Yes, I do. It’s as hard as it is to start flossing." - Mitch Hedberg

I don’t get how is it that brushing is normal for everyone but somehow flossing seems to be an impossible task. It literally takes even less time. It’s so quick and simple that it just seems dumb not do it. Well, to me at least. Clearly that’s not a very popular opinion.
Requires actual effort to floss right. Requires 0.1 effort to hold the vibratey brush to my teeth for two minutes
Invention question: would anyone here be willing to wear a ~perhaps frightening~ helmet that just does all the head hygiene stuff automatically?
I speed up shaving by covering the inside of a hockey mask with razor blades and then nod
At that point just get your teeth removed and buy dentures.
Dentures take more upkeep than real teeth, shit’s fucked
Let me introduce you to my friend depression. It makes self care way more difficult :)
Unfortunately neglecting self care makes the depression worse, which makes it harder to do self care.
I can’t fit one of my giant mitts in my tiny mouth let alone the two required to properly hold floss. I hate using the disposable floss picks because of the plastic waste. So for a long time I could just never floss properly unless I wanted to make a pile of plastic waste.
I did get a water pick now though and that works nice. Also to all the people who say water picks don’t clean as well as floss I say, you may be right but also that thing can blast limescale off of my sink so I’m pretty sure it does a good enough job on my teeth.
Look, i always need about 1m floss choking the bloodflow in my fingers, else it slips.
