Ticked: While reading about upcoming movies on Wikipedia I found out they're doing a 47 Ronin movie. That's a good thing. The bad thing is they created a new character for the film so they can put Keanu Reeves in it. And apparently they're fucking with the story so it's more like Gladiator.

Ticked: Got punched last night and had one of my front teeth knocked out.

Double Ticked: Average price of a dental implant to replace the tooth is about £1200, it's not available on the NHS and I am unemployed and can barely afford to live as is, without this massive bill.

Triple ticked: I look like a fucking idiot with this missing tooth.

In the US you would be able to sue him for damages and get him to foot the bill for the replacement tooth. Can you not do that in the UK?

Furthermore, I'm interested in what you did to get your tooth knocked out. :lol:

It looks like I might be able to make a criminal injuries claim to cover the treatment, which would be good.

As for what I did, the guy was basically grinding against my girlfriend on the dance floor of a club and she looked very uncomfortable. So I gave the guy a firm push away and he turned around and hit me very hard in the mouth.

Sorry to hear and I hope things work out for your better interest. Something tells me there is a lot more to your story.

But remember that pain is temporary and chicks dig scars.
