Watching TV (television) again and a testimonial type advertisement came on. I laughed and everbody looked at me oddly. But nothing could compare to what came next.
The ad was for Sensodyne Toothpaste which apparently took away toothache pains. A woman dressed in a nice pantsuit came on and said this:
"My teeth were just in incomparable pain. I couldn't eat solid food, and the pain was constant. It was worse than labour."
Did you hear that? Worse than labour. Worse than labour. Okay. Apparently this woman's toothache was more painful that shoving a baby out her vag. Makes sense. Yeah. I mean, obviously when she had her child (who ran into the scene after she had given her testimonial, btdubs) he just magically appeared in her arms after nine months.
Speaking of childbirth, I hate it in movies when they have to reenact it. Like, we all know to an extent what happens during especially if you had to watch a movie in school called a lame name along the terms of "The Miracle of Childbirth" or "The Birth of a Child" or "Life, in Seven Disgusting Hours Compacted Into 25 Minutes". So why?
The actresses that have to do the extremely uncomfortable scene (or sometimes actors, you know, film these days) will have these greatly unflattering clips in the world forever more and can you imagine filming it? I mean, obviously it isn't real (or is it?), but the stage directions. And the awkwardness.
"Hey... so spread your legs... yeah, just put them up in these strap things... okay, now he-- yeah, him in the doctor's outfit-- he's going to... you know. And you're going to have to scream and also... can you make the blood rush to your face? I want it red... how 'bout you hand upside down for a bit... okay, now here's the fake sweat..."
God, personally I'd drop out. Especially if I'd already had a child. Hell no, I already had the live, real version of this. How 'bout you do it?
