Man, I feel this on a spiritual level. I once tried one of those fancy tongue cleaners from the dollar store—thought I was saving money, but nearly lo...
Right there with you on the “gentle” thing. I used to think if I wasn’t scrubbing like I was trying to remove graffiti from a wall, it wasn’t working....
