I once was in the mirror with some dental floss trying to get at a stuck piece of romaine lettuce. When I finally dislodged it, instead of coming out of my mouth with the floss, it decided to sit on the front of my tooth.

As I'm ineffectively swiping at it with the floss I get an idea: what if I had a bunch of pieces of floss, instead of just one... And if I made them stiffer, it'd be easier to just get in there and swipe things off the sides of my teeth... Like a little mouth broom... Or a toothbrush! ...I'm an idiot.
