The second last time I went to a dentist, he told me I had been brushing my teeth wrong. Cool, bought the TeethIoniser5000 plus recommended toothpaste from his suggestion.

Last time I went to the dentist, he told me that I was still brushing my teeth wrong. "But the last guy?"

"Wrong. He was wrong."

Every fucking dentist has told me whatever way I brush my teeth, I'm doing it wrong, so fuck them. Now I just use my finger.

Don't do that, as I have one tooth left I use to open cans.

I'm genuinely thankful you've made it this obvious how much of a fucking moron you are as I can block you immediately and get on with my day.

I can't work out how to upvote this on the app as I have been at the pub. Take this comment as considerable appreciation for this image ๐Ÿ™

They would just claim it was to 'make the them look bad' or something similar. That's the beauty of bullshit; it's like a perpetual avalanche. It's overwhelming and incredibly difficult to counter.

I don't know why I find this so hilarious.

Okay, if we're getting serious about it, I'm not sure I agree cruelty scales up alongside intelligence. It's an interesting take, but, as you say, it's an entirely human concept which doesn't really exist outside of our own conceived morality and can't be applied to beings which aren't capable of understanding it.

Put it this way: a cat batting a mouse around isn't considering its actions cruel or even considering its actions in a wider context at all. A human doing the same would be doing both. However, by that logic, animals aren't capable of any other abstract thought such as compassion, empathy and altruism. We are. It might be the case that everything abstract scales up with intelligence which, yes, leads to concepts such as 'cruelty' but also all the other amazing shit humans are capable of.

Sorry man, but I can't stop laughing at you calling an entire animal species 'evil'. Not only that, but 'notoriously evil'. Like there's a chapter in the Bible devoted to the tale of a dolphin riding Jesus up his dead arsehole.

Exactly. Being close to pissing myself in the cinema due to the incessant false summit endings soured that film a bit. Rewatching the extended version at home was amazing though.
