Abscessed tooth on a weekend night. Last "scuffle" I got into was a couple years about 2:00am at Walmart trying to get to the Orajel; some non-English speaking dude was mopping the floor and grabbed me by the shirt and started pullin on me and yelling at me in an unknown language as I walked all careful like over his freshly mopped floor to try to get a tube of it. Bad move on his part, a lot of merchandise got knocked off the shelves as I slung his stupid azz into the racks. Poor fellow's mop bucket got knocked over and he had a wet ass at best. Bad move on my part too; I was escorted from the store, but clung fiercely to the Orajel which I offered to either purchase or fight my way out of the store for. They let me pay for it but had the on duty "security" dude walk me to my car and admonish me soundly all the way. We had to walk slow though cause he was about as old as Methusaleh, or maybe even as old as Lonewolf49. I was serious about that toothache. Serious as a heart attack. Not my normal modus operandi, but an abscessed tooth can make a calm and gentle man, like myself, turn into a raging maniac.
A couple of years ago I was working on a dozer and one of the skid plates came down and busted me in the mouth cracked all of my top row down the right side and it all happened on a late Friday evening. All of the emergency dental places I called didn't return my calls until Monday morning but ever since then I get nasty toothaches because I can't afford false teeth yet. Which really sucks because I can't eat hot or cold stuff I haven't been able to enjoy ice cream for almost 4 years hell sometimes just brushing my teeth hurts so bad I want to punch my own teeth out.
