DentistsMy current dentist is called Mr Stiff.
Back when I was at university though, I had enormous pain in my jaw one morning - so bad I went as an emergency case to the uni dentist.
He took one look at the back of my mouth and said, "Ah, wisdom teeth. Impacted. They'll have to come out."
He then reached under the chair and came out with an enormous industrial (and entirely non-dental) pair of pliers, "I can do it now if you want..."

Calfderno - Thanks for reinforcing the image of the frustrated, patronising dentist.
I personally have nothing against dentists - I've been lucky and had some great ones who have fixed what needed to be fixed and advised me professionally (I've had also my share of bad ones, who have ended up paying me..).
I have a particular place in my black, bitter heart for those in the medical profession who have nothing better to do than say things like: "You come to us with problems you have mostly brought on yourself through your own laziness and or ignorance and expect us to fix them" (amongst other patronising ramblings)
Yes we do expect you to fix them - and Dentists get paid handsomely, so they should shut the fuck up and do their job.
And should you ever be in a situation where a nerve is sliced in two, bringing you into a world of unbearable white agony and excruciating blinding pain, I hope you will think of those poor 'Chinese' and 'medieval peasants'.
Please print out your post and hang it in your "Surgery" - your patients deserve to know who is operating on them.
Utter, utter fucking Cock, Sir/Madam.
