The Coke lost its carbonation in the pour.

I'm sick of going to the dentist every time, and having the hygienist tell me I need to floss more. My brushing's great... but I need to floss everyday. Well, I don't know whothehell flosses everyday. I tried. It's not like I didn't -- I try every year! -- but it's not very... conceivable. I think my gums are way better off than most of the people who go to the dentist regularly and certainly better than people who don't go as much as they should. I'm a good girl! I go to the dentist twice a year. I go to the gynecologist twice a year. I go to the gym twice a year. I don't need to floss!
And who else remembers when shampoo came in brands and scents?? How easy was it then! when you knew what brand you liked, and all you needed to do was choose if you wanted to smell like peaches or apples. It's such an ordeal buying a bottle of shampoo these days. You have to know the type of your hair, and how your hair looks, and how you want it to look, and how it feels, and how you want it to feel. You have to know how it is, and where it's been, and what you've done to it, and if it wants fries with that. It's not like it's a tween! that needs to be constantly observed and questioned and loved to make sure it's not smoking weed. As far as I know, my hair's only friends are the other hairs around it.
Not gonna lie -- I've been sorta mean to my hair, but... I think we're both better for it.
...And then there's the conditioner....
Heh, see, here's the funny thing about hair... it's a metaphor for middle school kids. ???!

your hair loves you unconditionally. it must, or it would have committed suicide long ago after what we put it through.

and i second the flossing thing. every damn time i go, they tell me the exact same thing.
