Dentist: "Do you floss daily?"
Me: "Do you backup your data daily?"
@fribbledom Dentist: "No, but my teeth won't rot if I don't do a backup."
(BTW I agree that flossing daily is too often.)
@underlap @fribbledom Wait what?? Isn't the usual recommendation to floss 3x per day? (That's my dendists recommendation and that's what I've learned as a kid.) I mean I barely get to 2x per day, but... not even once?
@tobtobxx @fribbledom I think the jury is out: e.g. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-36962667

Studies say a bunch of stuff; I have empirical experience that people who do floss have better teeth, and I'm one of those who doesn't do it...
