I say throw it in a pot and make soup. Okay, tie a string around it, first. Name the soup after your dad. You're welcome.

To me it’s weird to NOT wanna keep something that’s part of your skeleton! Throwing a tooth in THE TRASH sounds so wasteful.

But I also keep my removed femoral head in a jar so…

Oh sure, when a parent collects teeth from their children it is endearing, but when I collect their teeth it is 'creepy' and 'unsettling' and 'how did I even get those I don't remember losing so many teeth'

so many double standards in the world, tooth fairy has a teeth collection and nobody bats an eye cause it's a "whimsical childhood experience" but when other people want a little treat it's suddenly "grotesque" and "hey what're you doing with those pliers"!

I asked for my grandpas tooth once and he gave me a kidney stone in a pill bottle like…. no sorry I dont want that….. i only want clean bones

my grandma kept all my baby teeth that she could salvage, in the same box she kept her jewelry
I think its only fair that it should work both ways, you get to keep your parent's teeth too if you're willing

Sound like how the hospital banned me for asking woman if I can have the cut cord, how else can I make an umbilical cord necklace?

My mom has all of her and her kids baby teeth and wisdom teeth mixed up in the Teeth Jar, a jar that sits on the shelf and has teeth in it. It seems like your mom is actually the weird one for NOT collecting your dad's tooth

It's wrong to call you a ghoul!

Ghouls eat body parts and you're not going to eat the tooth. I assume. Maybe you will. I won't judge. But I suppose you would be a ghoul in that case.

My mum: what are you doing
Me, rummaging in a bag: looking for my other tooth
Mum: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOUR *OTHER TOOTH*

Me: I’m like the little mermaid. 🎶 Look at this stuff, isn’t it neat
Mum: she didn’t collect fucking TEETH
Me: would have been a better film

My teacher back in school was so upset when I came from a dentist appointment he tried to ask me a question I mumbled and gestured wildly and he didn't get the hint until I raised my finger like "One moment!" got a plastic bag full of blood and a tooth out of my pocket and held it high over my head.

That’s so funny. Flawless prop comedy

He just groaned "!..." and I was sitting there, both palms facing upwards, eyebrows raised like "You forced my hand! This didn't have to end like this!"
