Editor Gwen will be a little late in responding to your emails and PMs – she normally works with the advertisers – as she had dental work today.

Gwen at the dentist

What I think we in the U.S. would call "wisdom teeth" removed.

Grelber13 Jan 2015 5:48 a.m. PST

My condolences!
Grelber
Who is also wisdom tooth-less.

Disco Joe13 Jan 2015 5:51 a.m. PST

Been there and done that. Definitely no fun at all.

Got lucky on mine. They never "came in", although they're pointed horizontally so I was worried for awhile. My mom had all four taken out at once!

The dentist decided to break one of mine in two in order to get it out. End result was my jaw was misaligned and it took one year of pain to realign it.

All four of mine came in with no problem, but I feel for her. One of my coworkers had hers out over the recent holidays.

and this is news that must be reported?
you must be desparate to get traffic on TMP!!

My daughter just had all four of hers taken out.

I had all mine taken out when I was 16. Due to allergies and asthma concerns I was in the hospital overnight. La-la land for me THAT night! grin

Also, those were the days when the nurses would wake you up in the middle of the night to give you a sleeping pill.

What happened to Brownbear's post?

Pain medications !!! Ice packs, I turned blue with chipmunk cheeks. Best wishes and a speedy recovery !!

Doug em4miniatures13 Jan 2015 9:02 a.m. PST

Best not to ask, it got him banned!

Oh…! I must have misinterpreted the current zeitgeist. I thought we were all very much dedicated to Freedom of Speech just now.

I hope all went well and she will be feeling better soon. Like Sneakgun said pain meds and ice packs are your friends, during these trying times.

OK. Now I am officially confused.

The Editor in Chief was allowed to retort thusly (cue Samuel Jackson voice…):

You can be right patronising Bill, considering that last comment, btw.

I was 100% serious. The Charlie Hebdo case is essentially about the right to offensive speech, isn't it?

So, Brownbear says something offensive and gets his account locked. I vaguely remember what he said, and it wasn't all that offensive. Something along the lines of the tired old cranky "What does this have to do with miniature gaming?" A minor dissent at worst.

So, do we or don't we have a right to offensive speech? Or do we have a right to not be offended?

Are "pussys" banned or "somme nous Charlie"? (Excuse my French, it's been a few decades…)

Personal logo Editor in Chief Bill The Editor of TMP Fezian13 Jan 2015 12:11 p.m. PST

Perhaps I overreacted… grin

and this is news that must be reported?

Yes, because some people will be wondering why she is not answering their messages about advertising!

Besides that, she has a lot of friends here.

So what rule did he break?

His post was rather insulting, but that is not against forum rules.

D A THB13 Jan 2015 1:11 p.m. PST

I had one taken out Monday last week so I know how it feels.

Leadjunky13 Jan 2015 2:55 p.m. PST

An offensive post or a tooth?

Personal logo Murphy Sponsoring Member of TMP13 Jan 2015 4:23 p.m. PST

I had a perm cap put on mine last night….and am going to be test fitted for my upper dentures next weekend….

Thank you! :)

I still remember when my wisdom teeth got taken out. I woke up in the middle of the procedure.

Best wishes on a speedy recovery.
