Don’t brush your teeth, causes slight bleeding and opens wounds, increasing the possibility that a kiss from your date (who has probably recently brushed their teeth) could spread disease. Of course if you don’t brush your teeth you won’t have to worry about that kiss…hmm, brush your teeth. Live dangerously 🙂

I couldn’t tell the sex of most of the people who post here by their handle. I guess its important to tell us what gender you are when posting.

Still, I wonder how you arranged a date with someone you don’t know?
