Ok, so less a shower thought and more a "random observation while standing in line to vote" thought, but my mind is about equally checked out in both scenarios, so I'll count it.

Same reason I go to the dentist. Dental hygienists are hot as hell.

Yeah. But they’re spitters.

[-] OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Personal preference. I guess I'm just into scrubs and latex in my mouth 🤷🏻‍♂️

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Did you floss for me big daddy?

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 0 points 1 month ago

No... I'm a bad boy.

I thought the punchline was going to be "to get drilled".

Okay, they thought the joke would be “get drilled”

[-] OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I get that; I just wasn't joking

I used to have a roommate who was in dental school. He said getting dates was incredibly easy because everybody realized it was the last time they would be in a large community of single people their age who were also intelligent and had similar interests and earning potential. And indeed, he went out with probably 20 different women that year. And he was incredibly picky and would write them off after one date - she's too loud, too quiet, doesn't drink, drinks too much, swears too much, smokes... Right at the end of the year he found the one, then had to go off and spend 2 years doing public health dentistry in another state to pay for his school loan. After 2 months he found another the one there and dumped the local one. So okay, I'm sure that gripping saga was worth telling lol.

Hm. Hm. Mhm. If I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying that all dental hygienists are whores?

[-] irreticent@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Whores get paid. Dental hygienists are sluts; they give it away for free.

Mine never shut up. Why was my appointment booking an hour?

[-] OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

That's part of it for me. I love listening to idle chatter while my teeth get worked over with implements. And nitrile on gums is better than a deep tissue massage.

Any single dental hygienists near BGKY hmu please

[-] slurpeesoforion@startrek.website 2 points 1 month ago

Mine want a two way conversation. And I have stuff to do.

[-] OldManBOMBIN@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Just go

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
