flavored latex dental gloves

put flavoring on the latex gloves and dental dams the dentist shoves in your mouth.

Have you tasted your dentist's gloves? Ick! A little mint of peach or choclate covered onion flavoring would really make a trip to the dentist more plesant. They already make flavored dental floss and toothpaste, what not everything else you shove in there. Also it may have some other non-dental uses (eh-hem)

If you're going to make a typo the title of your web page is as good a place as any, I suppose. [st3f, Jun 28 2002, last modified Oct 21 2004]

       Tuned right into your wavelength sputnik, half way through a couple of root canal fillings in a pathetic attempt to stave off decrepitude, those rubber dams taste like, well ,like rubber.

       Baked (unless you actually do mean "flovored"). My orthodontist uses grape flavored gloves.
It appears that they are also available in bubble gum and strawberry. (link)

       I had considered changing the spelling, but when I saw that it was spelled "flovoring" in the summary, I began to think that sputnik5 had done this intentionally.

       I quite liked the sound of 'flovoring'. It reminded me of the 'plover' which to me is both a pretty bird and a pretty word. I didn't feel that I should discriminate in its favour just because I liked it. Does sputnik5 have anything to say on the matter?

       I can see it now:   

       Dentist: Ouch! what the hell did you bite my finger for?   

       Patient: MMmmm, Strawberries..

       Strawberry finger stalls (also known as hutkins), just the thing for that sweet-tasting proctological exam. I would guess.

       Ah...oops. Maybe I should pretend to be from another country.   

       I beleive in typing, and never looking back. Well, I dont beleive in it as much as I just do it. Im glad you all enjoyed it. I'm also sad to know that the gloves (with the flovoring) already exist. What next, flavored popcicles?! Dont get me started on the silent jackhammer.

       From the "didn't catch the two seperate ideas, misread the title" department, this idea combined with the last line of "Pollution-collecting Fish" to form "Fish flavored latex dental gloves".   

       Yuck.

       [more admin: spelling change flavored -> flavoured]   

       What exactly are these other uses you propose, sputnik5?

       I hate it when my proctologist/dentist forgets to switch gloves

       last time i went to the dentist his gloves were dripping with disinfectant, tasted foul and made my face wet. maybe someone gave him flavoured gloves but he doesnt believe in being that nice.

       As of last week I can provide first hand confirmation (or is it second hand information when it's based on someone else's hand in your mouth?) of the bubble gum flavored gloves. Subtle, light tutti-frutti bouquet, better than the grape.
