Speaker 1 (00:00):
So sometimes you know, you're having a conversation with somebody
and they'll say something that may hit you weird. It
may catch you off guard and you go, oh, I'm
not really sure what they meant by that comment, or
maybe it's something that you've thought about before. You go, oh, man,
maybe that is true. I don't know. Apparently Emily was
(00:21):
having a conversation with a coworker and there was a
comment made that now has made Emily completely spin out
and she's so self conscious about it now. And it
was something that was just said in a normal conversation, right, Yes,
what the hell happens?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
So this is a coworker that this person's cool, but
we're not like friends. It was not like one of
my tighter connections in the building. So we're not like
that that close by any means. But we're just talking
casually about all kinds of random things. It was kind
of in between meetings one day, and so we're just
chit chatting, and that's when it came up about dentist
(01:01):
and getting your teeth cleaned. And I have no clue neither.
That's not important anyway, sliced of how this got brought up.
But we're talking about going to the dentist. And that's
when I let her know that I am scared of
the dentist. I hate the dentist. And I have been
to the dentist and probably eleven or twelve years.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
Oh yuck, Oh that might be the yuck. I'm longer.
Speaker 4 (01:30):
So Emma and I have honestly knowing Eddie, that's shocking,
well because he's very by the book.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Again, Emily and I have a same kind of deal there,
this like really crazy shock. So mine goes back to
my childhood. So when I was a kid, you know,
I had braces, I had a retainer, had a little
while you learn a lot right now, I don't know.
And so I had an orthodonist, not like was I
(01:57):
was not really afraid of the dentist. Obviously, nobody wants
to go to dentist. But I would go to dentist
all the time. And then I got a new dentist.
And this dentist was like a freaking evil dentist that
you hear about and I'm not even joking to the
point of where he would do like hurt kids, Oh
my god, horse kind of wow, and I would find
(02:21):
I finally said something to my mom, and my mom
obviously freaked out about it, and to the point of
where this guy lost his license over it, and so
it really jacked me up. And so I would still
go to the dentist, you know, every once in a while.
But then it got to the point of where I
it's it's a massive thing for me that I'm like
freaked out.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
That makes sense, Emily's being a baby. That's not true.
I did have I did have one.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
I grew up, I had braces, and I actually was
never scared to go to the dentist as a kid
ever at all. And then the last time I went
to the dentist, like eleven or twelve years ago, I
was getting one cavity filled, and like the guy like,
I don't think he numbed me enough, and he was
hitting all kinds of nerves. He didn't seem to care
that I was in pain. And then also he like,
let me sit there when they you know, they scoop
(03:05):
out the cavity and then there's like a hole in
your tooth while they're getting ready to fill it, and
like he likes let me sit there for what felt
like an hour was probably like fifteen minutes while he
did something and I'm sitting there feeling this hole. Now
I know I can't get up, and then there goes
my anxiety.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
So I was like, not ever again.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
I'm done. I'm good on it. So anyway, I haven't
been a long time. So that's what I'm telling this
girl that. And that's when her reaction knee jerk right
away was exactly what Thors was was ew gross gross,
and that kind of shocked me because like, we're not
that tight, we don't like joke around that much together.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
And then that's when she goes, I bet your breath breaks.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Yeah, oh my, and I go huh, and I kind
of laughed joking.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
She did her emily emily.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Like a fake laugh because I don't know her well
enough to be like, why did you say that? Like
there's some people that.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Girl say that. I hope you didn't say.
Speaker 5 (04:21):
That, because you don't talk like that say that.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
I don't know. She's out of it right now, she's laughing.
Probably that would be well, but.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
I just kind of laughed it off, right or whatever,
and then we kind of both went our separate ways.
Speaker 3 (04:44):
But then now.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I've always sort of wondered if I had bad breath
or not. But now, like, I don't know why I've
wondered that, but like I just I've smelled other people's
horrible breath, and it's like, one of my biggest fears
is to be talking to somebody and have rank.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Bath, one of your biggest Like just how awful would
that be? A bad breath person? It sucks.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I always wondered that, But now after this person said that,
I'm like, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Do I have bad breath? Is that what's happening? Okay?
And so now I don't know what to do.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
So since then, I've been like on the mint kick
a little bit more. I've been I've been like when
I talked to somebody, I kind of put my hand
in front of my mouth like breathing. So now I
have you guys, I need to ask weird, have you
ever noticed bad breath on me?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
So as we're talking here, I'm staring at your teeth
because I was like, what's going on? Do we got
good teeth? You actually have perfect teeth, So that's one
good thing. Your teeth look in great shape. Again, I'm
not a dentist, emily, so I don't know exactly what's
going on.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
I'm actually gonna say that I went to the dentist
with you.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
Ready, but your breath, as far as smell goes, I've
never once smelled your breath and went oh, Emily, not once?
Different story. Okay, is it not true?
Speaker 3 (06:15):
So for me? Okay, yeah, anybody else? Uh No, I
mean one one you sit the closest to her.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
Yeah, one is not going to claim that maybe Monday
mornings there isn't a bit of a winery smell the sky,
or or occasionally there could be a garlic trisc it
smell that laughs into the because you know you've just
(06:42):
eaten said garlic or onion trisk it.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Which is that I've smelled this guy over here?
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Yeah, yeah, one bite.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Of something, I can smell it. But as far as
bad breath, no, Emily will have soup breath from time
to time. Jewish man, Well, now I have I have
a question for you too.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Would you guys be open to sleep dentist set.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
You knocked me out, I'd do it. That's very rare
though they have sedation and it's also expensive. Yeah, sedation dentistry.
I would probably do It's it's gonna take some some
courage on my part. To do it because I'm that freshing.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Somebody to hold your hand.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
No opposite, I'd be real weird about it, like they
wouldn't talk to anybody, go to a weird place. But
I would probably do sedation. But again, I mean it's
obviously available, and I haven't done it yet. Yeah, but
i'd have to really pull the trigger.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
Do you guys have any pains in your mouth that
you're ignoring?
Speaker 3 (07:46):
Obviously not. I do a little bit, you do.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yeah, I have a couple of teeth that are nervous grow.
I did let my mom know this recently?
Speaker 3 (07:56):
You haven't been to.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
Angel?
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Does she have a dentist at her house? She was
not happy.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
I got a young lady scolding I raised you.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Better than doing raised you better.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
That's been bugging me like every other day. So did
you call dentis yet? Did you call dentist yet? Did
you call dentist yet?
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Wait? She's mad at her parenting skills because you to
you're not a racist. You didn't go to the dentist.
It's almost the same level. Wait, I don't know about.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
Them all right, Well, I feel better that you guys
didn't just say that you've noticed.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
I don't know blowing Sky's face.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
Wait, I don't know why you're so gross.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
Soup breath. It might be coffee. I mean it's Monday. No,
I feel that it's Monday.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
There's a vibe breath, No, SURPRISINGLY know something on ball breath.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
I got a vibe of toothpaste. I got toothpaste.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Drink your coffee this morning, drink coffee and had a
protein chalk, a protein bar, cheese.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
A protein bar.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Get all right, Well, I feel better, But I am
looking at this person that said this to me in
a different way, like I'm kind of over this person.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
I mean that was rude. Wait, we're not that close.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
You don't even say that to me, you know.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
So again, like Thor's reaction, you're not mad at him
for having the exact same reaction.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
The e gross him and I that's how you can
do that. You can do that. He's got so much gunk,
probably on your teeth. But it doesn't get like this.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
You gotta get the dentist to get in there and
scrape it like you stuff you can't get with the toothbrush.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
It's just freaking me out.
Speaker 4 (09:40):
Scrape lock the lock you down, Lock you down.
