We'd like sometimes to sit on the old front porch

and think about days gone by. Yes. People like, oh, it was simpler back then. Was it really? Yeah. Yeah, it was. Okay. It really was. Like just a water bottle. You buy a water bottle. It's a water bottle. Mm-hmm. It's not complex. You just buy a toothbrush. Just a toothbrush? Yeah.

I just looked at what I could buy now.

I was looking at toothbrushes.

The Oral B Genius 8,000 is a high-tech electronic toothbrush featuring Bluetooth connectivity and position detection technology.

It uses your smartphone's camera and a mirror-mounted holder to track brushing coverage

in real time, ensuring no zone is missed.

It features a customizable 360-degree smart ring, capitalized, with 12 LED colors and

six cleaning modes, including tongue cleaning and gum care.

The included smart travel case can charge both the toothbrush handle and a smartphone

simultaneously via USB, blah, blah, blah.
