Teeth
Which is worse: talking to someone who's missing most of their teeth, or talking to someone with rotten, discolored teeth?
I used to think that people with missing teeth were really creepy. But after meeting so many people (thank you, Petco) with yellow/brown/green teeth, I think I'm changing my mind. When you go up to talk to someone and they open their mouth and it's full of holes, it's quite a shock. But the long-term emotional effects of conversing with rotten-toothed folk is perhaps even more terrible. I just can't get that thick, opaque, yellow film out of my mind. It looks like these peoples' entire gum lines are oozing puss. Or perhaps, scrambled egg.
