Yeah, this is my experience too. I also have a chipped front tooth from when the fucker hammered the band in place. Didn't know it happened until the fucker removed them many years later and then blamed it on me saying it was from me not taking care of my teeth.

One of the best days of my life was when I got those braces off.

I also had little stains on my teeth where the pieces were glued. They're mostly gone, but I can still see the outline of one on one of my front teeth.revbob wrote: ↑05 Jun 2023, 12:31pmYeah, this is my experience too.

Even tho I have a good relationship with my dentist here, there's always some apprehension because of the monsters I dealt with as a kid (my family dentist literally yelled at kids).

Re: The grocery store (and gas station) music thread
my teeth situation and mouth's smile appearance is so brutal, my chiropractor/lifelong friend calls me "Magnuson", from Keith Magnuson, hockey player. I have dental coverage but until this damn virus is gone there's no way i'm opening myself up to the year's worth of dental surgery etc. that will be required to fix my mouth up. So I just wear a mask, which not only helps me try and avoid the virus but also protects others from having to see "Magnuson" up close.
From what I see there's still a little hope

I heard the Twin Peaks theme in Loblaws yesterday, which someone could probably write a paper about, given how terrible that company/family is.

"Heat of the Moment"? Thankfully, that's the only one I know by them.

Yeah, after that gig i did go and play one of her albums and found it pretty anodyne in comparison. Live she was a bit rockier than i anticipated, even did the Suzi Quatro drum thing if i remember correctly.revbob wrote: ↑11 Nov 2023, 12:12pmLow Down Low wrote: ↑11 Nov 2023, 12:01pmOnce got dragged against my will (honest) to a Melissa Etheridge concert and well....it did not stink at least.

Just back from my local grocery store (Tops Friendly Markets). In the 5 minutes I was there, they played Peter Schilling - Major Tom.

Re: The grocery store (and gas station) music thread
Funny, this wasn't ringing any bells for me until it reached the chorus and i realised I'd heard it before. Barely dented the limey charts, though, which i find rather surprising. That kind of stuff usually went down pretty well.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑14 Nov 2023, 7:51pmA rare 80s one-hit wonder that I kinda like.Kimmelweck wrote: ↑14 Nov 2023, 6:06pmJust back from my local grocery store (Tops Friendly Markets).

Re: The grocery store (and gas station) music thread
There's only one version of the song that matters:
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

Don't think I'd heard the English version before. Probably never will again.
