I Use You 3 Times A Day

"Treat your password like your toothbrush. Don't let anybody else use it, and get a new one every six months." -Clifford Stoll

So after all the eating - its brush time!

I remember days when the sight of brushing one's teeth was not allowed to be in TV ads. You just see models sashaying on the poolside and blowing kisses to boys and making them chill, rather, in colloquial terms, kilig to their bones. Of course post-Eric Bains era, you not just see chalk being broken to resemble a weak tooth, but the act of putting on toothpaste (with tricolor) and brushing (although a view from the back) is now allowed.

As a kid, I linked brushing to "getting ready for bed." Apparently even the fact that we were told to do so, we still have the "midnight snack" composed of ice cream, a glass of coke and a sinful finger-licken icing from last night's party to go with us to dreamland. Ergo - molars that look like asphalted roads of EDSA. Tagpi tagpi with fillings. :)

But if your name is McConaughey, and you've been voted the Sexiest Man Alive, this is not your problem. Here are facts about him and his best friend:
• He brushes his teeth 2-5 times a day. Sometimes the brushing will last 15 minutes.(via Celebrity Couples Online)
• In his shower, he has Sonicare toothbrushes (note the plural tense, nerd) because he always brush his teeth in the shower. (via People)
• The heartthrob actor says he's skilled enough he can steer his car while he's polishing his molars. (via Female First)

But I'm not Matthew McConaughey and my beer gut will not make me the sexiest man alive (with a toothbrush) - but I do follow oral hygiene, I brush 3x a day (singing Happy Birthday each time, as a required length of a good brushing) and - and - I'm waiting for me to go back to the Philippines to see my dentist - as dentists in Canada will cost me an arm and a leg ($ 120) for just one of succeeding visits.

One thing I have over McConaughey, and everyone knows about this - "he has not worn deodorant for the last 22 years. Nothing but soap and water." Sexiest man alive nga, patay naman ang partner mo sa bed during summer.
