and 4 out of 5 dentists recommend lots of sugary gum so they can buy more boats.

[-]

You're closer to the truth than you realize. My wife's dentist recommended that my wife should have major dental work every time the dentist was doing renovations to her home. Her dentist lived only 2 houses away from us so we could make the connection by watching the work crews around her house.

This happened four different times so it wasn't just a coincidence. A few friends also went to the same dentist. They had the same thing happen to them. The dentist was a good neighbor but you could read her like a book.

[-]

Relative_Emu4011@reddit

Yep, and Invisalign will ultimately cost you at least twice what they quote upfront

[-]

LW-M@reddit

You speak the truth. My wife had a root canal done. She was referred to a Dental Surgeon when her regular dentist broke off a tooth root. He quoted $1300 to remove the 1 broken tooth root

When we paid the Dental Surgeon's bill, it started at $1970 plus other charges. His all-in total was just under $2500, almost twice his estimate. Insurance did pick up some of the cost but the reimbursement was based on the original estimate.

Invisalign wasn't mentioned and we didn't ask. By the way, my wife's dentist's renovations looked good!

[-]

Gummbee2@reddit

Glad you spotted that. I made that comment because my former dentist was the same way. "See that grey spot on the x-ray? That's a cavity and we need to fill it. On an unrelated note, wanna see pictures of my new boat?"

cigarettes were healthy and soothed nerves

i mean they were a stimulant, and do what stimulants do. i am wondering how many people have had undiagnosed ADHD that self-medicated with a stimulant of choice (coffee, nicotine, etc), and just never really knew, just that they needed the fix to feel "normal".

[-]

AutoModerator@reddit

/u/Shedding has unlocked an opportunity for education!

Abbreviated date-ranges like "’90s" are contractions, so the apostrophe goes before the numbers.

You can also completely omit the apostrophe if you want: "The 90s were a bit weird."

Numeric date-ranges like 1890s are treated like standard nouns, so they shouldn't include apostrophes.

To show possession, the apostrophe should go after the S: "That was the ’90s’ best invention."

The apostrophe should only precede the S if a specific year is being discussed: "It was 1990's hottest month."

TL;DR: When writing dates, apostrophes do not pluralize!

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Good thing I didn't use the apostrophe for the second date range.

Normalise calling fattys fat. It's the only way we can stop the fatdemic that costs society millions in healthcare and lost work hours.

[-]

RivetHammerlock@reddit

Normalize walkable cities. Normalize bland, healthy food being ok to serve at gatherings. Make neighborhoods safe to walk without fear of being hit by or dragged into a car. Allow small businesses to be built within walking distance of homes. Build multilevel homes that allow more people to live close enough to walk and bike to work. Plenty of ways to make people's lives healthier, but we've been doing the opposite for decades.
