Enough Already



I was over at Kill this Character and D-Cap posted about the characters in the Sea Bond ads.
That got me to thinking, why are people over 50 getting their teeth whitened so much they look like they're wearing dentures?
I am not immune to the dictates of society myself- my dentist has brightened my teeth a little, but no so much that I can light up a room when I enter it.
But why must people like crusty old Ed McMahon overdo it?
Are we expected to believe a guy that old has maintained sheet white choppers for the last 80 years? Feh.
John McCain needed a little brightening, but not so much that he looks like he's in a Poligrip ad like Ed does.
People, by all means tell your dentists to do it, just don't overdo it. Okay?
