4. Have Complex Oral Surgery

Because the tooth fairy is just a tad beyond your years.  And because it is cool to show off the battle wounds that are the dime-sized holes in your mouth.  Wisdom tooth extraction can be the perfect semi-scary surgery for any adolescent (or twenty five year old).  Brag about the Vicodin.  Dangle bloody gauze in front of your little sister's face.  Drink the milkshakes.  Lose the straw.  And just tell your teachers you'll make up  your work when you no longer have to suction food particles out of your pie-hole with a syringe.
