I'm sorry nickel... :sad:

How long this time?

And did you not wear your retainer or something?

One year, Approx.

And I DID wear my retainers EVERY NIGHT for 8 years. over the course of 8 years, i missed the equivalent of probably a WEEK of retainer-nights.

That is why it makes me so mad. If i didn't wear my retainers it'd be my own stupid fault.

Anwyay, my wisdom teeth started pushing my lower teeth forward, so they dont meet correctly with the top ones anymore. If wisdom teth were so smart, they would stop coming in upside-down and all that, and they'd stop messing up everything they touch....

Yeah, I'll probably have to get braces again sometime too because I've lost my retainer and didn't wear it 95% of the time anyway, and I got the braces off like 6 years ago. But yeah, there's some crookedness, nothing too horrible so I guess nobody's saying "orthodonty 4 u, lol"

Sor ry about the braces though, don't think about 'em for a while and then it'll be like you don't have 'em until you try chewing something and it hurts.

Don't worry nickel, I'll still like you very, very much. :dodgy:

What the Snarkpitters listen to!

If life were like an episode of "The Wonder Years" you'd go talk to
that Russian girl you've been pining after, and you'll be all
embarrassed about your braces, and then she'll smile and have new braces
too!

But alas, you're not Fred Savage. :sad:

Ahahah, so true :biggrin:

Condolences about the braces Nickelbuddy, but given a week or two you'll have forgotten they are there again. Also, just remember that you are the only one who really gives a f**k about them, so nothing to be embarrassed about :smile:

Wisdom teeth suck ass - they are nothing but bloody trouble.

I'm also currently wearing braces but I should be able to get them off soon. I'll also have to get oral surgery done this summer. I've already had four teath pulled when I was younger to make more rooom. Now they want four more?! WTF, are they trying to milk me of everything my family has?

<span style="color: lightblue;">Oh, show us pictures, show us pictures, pleeeaseee, show us pictures.

Unless your braces require traintracks, I
doubt anyone will care. Make sure you remove them on dates though. You
don't want to get her tongue stuck in the metal now do you? :evilgrin:

/runs away really fast

Oh, and about the wisdom teeth. Everyone I know complains/complained about having
to go to the dentist because of their wisdom teeth, but mine grew
perfectly in an empty space at the end of the jaw, without any
pain or discomfort at all. Weird.

I'm english, i'm quite happy with NATURAL non-perfectly shaped teeth thank you very much :razz:

Well I seem to take from my dad, and therefore have rather crooked looking teeth so don't worry :razz: I'm quite sure your teeth are in better shape then mine are, Nickel.

LMAO!!!

I wouldnt worry too much about it.. being Korns brother ive dont
nothing with my teeth.. loads of people now days get braces, your
not the only one :biggrin:

---

Oh man I'm so kill yourself sorry.

i'm probably going to have to get braces again as well, seeing as i'm only going to get 3 wisdom teeth

Yeah, but you don't LOVE me anymore...

I'm not fred savage... I'm Savagely good-looking.

Vash, you are just like a photocopy of Maddox. Minus originality. Thanks for the comfort, though. :biggrin:

Yeah, spartan, when i was 9 they pulled all 4 of my Canines, then when i was about 17 they pulled all my wisom teeth, but not before they could screw up the other teeth with thier false wisdom. I feel for you, my friend.

I used to need braces, my bottom jaw closed in front of my top jaw, but
now, by sheer force of will, my teeth fit on top of each other.

I did get a tooth filled a few weeks ago, it took three shots of
novacaine to fully numb me for the whole operation, thus adding to my
belief that I am, in fact, invincible.

I love that video, entertained me all through Grade 7 :biggrin:

I am trying but I just can't. How can someone "look" more gay with metal in their mouths?

For that matter, how does "Gay" look?

I have Gay acquaintances, and their looks aren't anything common at all. They act differently than normal folk, but if you lined up an entire row of men, and placed a few Gays in there, no one could single them out by just looking. Now if the dumb s**ts opened their mouth and said something, you might catch on, but even there, some gay people talk normal too.

So, care to explain how you can look "More" gay? I imagine you looked pretty freaky/gay, before the metal Nickel only, you were afraid to admit it till now.

3 cheers for homophobia...

The older generation of gays aren't quite as flamboyant as the younger
ones. It may be different since I'm in Canada and we seem to
accept them much more, but if you came up to where I live you'ld
definitely be able to point them out.

I can usually point 'em out around here, they're the ones who come up to me at parties and tell me to drink more...

I hate, homophobe-phobes Frenchy. Keep that in mind.

And, there is no such thing as accepting homosexuality. There are many levels of tolerance toward them, but no straight person ever truly accepts.

Acceptance is a powerful decision making process and very few have it within themselves to completely accept anything. Tolerance on the other hand can be granted in stages. From mildly tolerable to mostly tolerable. Acceptance has no such compulsions. One cannot be mildly acceptance. You either are, or are not. There is no middle ground.

Next time you "think you accept" a homo viewpoint, try imagining yourself having sex with your own gender. If you can envision it, then you may want to examine your own sexuality. Now if you can tolerate it when another person has sex with their own gender then, you are tolerant.

There is a major difference between accepting and tolerating.

i had braces for two years about two years ago. never needed a retainer though. i looked like a real dick :biggrin: .
ive also had two teeth pulled from the top, ironically Im also missing the two teeth between the upper canines and the upper insisors.

Next time you "think you accept" a homo viewpoint, try imagining yourself having sex with your own gender. If you can envision it, then you may want to examine your own sexuality.

That is a great quote orph, I love it.

About spotting them, sometimes you can tell 100%, other times you can't it more of a person to person basis.

Now back on track:

I have braces too nickleplate, we can get through it together.

I've never tried to imagine myself having sex with one of my gay
friends, but it doesn't mean that I don't accept them. It's not
like it even mildly bothers me that they're gay. So to appease
you, I'll say that I'm extremely super 100% "tolerant".

Dude, you don't have to do a damned thing for me. What do you think this is a popularity contest? If so, I'd lose daily.

If you want to think you are accepting, go for it Bucko.

Let's stop trying to work our views on homosexuals into everything, shall we?

I'm still interested in having my question answered. It can be via PM if Gwil so deems it but I wanna know how someone can look more ***?

Either you are, or you are not ***, but I fail to see how one can look more so.

and...

I didn't bring up the topic, I just expanded on a portion of it.

and...

looks at floor

I don't think its a topic that should be avoided, unless... It turns hateful. Even I draw the line at bashers.

Only in the first post. :rolleyes:

Its but a single paragraph bud, try not to hurt yourself locating it.

You kids. Sometimes you make me laugh so hard I can't breathe.

The best things in life, aren't things.

no charge, but orph please don't take things so literal, i mean seriously

you old people and your literalness sometimes you make me sigh*rolls eyes*

Are you attempting to tell me in some nice way that there is more than one "Gay?"

Now, don't go into that "Old People" stuff, because quite literally, "Gay" used to mean happy, not... pseudo-normal. I remember those days and I am sure you were not born then. And... I am not considered "Old" outside these forums.

If I had a choice, I'd pick happy any day.

So now we are left with this.. Did Nickel use some sort of code language that doesn't pertain to anything homosexual?

---

The best things in life, aren't things.

orph i'm sorry i just didn't feel that i needed to use the sarcasm color with you man

gay has been transformed to mean like stupid or s**tty in recent years

OK, forget my original post then as Nickel looks "Stupid" even without metal on his teeth.
