I just got my wisdom teeth taken out.

Good stuff
-it was quick
-not much pain
-being numbed feels kind of cool at first

Bad stuff
-the sound of my teeth cracking in half
-spitting out jawbreaker-sized mouthfulls of congealed blood
-being numbed gets really annoying after an hour or so

Random factoids
-For the Romans, a dentist was basically a strong guy with a pair of pliers. Sometimes they would pull the completely wrong tooth, rip out a few healthy ones along with the bad one, or even remove a section of the person's jaw by accident. eeek
-There's no medical proof that the preemptive removal of non-impacted wisdom teeth is beneficial or even recommended. That doesn't stop dentists from recommending it though.

the end is especially frustrating in baldur's gate, because all your friends and your romance spend the last chapters talking about all the things you're going to do when you're done saving the world, and then you don't get to DO any of them. They even talk about things that could have become quests in the little wrap ups, like saying later on you saved ___ and ____ blank from some vampires.

Damn it, I wanna see that house in the country my party supposedly bought!
