You can get a sonicare for $25. Pick up your money off the floor!!!

Cleans better (in my case anyway).

Way more thorough clean. Also they auto shut off after the time so you’re less likely to shortcut teethbrushing.

I’ve tried all the models and keep coming back to the cheap $25 sonicare. It has a larger head than the $200 diamond models (or whatever they’re called) and IMO does a much better clean. Sometimes it sound tinny, but you just have to tighten the handle.

dentist recommended. and part of that recommendation is putting enough pressure to remove plaque without too much pressure to remove enamel (easy to do with manual)

Probably because my uncle invented the first rotary electronic toothbrush which has led to the modern day design. I was introduced to it as a small child since we got them every year for Christmas. I get a far better feeling of cleanliness from an electronic than a manual + less effort. Been using the Sonicare line for the past decade.

I was damaging my gums with regular brushing (by bursting too hard I guess) and sonicare seems to have fully stopped that. Dentist said SC is the best.

2 minutes with the electric brush seems like a normal amount of time, while 2 minutes of manual brushing feels like an eternity

Brought my gf sushi take out to her house when she got off of work. She didn't like the meal I got her and started to eat the roll i got for myself. She noticed I wasn't eating so I told her I ate before rather than tell her she was actually eating my dinner. She's now mad at me that I "lied" even though I did it so she wouldn't be embarrassed. Who's in the wrong

So something crazy happened to me last week. I was at the airport, and as usual on call after call.

After that, he keeps trying to talk to me, eventually I got to the check, say bye and leave. At security… tbc

Hi all,
I’m currently working for a small technical consulting start-up firm. I make good money, have great benefits, and they seem very happy with the work I’m doing, so I know I could move up quickly. However, tech consulting is definitely not my dream job. I want to get into data analytics, and I have an offer from a big company to do just that. I’ve only been at my current company for about 8 months, but I don’t ever see myself loving this job. How do I know when it’s time to make a change?
