After wisdom teeth extraction
dsmegst
I will gladly polish off a family sized Stouffer's lasagna in her place.
Aintlurkingnomo
This is really funny, but my only question is why would you take someone who just had their wisdom teeth pulled into a food market? Shouldn't you get them home to rest?

Immediately was like “wisdom teeth?” And sure enough

Same reaction I had when I learned my aunt's delicious apple crumble was made with apples from a can. Only found out when pre marriage I managed to convince my wife to make apple crumble and told her my aunt peeled the apples by hand in hers trust I liked so much. After making a delicious apple crumble and peeling the apples by hand she quietly asked my aunt one Christmas if she peeled the apples in hers. The reaction was along the lines of ain't no one got time for that.

I've been duped into making a gluten-free, lactose free, vegetarian lasagne for Christmas for the inlaws.. I feel like crying but maybe the tears will add to the flavor.

I had 4 wisdom teeth extracted in Sweden, they had to drill into my jaw to get the lower ones out. I got local anesthesia for it. Is it somehow cheaper to drug people up This much in the US? 🤷♀️ Or is it only for people who are terrified of going to the dentist?

Wait till she finds out about Santa and the tooth fairy.

My older brother had these vivid memories of enjoying our grandmothers homemade cream pudding, finally a few years ago, while he and his girlfriend were visiting our grandparents he manned up and asked her for the recipe. Turns out, she's been using a pudding powder from the local supermarket since forever, as she said, she never had time to make pudding with all the other cooking she was doing.

What kind of Italians it makes us?
RoombaTheAssaultVacuum
Od rather buy Lasagna if I want it constantly. Having made it a few times, it always takes a good long while just to get it ready, and then to bake. It's a lit of effort. It tasted Hella good, but I was exhausted every time I hand made lasagna.

Wait till she finally realizes that fresh squeezed Orange Juice happened without ever buying oranges!
UnBobaLievable
My Italian mom would have the same reaction if I bought lasagna
YippeeKayakOB
If lasagna tears her up, life will hit her like a ton of bricks

I would take that as an insult

Why? Stouffers frozen lasagna is pretty damn good.

Is it a forbidden topic to talk about how some countries don't really do this kind of anesthesia for wisdom teeth? I've had two pulled (one was crushed and taken out in pieces) and I only had local anesthesia for both.
rayvn
I'm in Canada, I had one pulled a few months ago, only local was needed. I could've opted for general if I chose to go to a surgeon /1
rayvn
/2 instead of my usual dentist. The surgeon would've been required if it hadn't already erupted, I don't know if general would've been req.
AlexSomething
I had 4 removed, 2 of them (badly) impacted. Surgeon decided general anesthesia was best. Got surgered at 2 pm. Woke up around 6pm. A bit groggy (as usual with general anesthesia) but not at all stoned like that poor lady. I was home 1h later.
GoliathSkittles
I had the same thing, 4 removed at once, put under for it and just woke up feeling normal.
spongerX
In my country it depends on the level of difficulty of removal. All 4 of mine were removed as a teenager. General anesthesia. I know others who have had 1 or 2 removed at a time by the same dentist and it was local anesthesia.
necrojoe
Some of those countries include the US. I'm in the process of planning my wisdom teeth extractions, and they asked what type I wanted. A friend of mine just had 2 non-wisdom teeth pulled. For the first, he was given local. For the 2nd one, he was headed somewhere right after and didn't want to deal with the numbing, so he passed on even the local anesthetic.
Sipulikeitto
When I was about +20 yrs old, I got 4 wisdom teeth pulled out. One exploded between the pliers, one needed to cut into pieces due hook like roots and two came off nicely. All in two weeks and just local anesthesia. No need for anything else.
Sipulikeitto
Though, watching how US uses all kind of medicines and medicinal products, most of them looks way too overkill. Especially painkillers and antibiotics.
AwetasticAdventures
I'm in the US, and all my wisdom teeth were crushed and taken out in pieces over a period of time.
HoneyBunchesOfStoats
In the US you can choose depending on the difficulty of the extraction and how much anxiety you have about dental work. I opted for full anesthesia because I was having all 4 surgically removed at the same time
Eazeh
I got to pick (NZ). I picked local primarily because general would have cost more and been riskier.
nothingunused
I am in the US and have never had general anaesthesia for dental work. I have never gone to one of those "we'll knock you out for basic procedures" places, though.
JaneAirfryer
I will never understand people who film this and then post it online for the entire world to ridicule her forever
Mithi
I would love to see a video of me waking up from the GA, if only to see 3 nurses doting on me to keep my agitated self lying still. No recollection after really waking up.
TheRicM
What if she herself found it funny and was like, “yeah post this video of me”
Mercenarity
not always ridicule, but still exposed to. imo this stuff should only be uploaded with something like informed consent, otherwise it's kind of unfair and a bit mean. not everyone wants to become a meme.
Sooner70
Who's ridiculing her? Sure, we're laughing at the situation, but no one is ridiculing her. Pretty much everyone who's had that procedure has some sort of bizarro story about the aftermath.
putcleverusernamehere
100% guarantee she laughs her ass off at this. I've never had an experience like this, but if I did and someone *didn't* film it and just told me later, I'd be so disappointed
RocketKokket
It's not ridicule to laugh collectively at a shared human experience. We all act like fools after anesthesia
BishlamekGurpgork
Let me guess. Only child?
hairlessOrphan
Usually I'm with you, but for real this one time, that "you think you know somebody" was a first round KO.
tootallforthisroom
I got a wisdom tooth pulled (read: crushed and the individual pieces picked out... but not all of em!!) and I was nothing but a cranky asshole all day. I wanna cry about lasagna!
EatsBees
i was almost completely nonverbal for 3 days. even over IMs and text, i went from using full sentences to "k". after the 3 days i was fine and back to my normal chatty self
Sooner70
Trade ya.... I apparently noticed that my feet were numb and was fascinated by the lack of pain. So (and this part I do remember) I proceeded to beat the shit out of my lower legs and marvel at the lack of pain. Mom was trying to stop me, but she wasn't strong enough. Took a couple weeks for all the bruises to fade.
professionallazyperson
Really? I got all 4 out at the same time. Got an IV of, quote: anti-inflammatories, a steroid, and “a strong narcotic”. Still don’t know what opiate they gave me (I assume morphine?) but that’s probably the closest I’ll ever get in life to knowing what heroin feels like. Goddamn was it good once it kicked in, also why I’d never touch the stuff again outside of a hospital because I can see the appeal now. Opiate addicts: I see you. No thanks.
EclipsePhase
Apparently I went on an expletive laden rant about how terrible pop music is and warned the dentist you can "get thrush in your mouth and your cunt"
popeyeNL
What kind of drugs did they give you? I had an injection in the gums, nothing else. I drove home immediately after extraction.
tootallforthisroom
Same deal. Local anesthesia. Miserable experience.
TheOneAndOnlyButtStabber
I had that but all 4 of them and then i got dry sockets on the bottom because the top drained into them and had to deal with it for a week. When they would clean the holes, i would sweat through my shirt and nurses held my arms down because it hurt so badly
TotallyNotGLaDOS
Just wait till they find out that I’ve never baked a cake.
kahooki
Can I have at least a fresh home made Coke then? *eyes watering*
TheEvilPlatypus
And why would you when there are plenty of definitely still alive humans that could do it for you?

I make brownies from scratch: 2 eggs, water, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and Betty Crocker mix.

The cake is a lie?

I would need to find a post, but theres one where bakers said that box cake with a few addtions gets you 90% as good as from scratch.
textilelover
I made my daughter's bat mitzvah cake from box. Did make the chocolate mousse and ganache for frosting/filling from scratch. Super rich friends of my in-laws are there and the dude said he would hire me for the next event that needed a cake. People cannot tell the diff between box and scratch.
electronicbovine
Alton Brown argues box cake is better, since it comes with additives that help greatly
VincentV189
His stuff is so good!

Seriously, what kind of sedatives are you using? I've had several teeth removed, and I only ever felt numb, it never messed with my mind.
Zoroasterisk
General vs. local anesthesia, sounds like
SterlingArcherSecretAgent
General - is that narcosis? That seems a little extreme just for removing a tooth.
Loserbeans
I elected to have general anaesthetic when I got all four of my wisdom teeth taken out at once because they were so low down in my jaw and I have severe anxiety about anything to do with the dentist. Like, verging on a panic attack just getting a checkup and hearing the tools. It was a long wait in the Medicare system (in Australia) but it was a better experience for everyone involved
SterlingArcherSecretAgent
Damn, 4 at once?! That is wild. I've had 4 removed, but one at a time, that made it ok under local anesthetics.
Loserbeans
Stretching it out over multiple operations was definitely not going to be better than all at once for me XD and it meant getting my braces on quicker, and then it didn't matter how much anxiety I had with my teeth because I could convince my brain it was out of my hands. But again, massive baby when it comes to dentistry and living off soup for two weeks and needing my jaw realigned was definitely worth it
Kalavier
Wisdom teeth can be harder? I had to have oral surgery to remove the one based on how it and a molar was interacting/near nerves and such. I got the spiked soda/laughing gas mix. I was disappointed the gas did not make me laugh
SterlingArcherSecretAgent
I had one of mine surgically removed, took an hour, and it was under local anesthetics as well. Took like 8 shots though, but it worked :-)
thor0486
General anesthesia is way more fun though! haha Maybe not for her but lots of people are just super happy goofy instead of super sad goofy. You hardly remember it either way and you're being closely monitored and are not a danger to anyone.
necrojoe
Sort of, sometimes. There's two generall types, one of them milder, but people use "General" for both. Scroll down to "During the procedure" about halfway down: https://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/wisdom-tooth-extraction/about/pac-20395268
SterlingArcherSecretAgent
Right I was thinking of loss of consciousness. I see general anesthesia does that - but not necessarily narcosis. Still seems extreme to me.
necrojoe
Amusingly, my insurance will cover sedation, but not the bone graft than 3 different dentists say I need when I get my wisdom tooth pulled.
Twrecks123
The best thing about your mom’s lasagna being bought from the store? It means you can have that lasagna any time you want.
Richter12x2
Most storebought lasagna is vile. I'd rather eat it from a can than Stouffer's. Michael Angelos though is really very good.

You guys have moms!?
GoliathSkittles
My mum's potato salad is the best thing I've ever eaten and she refuses to tell me the recipe, "oh I just make it up as I go" THEN HOW COME ITS THE SAME EVERY TIME, tell me your secrets, woman!
Koldfront
My mom very rarely bought store made meals, which has had the opposite effect on me sadly. It's also a double whammy as evey time I visit, she always asks if there's a particular dish I want to eat, only to then get frustrated when I say "anything is fine".
SkamanSam
I used to rave about my aunts lasagna she used to serve at parties. I helped her once (after decades of her tasty lasagna) and found out it was fucking stouffers. I was severely taken aback, but my immediate thought was "fuck yeah, i can have my aunts tasty lasagna anytime i want!"
NoNameFred
Until they change the recipe or discontinue the brand, and then you can never have it again.
lonelyrangerofthedreams
By that time you will already lost hope in the world and started a spiral of depression going down, so you will not really care anymore
Beelsebooob
"improve" the recipe.
HonHomes
Yeah, this summer Aldi changed their ice-cream. It doesn't taste as good now. Bastards.
Xenavire
This. This happens so goddamn often - if my mother wasn't making homemade, I'd have definitely noticed the change every few years, because not only do the change or discontinue them with a high degree of regularity, they all taste pretty significantly differently.
astrangehop
I haven't had a Mrs Paul's fishstick in years. The breading was almost sandy. Cane with a little pouch of chopped pickles to make tartar sauce.
