ah yes. I am familiar with that particular style of annoying affection. Never content with a lap they want to be exactly where they will be most disruptive and in some cases inappropriate.

they're doctors...I doubt it. I'm sure they'll welcome less time shoved in peoples mouths destroying teeth in order to save others. From a monetary standpoint....there will likely be more post procedure visits since it takes weeks for the regrowth to complete and I'm sure it would probably require monitoring.

When the tropes were created mobile phones and smart phones didn't exist. It's a very slow learning curve to adjust plotting with new technology. Do you know how long it took for TV and Movies to acknowledge that people had cell phones. The characters in Buffy the Vampire Slayer didn't have cell phones until their last season in 2003. In my small midwestern town we had them as early as 1999 so you know they were more prevalent in California years before that. They are just getting used to have mobile phones effecting the plots. That's why any smartphones seen are only used for calls or facetime which is more visually dynamic.

My Girl Scout troop had a couple little brothers do everything with us. They said it was more fun than cub scouts. We learned astronomy, camping skills, and public speaking. Curriculum is pretty much up to the individual troop leaders. So how "girly" it is depends on that. My leaders were a couple of farmers' wives and allowed a lot of independent study with one on one attention with them. I was the only girl scout to achieve a computer badge in my troop (it was '86 so it mostly involved a calculator and BASIC).

Having worked at GSA at the state level, anyone can be a Girl Scout, no matter what age or gender. The only requirement is paying the yearly dues.

The Boys Scouts is very conservative organization with close ties to the US military and the LDS church. GSA on the other hand is very liberal at the National level but the autonomy they give to the troop leaders sometimes leads to a disconnect of values.
