I almost voted Yes for today's poll. But then I remembered what "tonsil" meant (in Finnish "nielurisa"). I still have my tonsils intact but I have had my wisdom teeth taken out. That was a pretty painful and otherwise distressing operation. They actually had to remove *five* teeth. One wisdom tooth had actually decided to grow sideways instead of up, inside the jawbone, heading straight into the live root of a non-wisdom tooth, thus killing it.
