A Discussion of Choppers


Teeth - how do you feel about them? Is it important to have mostly uniform, straight teeth? Or is it endearing to have somewhat crooked ones? I think my views on teeth are slowly changing. I used to think nice, straight teeth that are in the sockets they are supposed to be in were the bomb. Now, I'm kinda tired of the same old, same old. I like to mix it up a little. Throw in a few crooked lower teeth and I sort of dig it. Maybe it gives you character. So, if you have skewed teeth, should you fix them? Or leave them? I'm leaning toward leaving them. Hmmm, but I'm not sure. Maybe, maybe the thing to look at is whose mouth the teeth are in. For instance, crooked & slightly jumbled lower teeth would look silly on, say, me but look beautiful on Ed Robertson. 10 years ago, I'd have begged Ed to get them straightened. But now, hmmm, I think they're ok. See, I think Jewel's teeth look goofy. But Ed's - they look alright. I think. I wonder if I'd feel the same way if I saw them in person. Or had to look at them every day. I'd think, though, with a mouth that perfect, the teeth would only be secondary. (I wonder if Tony reads my blog anymore? If so, he will certainly be troubled by this post. Not that he has anything to worry about...his teeth are the best! I love them. They are so white and straight, but not too perfect. Unlike mine, which are disgustingly uniform. No character at all. And I didn't even have braces.)
