Tooth acheeeey

I am wise. I even have the tooth to prove it - well, half of it anyway.
Yes, this is an entirely vestigial post, but I merely wanted to vent my anger over this new protruding thing in my mouth. I say GRRRR!! to you, Mr Wisdom Teeth. Seriously, why would God make us have something that we don't even need?! Even the appendix (long denigrated as being superfluous) is now being discovered as to pertaining a function.
But noooo, not wisdom teeth. Apparently only 5% of the population have them growing correctly- so for the 95% of us out there who have troublesome molars, we have to all suffer.
Of course, if this pain was being compensated by say, an increase in my IQ or even my EQ, I would quietly sit and endure it. But something tells me that the link between wisdom and intelligence and the last four molars can no longer be supported by the remaining vestiges of ancient wives tales.
