Remember to floss / Recuerda usar hilo dental

La versión en español está después de la versión en inglés.

I’ve had breakfast, and brushed and flossed my teeth. Time for a mind and body fitness walk in the sunshine. I’ll take care of laundry and plants when I return. I plan to work on my Apple pencil skills (of which I have none) this afternoon. Today’s image is a reminder of the vital importance of flossing. I don’t mean any offense, but from what I can tell, most men around here do not floss. I didn’t come across a single one. I did find lots of lots of women who do, but sharing all those images seemed pervy and disrespectful. Odd, had they all been men, it wouldn’t have felt that way at all. Well, maybe pervy. But to distract you, I included images of Moose (top) and Dudo. And for good measure, I included a shot of a guy in one-leg-shorter shorts.

Desayuné, me cepillé y usé hilo dental. Es hora de una caminata para ejercitar la mente y el cuerpo bajo el sol. Me ocuparé de la ropa y las plantas cuando regrese. Planeo trabajar en mis habilidades con el lápiz Apple (de las cuales no tengo ninguna) esta tarde. La imagen de hoy es un recordatorio de la importancia vital del uso del hilo dental. No quiero ofender, pero, por lo que puedo decir, la mayoría de los hombres por aquí no usan hilo dental. No me encontré con uno solo. Encontré muchas mujeres que lo hacen, pero compartir todas esas imágenes parecía pervertido e irrespetuoso. Extraño, si todos hubieran sido hombres, no se habría sentido así en absoluto. Bueno, tal vez pervertido. Pero para distraerte, incluí imágenes de Moose (arriba) y Dudo. Y por si acaso, incluí una foto de un chico con pantalones cortos de una pierna más cortos.

• Dudo and Moose sometimes share their office chair with San Geraldo, who seated himself in the dining room on this particular day.
• Dudo y Moose a veces comparten su silla de oficina con San Geraldo, quien se sentó en el comedor ese día en particular.

  1. You have no idea how relieved I am you spared us for most of the floss pictures!

    You’re my first stop here today so that first picture really tickled me.

    1. Mistress Borghese:
      I had about a dozen floss photos. I added them to the post and then thought better of it.

  2. Those up-and-down men, do they regularly rotate legs or do they end up with strange tans?

  3. I think that variety of flossing is generally a bad idea, no matter how good one’s backside is.

    Good for you for flossing your teeth, though. I’m often too lazy. So far I haven’t paid the price but it will all catch up with me one of these days.

  4. I used to be a dental hygienist, so bravo to you for flossing. Once a day is plenty. As for the “other” kind, I leave that to the young women. I think it helps to have a shapely tush.

    1. TexasTrailerParkTrash:
      I don’t care how shapely the tush, find those floss bathing suits (and underwear) unappealing. Well yes, a shapely tush is still nice to look at.

  5. Given the high incidence of “Delhi Belly”/”Pharaoh’s Revenge” (or whatever the equivalent is in Spain) that tourists who aren’t used to the food or the heat get, I would have thought that kind of flossing to be most unhygienic… Jx

  6. I floss every night, but only the dental hygiene way. I’m afraid I’m not a fan of the other flossing no matter who’s doing it. I’ll never forget the first time my kids saw one at the beach on a woman who shouldn’t have been wearing one. They were grossed out. Makes me want to pick at things.

    1. Kelly:
      I agree with you and the kids! When we lived in Vegas, the fashion was to wear low-rise jeans and let the floss show at back.
