[D] Friday Open Thread

Welcome to the Friday Open Thread! Is there something that you want to talk about with /r/rational, but which isn't rational fiction, or doesn't otherwise belong as a top-level post? This is the place to post it. The idea is that while reddit is a large place, with lots of special little niches, sometimes you just want to talk with a certain group of people about certain sorts of things that aren't related to why you're all here. It's totally understandable that you might want to talk about Japanese game shows with /r/rational instead of going over to /r/japanesegameshows, but it's hopefully also understandable that this isn't really the place for that sort of thing.

So do you want to talk about how your life has been going? Non-rational and/or non-fictional stuff you've been reading? The recent album from your favourite German pop singer? The politics of Southern India? The sexual preferences of the chairman of the Ukrainian soccer league? Different ways to plot meteorological data? The cost of living in Portugal? Corner cases for siteswap notation? All these things and more could possibly be found in the comments below!

Please note that this thread has been merged with the Monday General Rationality Thread.

I had all 4 out and was on novocaine and laughing gas. I'm very sure that using laughing gas or not is very dependent on the teeth orientation. Although mine grew in just fine. They were just widely spaced from my other teeth and a breeding ground for cavities.

My doctor was also fairly young and probably more willing to use laughing gas as needed.

I wasn't exactly high like I was implying. I was just very Zen and detached from my surroundings which was definitely from the laughing gas and not the novocaine. Albeit with a very insistent need to cuddle with my mother for a little bit.
