You just hit on a woman by telling her your philosophy of flossing? You sound so unfairly cynical. The main point is not about flossing. It's about having a philosophy. Women are looking for a man who has strong ideas. But your philosophy is so contradictory.

Today on the Ask Sadie Show, we'll be addressing one single topic: Wondering. In my day, when a body said I wonder why dust bunnies are called dust bunnies, it led to all sorts of delightful speculation.
