    Very rude of that community to not conform to what you wanted them to do instead of just experiencing the effects of unfluoridated tap water, smh.

    If you’re going to nitpick their methodology I’m sure you won’t mind sharing your own published studies on the matter, right? TIA.

      Eh, this was fun, but I’m getting bored. 😉 I’m kidding. However, that’s less a study and more a statistical analysis. One that failed to correct for any known issues that might cause unexpected results. I did find an interesting link earlier, I might try checking some of their sources. If I find anything interesting, well… I’ll have forgotten about this, so maybe I’ll update, maybe not! 😝

        You’re not bored, you’re just making your obligatory-brave-exit-speech for having lost both arguments. Your research skills are terrible.

              Stupid is as stupid does.

              And, seriously, you actually care if there fluoride in your drinking water? How fucking miserable is it to live like that?

              Goodnight, my friend. You could benefit from time in the real world, so I’m blocking you. Which of course means you win, now shut the fuck up and stop worrying about me, a complete stranger, and my opinions on anything.

              In other words, get a life.
