"People who smoke cigarettes, they say:
“You don’t know how hard it is to quit smoking.”
Yes, I do. It’s as hard as it is to start flossing." - Mitch Hedberg

The issue is, if you start flossing here and there, then they start recommending every night. If you do that, they recommend after every meal.
Feels like a negative sum game.
Just do a quick tour with a toothpick before brushing at night. Costs almost no time nor effort, yet is a massive improvement.
My dentist sez flossing is on it's way out, everybody should start using these really small interdental toothbrushes anyway.
I can't even get floss between some of my teeth without shredding it how am I supposed to get a toothbrush in there. If floss or a waterpik, which I really should buy, can't do it, I'm out of luck.
