, click, click and they all straightened out, like time lapse. He said that it wasn’t a guarantee and there might be tweaking, but they definitely looked better.

DREW: That’s awesome.

ME: Yes, the only bad thing is the charge that I saw on my card. It’s terrifying, I’m going to be paying it off for years. It’s unbelievable.

DREW: Wow. I just have one question.

ME: What?

DREW: So, is this going to clean your mouth up any? Like is it going to straighten up the mean things that you say as well? Because maybe that’s the problem with your teeth, all the crap going past them on a daily basis.

(Silence)

ME: Your hair looks stupid.

DREW: Aaaand there’s my answer.
