OKAY

Yes, yes, thank you; the Fox Trot guy is not a dentist. Clearly I've been enjoying a little too much of all the free meds I get as a job perk. I dunno where all these false memories of dentistry jokes in Fox Trot come from. Probably I apply a broken compression algorithm to all the comics I read, so that they overlap in my mind upon recall. That would explain the talking cat, and the three rocks.
