yet another story about oral hygiene

one of my friends is french. indelibly so. the other day he had a dental appointment that made him late to an afternoon meeting. as he walked in, i asked him how everything went.

"let me ask you a question," he said, by way of reply. "do you guys floss?"

"fuck no," i explained. "of course not," someone chimed in.

"oh, okay," he said, looking visibly relieved. "the dental hygienist asked me if i flossed. i wasn't sure, so i had to ask her: 'what is flossing?'"
