...and I was checking out my mouth with it. Don't ask me why, I was bored. Just looking around in there...and I always wondered what the doctors see when they make you "say ahhhh" and stick your tongue out -- so I did it, and I was horrified.

Have you ever looked down your throat? Do you have any idea what it looks like? It reminded me of the thing that comes out of that chick's stomach in Alien

:Q:disgust::eek:

Hey, if you can get the mirror that far back you must not have a gag reflex. Say, would you like to go out?

I didn't get it that far back, doofus, I just angled it in my mouth. And no I don't want to go out with you. :disgust: ;)

No really, you should get it all the way back on your uvula. Warm the mirror under a faucet and then look. You might be able to see your vocal cords. They'll be the big white V behind the epiglottis.

Remember this is what doctors look at every day, and they don't find it disgusting. Sometimes people are much prettier on the inside, literally.

Good suggestions, jumblies, next time I'm waiting for the doc I know how I'll spend my time ;) I wonder if doctors notice if one's grooming is good or bad, or does it all just become one large blur of nose hair and phlegm?

How do you know I'm not "pretty"? Maybe I was just shocked at the incredible amount of wet, red, mucusy skin. :Q

I made no personal comments on you as I'm sure you are vision of perfection, it's just that a pristine intact mucosal surface is pretty in it's own right. Did you see those cords yet?
Your Friend, the Larynx

Make sure you say it "pronounce: lair-nix"

Just like the Pros-Trate gland.
