I feel attacked.

My girlfriend says she knows when I'm ready for bed or going to work based on if she can hear me trying not to throw up in the bathroom while brushing my teeth.

Why are you even getting close to throwing up while brushing your teeth?

[–] technologicalcaveman@kbin.social 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

My gag reflex starts at my teeth. To answer for real though, I can't brush my tongue. Things touching my tongue, aside from food, makes me gag very hard. I'd never make it in Miami.

I don’t have it this bad, but I despise having to go to the dentist. I must have gagged about a dozen times last time I went. Something about people shoving hands in my mouth… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hi me. Every time I brush my tongue it’s instant gag reflex. I hate it so much. Finally got some great toothpaste which helps with flavor sensory issues but nothing can help my tongue

[–] Kiosade@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

Gross bro, you don’t brush your tongue? Or do you not have a gag reflex? 😏

[–] nyoooom@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Open your eyes as wide as possible, it basically blocks the gag reflex

Oh really??

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

can confirm, stuck my fist down my throat and no gagging

[–] NAXLAB@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Sorry but do you actually have such little control over your mouth and face muscles that you can't avoid gagging on toothpaste?

[–] Faydaikin@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Same. Mint triggers my gag-reflex hard. It's uncomfortable, but such is life if you want to keep your own shinys.

It has made me throw up so many times. And then I have to start over. It's not a great way to start ones morning, I can say that.

[–] technologicalcaveman@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's not even the toothpaste, but the brush itself that bothers me. Same thing happens when I get throat swabs by the doctor, throw up a decent amount of the time from it. Pretty much anything touching my tongue or throat makes me puke.

[–] Faydaikin@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I'm sorry to hear it, mate. You have my condolences. Never stop brushing, though. The alternative is far worse.

Then spend the next 20 mins dropping an epic duce; or as I like to call it, "dropping my latest rap album"

"My shits fire!"

"We know, dad."

"No, I'm having a serious medical emergency!"

"That was the title of your last one, too!"

It's brown, it's down, and a helluva sound

Was this posted by my kid in another universe where I have kids?

[–] Lightsong@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Childfree here but I'll def get a dog when time is right.

[–] the_blast_of_us@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Then how about you don't wake me up at 5 a.m. you little shit!

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Could you be my long lost brother?
