'inherent value'?

Don't be gross

I'm assuming the magnets you use are quite powerful. And heavy? How do you go about transporting them to where you use them? Any dangers in having them in cars/near your electronics? Or have I watched Breaking Bad too many times...

Another vote for StoryGraph. Goodreads is Amazon owned so fuck them. If you have a Goodreads account you can export it to SG.

Haha don't have FOMO for surgery, mate. A life lived without it is a good one.

They can still wreak havoc on your teeth even if they don't come down. They tend to migrate and move and that can mess up your bite. So not likely now presuming you're older but it's a chance when you're younger and still growing etc.

Was a dental nurse once upon a time. Assisted with many an extraction. Yes if conditions are good (the jaw is large, the tooth is straight, there's no tangling or bone issues) then not a problem. But I did not enjoy putting some people with poor neck strength in headlocks. Or the post extraction vomiting. Or the way the patient cringed as they heard the tooth snap in their skull. Or the complete look of trauma on their face after.

Just because they couldn't feel pain didn't mean the experience wasn't harrowing. I needed to go under because all 4 were badly impacted. But having insider knowledge on the process, I would've chosen to be knocked out regardless.

Wisdoms? Same experience for me. My partner was in the room with a nurse asking me about my pain level. At first I was confused, what pain? Then as consciousness properly barrelled in I managed to sob an '8' through the gauze. I preferred oblivion at that point - they had to take a big chunk of bone and boy did I know it at that moment

Half the emails in my junk inbox are 'class action settlement' emails, so it's definitely an angle they're trying (presumably with some success)

Ergh this is indulgent nonsense from the seller trying to sell their paintings for free via their house listing

Totally agree with your point, but while I'm here, here's a good mnemonic device to help you use the right words with more impact:

Is your noose loose? Maybe you should lose the extra 'o'.

I'm not saying we don't, just that we don't typically have those particular spaces (or used for that purpose) in most of our homes.
