    They’re not eyebrows if they’re painted on. They’re paint.

    And why do Europeans have such janky teeth?

        I usually just make fun of their horrible cuisine. Who in their right mind would eat bland mashed peas?

      Because putting bits of plastic over them and pretending they’re good never took off here

      Because over the last 14 years, the Tories have annihilated NHS dentistry.

      Growing up, I’d see a dentist every 6 months or so for a checkup. About ten years ago they swapped most people to appointments every year. Then about 3 years ago they sent me a text telling me that my dentist had left, and they’d tell me when they had another. Given they haven’t contacted me since, I’m assuming that was a typo, and what they actually meant to type was “fuck you”.

      They probably have a shit dental system.

      Kinda like how places with poor social safety nets have a bunch of homeless people, or places with bad sex ed have a bunch of pregnant teenagers.

        Can confirm the UK is in the middle of a dental crisis.

        My own experience was waiting on a list at the practice the rest of my family goes to for 5 yrs before they admitted they are short on dentists and haven’t been able to fill spots.

        I then had to spend an afternoon phoning around 40 of the local dentists looking for someone that could put me on there books.

        On the up side I am getting the tidy up work I have needed since just before lockdown on the teeth I smashed as a drunk teen at last
