YSaC, Vol. 1542: I call $9,800 candy, ya know what that means?
Dental Certificate for Veneers
I received a dental Certificates to Riccobene Associates family Denistry for 6 Veneers from a friend who won it in a competition. I went by there for an appointment all excited about getting Veneers but they said I am not a candidate for Veneers. I’d like to see what i can get for it. Open for barter. Their prices for 6 Veneers is $9800, which I think is a bit steep but if you have the certificate then it’s free. I am told the certificate is only good for Veneers and not good for other dental services. Please let me know what you have and wish to barter. Please don’t email me asking “What do you want for it?” Since I’ve made it clear above. Thank you.
I’m not sure what’s scarier, the fact that this person somehow won a gift card for $10,000 in elective dentistry, or the fact that they think they’ve made clear what they want for it.
“I’d like to see what I can get” is pretty much the exact opposite of “I’ve made clear what I want.” In fact, I can’t think of a more diametrically opposed position.
Thanks for the post, Ghostie! (“Post Ghosties” is my favorite cereal.)
Well, whaddyaknow, Sparky. I won a coupon for breast augmentation in a raffle, and I am definitely not a candidate, so let’s barter.
Veneer refers to thin slices of wood, usually thinner than 3 mm (1/8 inch). And I want this on my teeth because why?
Who doesn’t want a lovely curly maple or burled walnut smile?
Bit chilly this morning, isn’t it?
Yeah, but by 9AM you can throw off that afghan and dance in the daffodils!!
Response to Ghostie’s question – look what such a smile did for George Washington.
The slivers wood be murder…
[cosmetic dentistry corey] Dental veneers are made of porcelain, not wood. [corey]
[additional dental corey] Washington’s false teeth were made of ivory, not wood.[/corey]
[not remotely dental corey] I like pie [/corey].
[not even a corey] Post Ghosties are part of a complete breakfast.[/corey]
[not.a.corey] I also like ice cream. [/corey]
[also.not.a.corey] I also enjoy ice cream and pie, but not together. {also also.not.a.corey} Or with cookies or cake, even though I like cookies and cake – just not mixed with ice cream. I’m a dessert purist.{[/nested coreys]}
[not really a reply] [cause, you know, it was my question] [and I gave up talking to myself because the voices were always arguing] Now I forgot what I was going to say. [/stuff]
[not.a.reply.to.your.not.really.a.reply] I hate when that happens. [/not.stuff]
[fuzzy reply because I don’t know who’s on first] Beverage time! [/end fuzz]
Because you’re really committed to George Washington cosplay?
You should make sure the veneers on your teeth are made from healthy wood. Otherwise you might get veneereal disease from them.
Exactly. Cashew just imagine where some of those birches have been? I just know I’d never date (a) palm. In the morning, you’d realize you woke up with a dogwood.
Might get a bad case of prickly ash.
Prickly Ash is my “Rumours”-era Fleetwood Mac cover band. I “wood” invite C”…”J to join, but I don’t know if she “wood” agree to dress like Lady Gaga, er, I mean, Stevie Nicks……
nojazzy, you are so fickle! Playing the field in the lounge. Well, C””J and I are wise to you!
[real world corey] I used to dress like Stevie. All. The. Time. I wanted to be her…only with *less heroin [/end real world corey]
*and by ‘less’ I mean zero..nada..none
Windy…you know there’s no one but you….you’re my sun and my stars…you’re the birds in the sky…my first and my last….there’ll never be anyone but you…..never doubt me, my dear…..(…hey C”…..J”, call ya later, ‘k ?)….and Zero.Nada.None is my “YES” uncover band…wanna join?
It’s not wise to mess about with Windy, she’s married to
ChithlhuChethulooShoetutuan Elder God.Shagbark Hickory is my “Bare Trees” -era Fleetwood Mac cover band.
[corey]Sparky did make one thing clear – they want direct offers of “I will give you this/these for that”, not vague “well, I have a bunch of stuff, what do you want”.[/corey]
Also of note, clarity-wise, Spark’ got this coupon ‘from a friend’.
Which rather invites speculation as to what sort of item was bartered for same.
This may also be a clue as to why Spark’ is ‘not a canidate’ for the procedure–what with their name not matching and all.
Which then invotes speculation that the DDS made a specific gift available as a pro bono or charitiable item, only to find some dubious person attempting to reclaim it.
Spark’ you have given me a sad, and I cannot beverage that away for hours’ yet; and that gives me a mad.
Best meth lab competition?
Didn’t the Nobel Committee give veneer certificates as consolation prizes to this year’s runners-up?
Gee Sparks, with only 6 veneers you could still create a nice checkerboard smile. 🙂
And with 6 you get eggroll.
Thanks for the memories!
Sigh! Wish I had some teeth I could put them veneers on. Sometimes life ain’t fair!
I figured it out. Sparks wants you to list what you have and will give them, not ask them what they want.
In which case, I have some pocket lint and a paperclip.
Actually, I think I’ll hold on to the paperclip.
Ferret, Dave, Ferret, C””J, Ferret, Punchity Punch Punch!
Good Morning, eDental!
