->''"Never tangle with anything that's got [[TropeNamer more teeth than the entire Osmond family]]."''
-->-- '''Arnold Rimmer''', ''Series/RedDwarf'', "Polymorph".
Monsters with a huge number of teeth.
This is a simple and common trope, playing on a natural fear of toothy predators. There are three common kinds of teeth you will see on a big scary thing: flat, triangular shark-teeth; conical teeth similar to those of crocodiles; or ridiculously pointy needle teeth like a deep-sea fish. The monster's mouth will often be so crammed with teeth that half of them should break off with every bite. The teeth are usually all of the same type. Despite being a common animal trait in real life, human characters often make use of this trope, and when doing so is often used to mark a character with, well, ''monster''-like behavior, especially if it involves or is implied to involve murder in a very predatory sense.
Also see {{Phlegmings}} -- the lines of drool often seen between the teeth. When the teeth are arranged in a ring rather than opposing jawlines, that's a LampreyMouth. ''Beware'' VaginaDentata. Stop by CheshireCatGrin for a less toothy but still creepy variation. Often found in conjunction with ThreateningShark and NeverSmileAtACrocodile, and occasionally followed by PalatePropping.
[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
* Krory the [[OurVampiresAreDifferent quasi-vampire]] Exorcist of ''Manga/DGrayMan'' may look like he has CuteLittleFangs when his mouth is closed (and that only in the manga), but when he moves his lips, the result is a distinctly inhuman array of shark/crocodile-like fangs.
* Grell Sutcliff the {{Shinigami}} from ''BlackButler'' doesn't seem to have a greater than human amount of teeth, but his/her teeth ''are'' all fangs, which isn't the case for the other shinigami or even the demons seen in the series.
* [[http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Tokomon Tokomon]] of ''Anime/DigimonAdventure'', in an unexpected way given it's coming from an otherwise RidiculouslyCuteCritter. Tokomon's teeth are a direct nod to the Digimon virtual pets that the show was based on. All the child Digimon from the virtual pet keychains were adorable little monsters that revealed incongruous amounts of pixelated teeth when they ate or got mad at their owners.
** The {{Tamagotchi}} virtual pets that preceded Digimon did the same thing with their young forms.
* The second form of the [[EnemyWithout berserked defense program]] in ''[[MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's]]'', which had two massive heads filled with massive, pointy teeth.
* ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'' is absolutely full of these. It's no wonder that ''Berserk'''s creator, Kentaro Miura, takes so long to release chapters when he has to draw each and every single tooth on pages full of literally ''dozens'' of creatures.
* Vampires in ''{{Hellsing}}'' (especially the OVA and Manga) generally have teeth like sharks...it is only when Alucard fully activates the Cromwell Initiative and [[spoiler:essentially becomes an ''EldritchAbomination'']] that this trope really starts getting fulfilled. A lot.
** And the HUMANS too. Please see any chapter where [[BadassPreacher Father Anderson]] is [[LargeHam doing what he does best]]. Or when the Major...talks.
* Kamineko in ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'' looks sweet, until the point he rocks the top of his head back to reveal he has [[http://www.svenax.net/files/images/Azumanga_Daioh_01_076_0001_0.jpg dentition that makes bear traps look sick...]]
* Some of the homunculi in ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist''. Gluttony, when in attack mode, [[http://images.wikia.com/fma/images/3/3c/Brotherhood24.jpg reveals a hippopotamus-like mouth with extra rows of teeth inside]], Greed and Sloth have sharklike teeth, and Pride's true form consists entirely of eyes, teeth, and LivingShadow.
* The titular warriors from ''{{Claymore}}'' gain these when they're dangerously close to liberating their powers enough to become demons.
* The Tsuyoshi family in GreatTeacherOnizuka -- those short friendly people with shark teeth.
* The Misago from ''Manga/YokohamaKaidashiKikou'' has lots of sharp carnivorous teeth. She's good and kind-hearted and only uses them to eat fish, but most people freak out after seeing her scary dentition.
* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' Kurama's mouth was set in a permanent snarl revealing a massive number of teeth larger than the titular character. [[spoiler: However, such a trait has faded with Kurama's CharacterDevelopment, and his teeth now resemble what they should-a giant fox's.]] At times, the only thing that can be seen of the demon are two red eyes and gleaming teeth. Finally, it appears to be common for Hidden Mist shinobi to file their teeth to resemble a shark's, though this may be restricted to Seven Swordsmen and their aspirants. Then again, given the [[LittleBitBeastly other sharklike traits]] of some of those characters, it's possible that their teeth are naturally that way.
** [[spoiler: The [[EldritchAbomination Ten-Tail's]] first form is presented with a huge mouth with dozens of spikey, sharp teeth for a murderous GlasgowGrin.]]
* ''{{Psyren}}'': Ash from the W.I.S.E. squad Scourge.
* Holo in ''SpiceAndWolf'' gets these in mid-transformation from human form to a giant wolf. It's pretty disturbing to see them on such a cute face.
* Ryuk from ''Manga/DeathNote'' has these, along with a permanent SlasherSmile.
* Neko Musume of ''Manga/GeGeGeNoKitaro'' may have inspired Kamineko above, because let's be honest, ''cat teeth are not like that''. Yikes.
* Viral from ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'', who is part shark and part feline.
* ''HanakoAndTheTerrorOfAllegory'' gives us the Slit-Mouth Woman. Although she has a fairly normal tooth-to-mouth ratio, she's got [[NightmareFace quite a bit of mouth]].
* Ratman of...well, ''Manga/{{Ratman}}'' does this when he gets angry or excited. Normally, he can function fine with his mouth closed, and it looks just like a helmet. But when he opens it for whatever reason, its enough to give one of his friends recurring nightmares.
* In ''LightNovel/{{Baccano}}'', one of Christopher Shoulder's most distinguishing features is that his mouth is filled with what appear to be shark teeth. Combined with his [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]] and [[AwesomeAnachronisticApparel archaic mode of dress]], most people assume that he's some sort of vampire.
* Hiruma in ''{{Eyeshield 21}}'' and his mouth full of fangs. It's part of his SpikesOfVillainy look.
* Tier Harribel from ''Manga/{{Bleach}}''.
** [[spoiler:Averted, since those teeth were just a part of Harribel's hollow mask. When she uses her [[SuperMode Resurrección]], the mask vanishes and her now visible mouth and teeth are clearly normal.]]
** Well, there's [[http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090314074548/bleach/en/images/b/bc/Di_Roy%27s_Hierro..jpg Di Roy Rinker]], and his square-sawed top row of teeth...
* Lots and lots of flesh rending teeth appear to be the most defining characteristic for the mysterious invading {{Eldritch Abomination}}s in [[http://mangafox.me/manga/hakaijuu/ "Hakaijuu"]]. Special mention goes to the one that not only has numerous [[http://mangafox.me/manga/hakaijuu/v01/c002/45.html teeth-studded mandibles]] but hundreds of three-fingered hands with [[http://mangafox.me/manga/hakaijuu/v01/c001/45.html smaller mouths in each finger tip]] that it uses to strip the flesh from unlucky highschool students.
* Baikinman (and by default, his brothers Aokinman and Akakinman) from ''{{Franchise/Anpanman}}''. [[http://www.rubberslug.com/img_show.aspx?ImageID=279666&X=530&Section=Item Teeth should not begin to look like that.]] His teeth are so prominent that they actually ''disort'' into shapes to form vowels when he speaks! Baikinman's an alien, so there's at least a bit of justification. Females of his species don't have this style of teeth, and two other males of the species (Baikinsennin and Mushibaikinman) have different looking teeth (Baikinsennin's are normal teeth, and Mushibaikinman's are simular to Baikinman's, but he only has five forming his mouth).
* The titular monsters of ''Manga/AttackOnTitan'' are all human-like save for some odd deformities (disproportionate limbs, lack of skin), but more importantly [[http://i40.tinypic.com/24msriw.jpg mouths full of square incisors]].
* Masakaki from ''Anime/CControl'' gets shark teeth whenever he is excited about something evil happening. Appropriate too, since he's a ''loan shark''.
[[folder:Comic Books]]
* Parallax from the ''GreenLantern'' continuity has a few sets of these, forming the shape of the Sinestro Corps symbol with his throat as the hole. It's freakier looking than it sounds. Also a few Sinestro Corpsmen themselves, including Tri-Eye, who has three wide-ass mouths and teeth on the edges of all three faces, and Maash, who has three entire heads piled on top of each other.
* The Corinthian in ''ComicBook/TheSandman''. Though his eye-teeth are usually just straight, smaller copies of the teeth in his mouth, spinoffs and fanart tend to make them pointed. Also Azazel -- a lord of hell who appears as a black void filled with eyes and disembodied teeth.
* Isz, especially black Isz, from ''TheMaxx''.
* Some images of the SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker show his (non-pointy) teeth as being so long, it looks as if the chemical he'd gotten dumped in must've given him ever-growing dentition like a rodent's, as well as weird coloration. This is noticeable in Tim Sale's art (ComicBook/TheLongHalloween and Dark Victory in particular), though certain panels exagerate this more than others. [[http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel_dc/images/4/46/Tim_Sale_Joker_01.jpg Here's a noticeable example.]]
* The alien symbiotes from ''{{Spider-Man}}''. Spidey himself didn't get this effect when he was wearing the black suit, but Venom, Carnage and basically anyone else "wearing" a symbiote is going to develop these.
** Interesting note: ComicBook/{{Venom}} didn't start out with this either. Todd [=McFarlane=] originally drew him with a mouth that was toothy, but mostly human-looking (at least as much as the Joker's). Then Erik Larsen, who hated the character, was assigned to draw him, and started giving him a drooling monster mouth and an OverlyLongTongue, supposedly to avoid getting bored.
** Most "good" symbiotes don't have the mouth. If they develop one, [[OhCrap run]].
* In ''The Orc's Treasure,'' by Kevin J Anderson, all Orcs are distinguished by the impossible overabundance of pointy teeth. Many of them have teeth protruding through parts of their lips or cheeks.
* ''ComicBook/TheDarkness''
* Creator/PhilFoglio is fond of this trope in his artwork.
** In the ''ComicBook/MythAdventures'' comics he depicts Aahz this way. Even in the novels, Aahz is described more than once as ''dropping'' his smile when he wants to put people at ease.
** ''XXXenophile'' is good for teeth. And [[CuteMonsterGirl Cute Monster Girls]].
** The grins the Jägermonsters (and occasionally some of the Sparks) have in ''Webcomic/GirlGenius''
* Elves from ''ComicBook/{{Amulet}}''. When their mouth is closed it's no big deal, but when they open it to eat something, ''brrrrr!''
* Any time RobLiefeld draws someone grimacing, [[http://www.progressiveboink.com/2012/4/21/2960757/robliefeld3 as seen here:]] "How many teeth are in a mouth? Like a billion, right? Ill just draw a billion, all the same size and shape."
** In the same article, example 27, Liefeld makes the opposite, but equally weird mistake: He somehow draws the Red Skull, a villain whose entire motif is that his head ''is a human skull'', with only 17 teeth in the entire mouth, all of them incisors.
* Max of SamAndMax stands out from other fictional rabbits by way of his pointy teeth.
* Evil Ernie
* An unusual example: FrankMiller in his more recent projects such as ''SinCity'' and ''Holy Terror'' has characters being punched in the jaw, resulting in losing copious numbers of teeth. Which evidently grow back almost instantly; if someone gets punched more than once, he'll lose more teeth than he had in his mouth originally.
* The Dominators, a humanoid alien race from DCComics, are distinguished by an abundance of long, sharp teeth.
[[folder:Films -- Animated]]
* The anglerfish in ''WesternAnimation/FindingNemo''. Also the sharks, although they're trying to [[CarnivoreConfusion go vegan]].
* The Cheshire Cat from ''Disney/AliceInWonderland'' was originally going to have these, but they were later changed.
* The robotic shark from ''Film/JamesAndTheGiantPeach''.
[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
* The titular Xenomorphs from the ''Franchise/{{Alien}}'' series had enough teeth to outfit a ''second, smaller mouth''. Their appearance was all the more nightmarish for having a variety of different teeth, [[UncannyValley looking almost like a fanged human.]]
* In ''Film/{{Prometheus}}'' [[spoiler:the Deacon that bursts out of the Engineer's chest at the end]] has a jaw very much like a Goblin Shark's.
* The Sarlaac in ''StarWars''
* The Kraken in ''PiratesOfTheCaribbean''.
* The titular creatures in ''Film/TheDeadlySpawn'' have so many teeth that rows of them are still outside the mouth when it is closed.
* The vampires in ''Film/FrightNight'' tend to have this, especially during the third part of their metamorphosis.
* The Reapers from ''Film/BladeII'' don't necessarily have ''more'' teeth than a human being, but their odd placement sure makes it look that way.
* ''Vamp'' takes it [[UpToEleven to another level]].
* Played with in ''Film/X2XMenUnited'', whose version of Nightcrawler had a mouthful of fangs that were something between humanlike and sharklike, rather than merely pointed eyeteeth as in the comics. Fortunately Nighty's a pretty cool guy [[spoiler:when he's not under mind control]].
* In the ''{{Coneheads}}'' movie, Beldar demonstrated how many teeth coneheads have when he went to the dentist to get them capped... ''all four rows of them''. And he can open his mouth ''reeeeeeally'' wide.
* The titular creatures in ''{{Critters}}'' are [[http://www.legendsofhorror.org/images/critters/critters.jpg giant furballs with teeth]].
* Fizzgig from ''Film/TheDarkCrystal'' is a little furball who looks innocent until he opens his mouth, and then he becomes mostly teeth.
* Shark teeth aplenty in the monsters from ''Film/{{Feast}}''. [[spoiler: Particularly at the end of the first movie, where you can actually see how many of them Heroine #2 smashes out with a rifle butt.]]
* One of the ''V. rex'' dinosaurs in Peter Jackson's ''Film/KingKong'' remake had a distorted upper jaw that made room for still more gigantic teeth, probably due to some old facial injury.
* John Carpenter's ''Film/{{The Thing|1982}}''. Only sometimes, since it's a consumate shapeshifter, so it only piled on the teeth when it needed to attack someone.
* The title vampire character ''CountYorga'', though oddly when he bites his victims he only leaves the usual tiny pinprick bites.
* "Jeff", the 600 foot alien worm from ''MenInBlackII'' who lives in New York's subway stations and makes his first appearance by munching on one of the subway trains.
** Boris the Animal in ''MenInBlackIII''.
* The [[http://materialisticboy.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/alice-in-wonderland-trailer.jpg Cheshire Cat]] from Creator/TimBurton's ''Film/AliceInWonderland''.
** The Bandersnatch from the same movie.
* The Sugarplum Fairy in ''Film/TheCabinInTheWoods''. Combines with NestedMouths.
* The aliens in ''Film/AttackTheBlock''.
* In ''Film/DeepRising'' the creatures have to open wide for this to be really noticeable, but when they do it's quite scary. [[spoiler:The primary mouth is also completely littered with teeth.]]
* The Lubb-Lubbs in ''Film/MomAndDadSaveTheWorld'' are cute, mushroom-like creatures who turn out to have a huge mouth filled with ''nasty pointy teeth''... and another mouth, also filled with ''nasty pointy teeth''.
* Boomer the hammerhead shark from ''Literature/WhosAfraidOfBoomer''.
* {{Sandworm}}s from ''Literature/{{Dune}}''
* The Chtorran worms in David Garrold's ''Literature/TheWarAgainstTheChtorr'' novels may have been a homage to the sandworms of ''Dune''.
* Said word-for-word in the first ''Literature/CalLeandros'' book, though Cal is describing Robin, who, though nonhuman, has the normal amount of teeth.
* WilliamSleator's novel ''Literature/{{Singularity}}'' had a creature coming through a PortalPool from another universe. It was visible from this universe long before it arrived, and the only part of it that was visible was its huge mouthful of teeth. The main character, in fact, spent a whole year waiting for the creature to arrive, knowing only its toothy appearance.
* The titular ClockRoaches in Stephen King's ''TheLangoliers''. The TV version depicted them ([[SpecialEffectsFailure poorly]]) with three rows of alternately rotating teeth, like a cross between an excavation drill and PacMan.
* ''Literature/RiftersTrilogy'' contains deep-sea fish like this, but their teeth are so brittle that when one tries to bite a person's arm off, the teeth shatter.
* Agrajag in ''Literature/LifeTheUniverseAndEverything'' has a patchwork body and a vast array of teeth. {{Lampshade}}d, in that Agrajag's excessive and deliberately unpleasant teeth don't all quite fit nicely into his mouth, resulting in them lacerating his lips and mouth. There are some sticky black plasters covering the nastier wounds.
* The Witches in the children's series 'TheDoomspellTrilogy' have four jaws each full of nasty sharp pointy teeth. (For an artist's impression, see the example in the New Media category.) They were also full of symbiotic spiders.
* ''S. Petersen's Field Guide to Cthulhu Monsters'' is packed with teeth. Big, nasty teeth! Let's see who's the champ in the dental department, shall we?
** The byakhee has back-pointing narrow fangs like a snake's, and plenty of 'em.
** The Deep One's teeth are crocodile-like, extra-sharp, and appear to come in multiple rows.
** The dhole's teeth are rooted in several extensible jaw-like structures, and are about as big as the human silhouette on the size-comparison diagram. The ''teeth'', not the jaw-like structures.
** The flying polyp has two mouths of crocodile-type teeth. At least, two mouths visible in the picture. The one you encounter may have more.
** The formless spawn has several rows of oversized teeth, which best resemble human incisors. Which is kinda creepy in itself.
** The Hound of Tindalos has a lot of crocodilish teeth, but should probably be disqualified because it's the tongue you really have to worry about.
** The Servitor of the Outer Gods' mouth would look good on a deep-sea angler.
** ''Bzzzt!'' Sorry, Mr. Shoggoth, you should've submitted a pic where you had lots of ''teeth'', not lots of eyes. Better send that one in to a different contest.
** Shub-Niggurath has a half-dozen mouths of crocodile teeth showing, presumably with more on the back. If she has a back. Maybe this ''is'' her back in the pic. Who can tell?
** Ghouls, ghasts, hunting horrors, shantaks and Ithaqua get consolation prizes. Not bad teeth, guys, but not nearly enough to hold your own against such tough competitors.
** Lots of other oogey-boogeys in that book, but whatever the heck they've got, it sure ain't teeth.
** And the winner is ... the Dhole! Not least because it's probably eaten most of the other contestants by now.
* Phil Foglio's covers for the Donning-Starblaze illustrated editions of the ''Literature/MythAdventures'' books depict Aahz this way. Even in the novels, Aahz is described more than once as ''dropping'' his smile when he wants to put people at ease.
* The Taxxons from ''Literature/{{Animorphs}}'' have, among other nasty features, a LampreyMouth.
* In ''Discworld/GoingPostal'' one of the things the post office sign instructs you not to ask about are "Huje Green Things With Teeth," possibly a NoodleIncident as none ever actually show up here. Later, Anghammarad, a twenty-thousand-year-old golem, remembers that in his day it was "Do Not Ask Us About Saber-Tooth Tigers, Tar Pits, Huge Green Things With Teeth, Or The Goddess Czol." When asked "you had huge green things with teeth back then?" he answers "Bigger. Greener. More Teeth."
* When Magicians (read: Demon Summoners) in David Eddings' ''{{Belgariad}}'' and ''{{Malloreon}}'' summon their demons, they try to outdo each other by making their demons look as menacing as possible. One common area of embellishment is in the mouth, where they try to cram as many teeth as possible inside. It should also be noted that these imaginary forms are also the way they keep demons under control. A demon in his (uncontrollable) true form is terrifying in itself, but for other reasons.
[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
* The Polymorph in ''Series/RedDwarf'', a spoof of the [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Xenomorphs]]. The Polymorph, a shapeshifting EmotionEater, assumed the form of a monster from one of Lister's nightmares, which Rimmer fittingly describes as an "8-foot, armor-plated, alien killing machine".
* The ''{{Beetleborgs}}'' episode Buggin Out featured a gnat-like monster named Kombat Gnat who had several teeth like this and the power to shrink. This particular episode was a satire of David Cronenberg's remake of ''The Fly''. Flabber brings a drawing of a teleportation device to life and he tests it out. Kombat Gnat flies into the machine and their dna gets merged. This causes Flabber to slowly turn into Kombat Gnat -- starting out with cute little vampiric fangs, then developing antennae and a row of razor sharp teeth like this.
* ''Series/DoctorWho''
** Prisoner Zero had a mouth like a [[http://ocean.nationalgeographic.com/ocean/photos/deep-sea-creatures/#/deep-sea09-viper-fish_18169_600x450.jpg viper fish]] in its natural form. And these teeth are sometimes visible in its human mouths.
** The vampires in "Vampires in Venice".
** The new-series model of Cybermats. Yet they're adorable.
* TheLangoliers (again).
* The Leviathans on ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'', whenever they [[GameFace reveal their "true" face]]. Essentially their entire head is occupied by mouth.
* An interstitial on MTV2 featured a hoard of superhero parodies, including Too Many Teeth Man, whose power is obvious.
* An episode of ''Series/TheGreatestAmericanHero'' featured a mystical black void guarded by a Beast that was nothing but a giant champing set of teeth.
[[folder:Myths & Religion]]
* Manticores. Those things have ''three rows'' of metal teeth. Fortunately they don't exist. [[ParanoiaFuel What was that sound?]]
* In traditional Eastern European Vampire folklore, vampires tend to have double rows of razor-sharp, strong-as-iron teeth used for chewing through wood, soil, flesh, bone, and organs. Some just have hollow, sharp tongues, and few don't have anything sharp in their mouths, and take blood magically without even physically puncturing the victim's body.
* Some versions of the Japanese urban legend the Kuchisake-Onna have her GlasgowGrin full of lots and lots of sharp, pointy teeth.
[[folder:New Media]]
* Fuel your nightmares with this [[http://pics.livejournal.com/wholesomedick/pic/0000dskg picture]]. (The teeth are actually from [[http://www.soularchive.jp/SC3/img/wp/aby1024.jpg Abyss]] of [[SoulSeries Soul Calibur III]].)
* [[http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o247/Arcalane/toothy-rocks.jpg These toothy fellas]] are terrifying for some and [[UglyCute adorable]] for others.
* Red from ''Roleplay/RubyQuest'' looks quite normal... until he opens his mouth to laugh, and just keeps opening it ''wider'' and ''wider''...
* [[http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/60436 Smile.dog's]] [[SlasherSmile smile]] has this many teeth.
* In ''VideoGame/PinballDreams 2'', the robots in "Revenge of the Robot Warriors" all have this
[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
* ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}''
** The Tyranids, partly inspired by the Xenomorphs from ''Franchise/{{Alien}}'', have ridiculous numbers of teeth, somewhere between the dinosaur type and the needle type.
** Tyranid Rippers seem to be composed of ''nothing but teeth''. The basically unusable nature of the teeth is justified because they ''are'' nothing but weapons - Tyranid battle organisms do not have digestive systems, and are expected to simply throw themselves into pits of digestive juices after the battle. Assuming they survive, of course.
** Then you have the Squigs of ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}}'' Fantasy (as well as 40k, though far less prominent). Ironically, Squigs are not only edible themselves, but described as delicious -- moist and flavorsome, combining the taste of smoked ham with the lightness of young chicken. One breed of Squig is actually known as the "facebiter/face-eater squig". A common orc contest of toughness and bravery has the Orcs try to eat a live squig, without using their hands, before it eats them. According to some early 40k sources, the Squigs are actually Tyranids created with Ork base genetic material; the Orks found the Squigs and adopted them into their culture sensing their inherent "Orky" nature. This was forgotten, though it may serve as the ultimate foundation for the Biovores and their rumored nature as Ork gene-infused Tyranids.
** Then there are the Orcs/Orks, who in either setting use "teef" as money. Teef are acquired by either using your own, or ripping out someone else's. Don't worry, they grow back. In the 40k fluff, there are various "tribes" of Orks that have different genetic quirks (usable in game through several fan expansions). One of them is the Bad Moonz, who not only have more teeth than average but also regrow them at an increased rate. As such, they're they richest Orks around and always have the most snazz.
** Chaos' LegionsOfHell just wouldn't be proper daemons if some of them didn't have more teeth than a dentition textbook, usually sticking out at odd and possibly noneuclidean angles.
* ''MagicTheGathering'' has an entire creature type of toothy monsters called Atogs. [[http://ww2.wizards.com/gatherer/CardDetails.aspx?&id=31825 Here's one example]].
** [[http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=146010 Not that they're the only creatures that qualify.]]
* ''DungeonsAndDragons''
** The supplement ''Tome of Magic'' contains the Tooth Beast: essentially a bear literally coated in teeth. Rather than skin, it has gums. [[http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/ToMagic_Gallery/96076.jpg See it here.]] It has teeth for ''eyes'', and is wrong.
** [[http://www.wizards.com/dnd/images/ToMagic_Gallery/96039.jpg Dahlver-Nar's Manifestation]]. Again, gums for skin and teeth everywhere... ''except'' the mouth.
** The Gibbering Mouther is basically an ooze made out of goo, eyeballs, and mouths with sharp teeth. Lots and lots and lots of teeth.
** And its big brother the Squamous Spewer, which is made of ''dragon'' eyes and teeth.
** Beholders: look at those teeth! http://www.giantbomb.com/dungeons-dragons/62-167/
** ''Dungeons and Dragons: Book of Vile Darkness'' - The Whirlwind of Teeth. The caster can create an opaque area of swirling energy taking the form of roaring, screeching mouths full of teeth
** The 3.5 Edition ''Monster Manual IV'' introduces the Fang Golem, a construct made entirely from teeth and fangs of various animals. It resembles a four-legged beast covered in ivory spikes, with a whirling tunnel of pointy death for a mouth.
** Lunar dragons in ''DragonMech'' sport enormous toothy maws.
* The Legion of Everblight from ''Hordes'' in the ''IronKingdoms'' setting. It has warbeasts with no eyes, ears or noses. Just mouths full of large, sharp teeth.
* One adventure for TabletopGame/{{Paranoia}} had a table of descriptions for the various robots. For the Doberbot, the entry first lists the weapon, 16" long teeth, then under description: "You don't know, all you see are the teeth."
** Was a possible ShoutOut to [[WesternAnimation/HeavyMetal the monster in the Den segment of Heavy Metal.]]
* In the TabletopGame/ScarredLands, one of the fallen titans was Gaurak the Glutton - an obese and monstrously ravenous deity who was said to have devoured everything on the once verdant moon. After his defeat by the titan's children, the gods, every one of his hundreds of teeth were pulled out and thrown across the destroyed world, taking on the form of mountains, obelisks, and trees which currently taint the surrounding land.
* Gadunka from ''Franchise/{{Bionicle}}''.
[[folder:Video Games]]
* ''VideoGame/TimeSplitters'': "Shoot anything with teeth bigger than its face!"
* Pretty much every monster in the Amiga/Atari/C64/MS-DOS game ''VideoGame/WeirdDreams'' had lots and lots of very large teeth. According to TheOtherWiki, the author had a dental phobia.
* As if the entire concept of ''{{X-Com}}'''s [[DemonicSpiders Chryssalids]] aren't nightmarish enough, someone decided to give their research entry images permanent, toothy smiles.
* Decarabia from ''CastlevaniaDawnOfSorrow''. Imagine a starfish's hungry mouth staring straight at you. Imagine that mouth lined with razor-sharp teeth. Now, imagine said starfish hurtling at you at approximately 80 MPH.
* The Rifle Demons in the ''Franchise/{{Disgaea}}'' series have mouths full of large, pointy, and perpetually visible teeth. They tend to get a lot of emphasis in [[SuperMovePortraitAttack their team attack portraits]].
* Baraka from ''VideoGame/MortalKombat2'' has a mouth full of pointy teeth, as do other Tarkatan. His teeth in his first appearance were acryllic nails glued to a cheap Nosferatu mask.
** From the [[MortalKombat same series]], Mileena, a female ninja with a bombshell body [[{{Butterface}} ruined by a mouth with more teeth than a school of piranha.]] This is because she's a deformed clone of Kitana fused with Tarkatan essence.
* The Protopets from ''RatchetAndClankGoingCommando''. Give a [[Franchise/StarTrek tribble]] the jaws and personality of a Great White Shark, and you've got a pretty close approximation.
* One of two [[TheFaceless discernible facial features]] of Taokaka in ''VideoGame/{{Blazblue}}'' is a mouth full of lots of very sharp, pointy teeth.
* A few mutants in ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'', particularly in the later stages of G-virus infection.
* The Gaets in ''VideoGame/TalesOfLegendia'' are easily among the toothiest monsters in the ''TalesSeries'', all of their various species having a huge mouthful of large, perpetually visible teeth of either the shark-like triangular or pointy needle variety.
* [[http://www.wowwiki.com/File:Yoggsaron.jpg Yogg-Saron]], one of the Old Gods from ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft''.
* Just in case you didn't figure out Chancellor Cole was an EvilChancellor before then in ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSpiritTracks'', the last you see of him before he explicitly outs himself as one is him flashing an evil grin full of pointed, shark-like teeth.
* The [[EldritchAbomination Thresher Maws]] in ''Franchise/MassEffect'' are described in the Codex as "abominations of tentacles and teeth." They're even ''scarier''.
** The yahg, who are clearly not a species to mess with despite only appearing twice (counting [=DLC=]). The first one you meet is [[spoiler: the Shadow Broker.]] Shepard calls attention to this in the third game.
** Turians - somewhat-reptilian humanoids with exoskeletons and bony spikes sticking out of their bodies - are an unusual generally-benevolent example. (Probably scared the bejeezus out of the poor humans who first encountered them in the [[WeComeInPeaceShootToKill First Contact War]], though.)
* Fuzzles from ''OddWorld''. They start out looking tiny cute little furballs, until they go into attack mode where they become rabid and reveal their mouth filled to the brim with razor sharp teeth.
* The [[EldritchAbomination Dragon God]] from ''DemonsSouls'' [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=dnEzkbdTa0I#t=129s needs a second mouth to contain all his teeth.]]
** ''DarkSouls'', its SpiritualSuccessor, gives us this [[http://i54.tinypic.com/21y15w.jpg lovely beast]], which seems to be less "Monster with lots of teeth" and more "Teeth with a hint of monster." It's called "the Gaping Dragon" and it's basically a ''bona fide'' dragon whose entire upper torso has been transformed into a gigantic mouth, so consuming is its HorrorHunger.
* The Malboros from the ''FinalFantasy'' series are giant plants with this many teeth, [[ExtraEyes almost as many eyes]], and CombatTentacles. Neither of which is their true power that makes them deadly; the fact that they exhale choking, poisonous gas (which may or may not be a way nastier, weaponized form of tobacco smoke) with their signature Bad Breath attack is.
* The Garmraid in ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsMX'' can attach it's shoulder guards to it's fists, then tossing a ''RocketPunch'' with teeth.
** One upped by [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Alfimi's Persoenlichkeit]] in ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration 2nd Original Generation.]]'' [[http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/441/hownice.jpg/ It is not pretty to see.]]
** The Shiseiten, the Epilogue Boss from ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ Third Super Robot Wars: Jigoku-Hen]]'', is a six-mouthed skeletal beast with tons of sharp fangs.
* The Ultimate Chimera in VideoGame/{{Mother 3}} is a devilish-looking beast that's practically a walking set of huge, pointed teeth, it having a massive maw that runs almost the length of its whole body. One chomp from it is enough to do the party in immediately, without even giving them a chance to battle it proper.
* Night Of Wallachia from ''VideoGame/MeltyBlood'' has a lot of extremely sharp teeth.
* The Hebby Repp and Sudo Neku dream eaters in ''VideoGame/KingdomHearts3D'' have a mouthful of pointy triangular teeth, kept in a constant smile, though it's purely for cuteness. The Tyranto Rex, on the other hand, has a mouthful of perpetually visible fang-like teeth that make it look more than slightly intimidating.
* True Ogre from the ''{{Tekken}}'' series has a couple of fangs on his ''lips'', along with the set of fangs in his mouth, which are attached to gross, elongated gums. It's as if he has a mouth ''within'' a mouth.
* Demitri Maximoff from ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}'' has lots of sharp teeth, as prominently shown in the ''Night Warriors'' OVA.
* [[MadDoctor The Medic]] from ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' has a pretty intimidating grin.
* The Nosalis mutants in ''VideoGame/MetroLastLight'', redesigned from the first game, now have enormous mouths that dominate their whole faces and are filled to the brim with huge fangs. Their [[EyelessFace lack of visible eyes]] serves to further highlight their teeth.
[[folder:Visual Novels]]
* The dragon in ''VisualNovel/DraKoi'' grows masses of fangs when she launches a beam attack from her human form.
* ''Webcomic/GirlGenius''
** The Jägermonsters have [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20080512 far]] [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20031103 too]] [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20080618 many]] long, sharp teeth to fit into their (sometimes) human-sized mouths.
** Krosp has teeth more suited to a shark than a cat.
** Consider the [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20050404 horse monster beastie]]. ''[[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20050413 Argh!]]''
* ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt''
** The [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=349 yellow salamander]] from Chapter 16 had double rows of sharp fangs. Nightmare fuel, literally: [[spoiler:it appeared in a character's nightmare, and it symbolized the house fire that ''killed his entire family''.]]
** Coyote's etherial form is a mishmash of teeth, eyes and night sky.
** Zimmy; she's nominally human, but her teeth resemble a shark more than a person.
** Ominous connotations are averted by the friendliest [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=987 badger spirit]] you'll ever meet.
* Florence Ambrose of ''Webcomic/{{Freefall}}'' has these, but she struggles to keep them hidden, as long as she remembers, since humans tend to react badly to them. Example: [[http://freefall.purrsia.com/ff1700/fc01696.htm Snap!]]
* ''LookingForGroup'' has a [[http://www.lfgcomic.com/page/389 subterranean worm]] that has this in spades.
* Orcs in ''DominicDeegan'' have tusks and fanged maws, which becomes more obvious when they are pissed. Unusually, orcs are vegetarians, and the hard, pointed teeth are for cracking open the extremely tough root vegetables of their homeland.
* The Mihrrgoots from ''{{Spacetrawler}}'' have very wide mouths completely filled with sharp teeth.
* Werewolves in Webcomic/BloodyUrban have these, even in human form.
* Most [[OurTrollsAreDifferent Trolls]] in ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' have sharp and pointy teeth, but Feferi, having the highest blood type, [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=004322 can be down right terrifying]] [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005227 When she shows all of them]], and, even though she's one of the [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething nicest]] [[GenkiGirl trolls]].
** There's also [[HandicappedBadass Terezi]] [[AmoralAttorney Pyrope]], who isn't so much unusual but stands out because she's almost ''always'' seen [[TheHyena grinning or cackling]] with her many rows of shark-like teeth on display.
** The [[EldritchAbomination Gods of the Furthest Ring]] are prone to this
** [[http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=008688 Gamzee]], after being freed from mindcontrol to find that he's been turned into a cutting board.
* Zerglings in ''NerfNow'' are normally portrayed as adorable, but they're shown as having lots and lots of sharp teeth whenever they stare down something they're planning to fight with ([[http://www.nerfnow.com/comic/616 or play-fight with]].)
[[folder:Web Original]]
* Website/DeviantArt: [[http://browse.deviantart.com/?order=9&q=two+heads&offset=48#/d3fynx6 Some Cherubs]]
[[folder:Western Animation]]
* The aptly-named villain Megabyte from ''ReBoot''. [[http://starman-imaging.com/reboot/images111/megafrme1094a.jpg Hexadecimal, too.]]
* Ripjaws in ''WesternAnimation/{{Ben 10}}''.
* The Plutarkians from ''BikerMiceFromMars'' have teeth like this.
* ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' once had a cutaway gag about this trope, featuring the Osmond family with buck teeth.
* A majority of monsters from ''CourageTheCowardlyDog'', notably the weremole and the giant alien worm from the episode "Tulip's worm". Even Courage ''himself,'' especially in the theme song.
* Every single monster from ''Mega Babies''.
* The bulldog from the classic Creator/TexAvery ''ChillyWilly'' cartoon "The Legend of Rockabye Point".
* ''{{Chowder}}'', in an episode of the TV series, in a horror moment that would make {{Flapjack}} proud.
* One of ''[[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Sylvester the Cat]]'' shorts had him try to catch fish [[TooDumbToLive in piranha aquarium]]. After he gets out, he quips "nah, they're just skin and teeth", and the fish give him a CheshireCatGrin.
* The Joker in all his cartoon incarnations (''WesternAnimation/TheBatman'', ''JusticeLeague'', ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'' and ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''), so much so that when MarkHamill auditioned for the part in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'', he commented in a Making Of video that the Joker seemed to be "all teeth".
* [[Anime/TransformersRobotsInDisguise Sky-byte's]] ''TransformersAnimated'' [[http://tfwiki.net/w2/images2/4/47/Sky_Byte_by_BillForster.jpg version]], as seen in the ''Transformers Animated Allspark Almanac''. Terrified yet?
** The different version of him shown in ''Decepti-Con Job'' is far less horiffying.
* ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' brings us the Scraplets. Two feet tall... with mouths that make up about a third of that height. They make a sound like a chainsaw revving when they open their jaws. According to Bulkhead, they bite their way into a mechanoid and then eat them alive from the inside out.
* As it turns out, ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'''s Earl of Lemongrab has [[http://images.wikia.com/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/1/1f/Teeth_oh_god_why.jpg an unhingable jaw full of these]]. As if he wasn't disturbing enough already.
** The [[IneffectualSympatheticVillain Ice King]] has these too, serving as [[spoiler:a physical manifestation of his becoming a monster.]]
* One word: [[SpongeBobSquarePants OVER]][[MemeticMutation TIME?!?!]]
[[folder:Real Life]]
* The actual Osmond family is one tooth short of qualifying for this trope and a paradox at the same time.
* A medical condition called "hyperdontia" results in extra teeth in humans.
* Only some animals have a single tooth type like the majority of toothy fictional creatures: sharks are one example, with rows and rows of triangular teeth.
* [[ThreateningShark Sharks]]. Not only do they have a complete set of choppers, but they have multiple replacement sets growing right behind the first set. This is because when you eat like a shark, you go through teeth ''fast''. Their skin is actually made of millions of microscopic teeth called "dermal denticles", each one a tiny version of the ones in their mouths. Shark skin can be used as sandpaper. Evolutionarily speaking teeth, scales, feathers, hair, and bone[[labelnote:*]]which is odd, since shark skeletons aren't made of bone, just cartilage[[/labelnote]] are all variants of the same process.\\
Special mention goes to the extinct "shark" ([[http://phenomena.nationalgeographic.com/2013/02/26/buzzsaw-jaw-helicoprion-was-a-freaky-ratfish/ now appearently revealed to be a ratfish]], but still closely related enough) ''Helicoprion'' which did not lose the teeth in its lower jaw, instead keeping all of them in a deadly whorl of teeth, though appearently most of said teeth were hidden in the jaw, [[BodyHorror like an internal chainsaw]]. Let's also give it up for ''C. Megalodon''. Imagine a large Great White Shark. Now triple its size. [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c5/Megalodon_jaws.jpg Or just look at this photo.]]
* Crocodiles and alligators. Their teeth are not designed for cutting or grinding but are designed for grabbing and holding. So they're shaped more like dull rail road spikes that are driven into your limbs so they can rip chunks off of you when they spin their bodies. And, like sharks (see above) and dinosaurs (see below), the teeth are designed to fall out and be replaced easily.
* Piranhas.
* ''Most'' kinds of bony fishes, especially the predatory ones, have teeth on their tongues, in their throat, and hanging from the roofs of their mouths, not just along the jawline.
* Several predatory dinosaurs, as well as some herbivores who had ''several thousand'' teeth in their mouths. Dental battery ''indeed.'' Say hello to [[http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2001/01/dinostory_2001-01-29.html Masiakasaurus.]]
** Not to mention ''Pelecanimimus'', which, in contrast to its later, toothless relatives, had ''220 teeth''.
* While TyrannosaurusRex might not've had a jaw ''that'' freaky, the tooth size more than makes up for it. Including the part firmly rooted inside a ''skull designed for crushing bone'', which had possibly the greatest bite force of anything on the continent at that time, the Rex's teeth could be a foot long.
** And it had ''50'' of them.
* Angler Fish, the evil [[LightIsNotGood bastards.]] In fact just about every other abyssal fish (except for pelican eels) has enormous needle-like teeth too. Teeth like this are very bad for biting and chewing, but are excellent at skewering and thus trapping a fish on the first bite. [[labelnote:*]]Now pass that BrainBleach.[[/labelnote]]
** One species, ''Neoceratias spinifer'', whom Tim Flannery nicknamed [[MeaningfulName the "Pincushion Sea Devil"]], has lost her glowing lure probably because her teeth glow in the dark.
** According to ''[[BluePlanet Blue Planet: Seas of Life]]'', another deep-water fish called the [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast fang]][[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment tooth]] has the biggest teeth ''in the entire animal kingdom'' in relation to its body. Its mouth is always at least partway open because its mouth is of insufficient size to contain them closed.
* Lampreys have a sucker that is full of sharp teeth. And they use it to latch on to a fish, so they can suck on its blood, until said fish dies.
* Moray eels have a second "Pharyngeal jaw" that is essentially a real-life [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Xenomorph]] inner mouth. [[http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2007/09/06/moray_jaws.gif]].
* While it's not the same structurally, the extinct lobopod [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opabinia ''Opabinia regalis'']] has a mouth "under its chin" - and a tubular proboscis ''thing'' tipped with claws that extends from the front of its head and looks an awful lot like a pair of jaws on a trunk.
* Goblin Shark also have a Xenomorph jaw that extends out to grab hold of prey. They seem UglyCute and harmless, with their huge duck-billed nose, until -- ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eh_HUIJkRzU oh the horror!]]'' Mostly found in the waters of [[GiantEnemyCrab ancient Japan]].
** Just in case you were wondering, that's ''not'' a joke. They're found in the waters of Japan and although they aren't very common in the modern day, it's believed they were once more numerous.
*** During the Age of Dinosaurs they were.
* Tapeworms use their "[[http://curezone.com/ig/i.asp?i=1359 hooks]]" to grasp the intestines of potential hosts.
* Opossums have more teeth than any other land mammal; 50 teeth in something that size [[http://www.aaanimalcontrol.com/gallery/opossum021.jpg is really saying something]].
* The RealLife kings of the trope though, are snails, who have several ''thousand'' [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radula pairs of teeth]]. Terrifying, no?
* For some of the biggest non-tusk teeth in the world, see [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Livyatan_melvillei Livyatan melvillei]] -- a whale with a mouthful of [[http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2010/6/30/1277901299026/Artists-impression-of-gia-002.jpg very big teeth]]
* The humble [[EverythingIsBetterWithPenguins penguin]], of all things, is more or less [[http://www.cracked.com/article_19871_the-7-most-terrifying-mouths-in-nature_p2.html a waddling Sarlacc pit]].
* The Bornean clouded leopard, while it has the same ''number'' of teeth as other cats, has the largest canines in proportion to its body size of any extant predatory mammal.
--> The Osmond family have about 224 teeth. Or 32 teeth per member.

@jtdouglas Thank you! I'll have at them!
One thing I have learned already thanks to this thread and donated maps is I have to take scale into account depending on individual maps! Using the tokens from devinnight's free packs (link) , it's a matter of including the scale factor in the database info for the particular map. Learning lots!
Thanks again for helping me out!!

Just 10 Lbs: Easy Steps to Weighing What You Want (Finally)by Brad Lamm
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In Just 10 LBS, Lamm outlines ten easy steps to help listeners heal their relationship with themselves and thus change their relationship with food, breaking destructive cycles of disordered and unhealthy eating. Covering everything from body image to restrictive beliefs to developing a quiet, focusing daily practice, Lamm discusses all aspects of the emotional and self-esteem issues surrounding weight and food. And he puts them together into a 10-step program that begins with identifying your eating style—emotional eater, pleasure eater, energy eater, external eater, or critical eater—and ends with a discussion on the importance of "paying it forward," or giving back the gifts you've gotten. Also included is an action-oriented 30-day plan to help readers get a jump start on their weight-loss efforts.
The effective, easy-to-follow steps in Just 10 LBS will help listeners reclaim their power over food; open emotional blockages that clutter their lives; and create a lifestyle that emphasizes the mind, body, emotions, relationships, and spirit.
About the Author

Pumpkins? They're not even head-shaped. No wonder they look so odd when we carve out those faces! There are some who say the whole of Hallowe'en is a conspiracy engineered by the fruit and vegetable marketing board, designed to ensure healthy sales for farmers. Meanwhile, those of us who wish to stare at shadows in the half light can always see scary images if we let our imaginations run riot. Don't let a false, fearful projection spoil a weekend that otherwise looks set to bring you much joy.
When we dress up as ghosts and ghouls, do we adopt their personas? Are Hallowe'en zombies bereft of their own free will? Can those witches' wands cast real spells? We find it easier to display particular mannerisms when we wear appropriate outfits. Suits, for example, help us convey authority. Sparkly accessories make us feel more glamorous. But this weekend, you need not adjust your wardrobe if you want to convincingly portray a certain role. You just have to believe in what you're saying and doing!
If you were a vampire, where might you be naturally inclined to seek employment? Perhaps, if you couldn't be bothered to amass the necessary qualifications to be a neck and throat surgeon, you might try for the post of porter at a blood bank? Perhaps you wouldn't need to. Maybe you'd be of independent means due to an inheritance from your wealthy Transylvanian ancestors, This may be Hallowe'en but it remains inappropriate, this weekend, to read layers of dark intent into innocent situations and actions.
It is no longer appropriate or acceptable to disrespect spectres. The official organisation of disembodied spirits is petitioning the Court of Inhuman Rights, demanding full recognition of its freedom to haunt public buildings, acceptance of the Poltergeist's code of Practice plus an end to prejudicial exorcisms. Or maybe not. This is Hallowe'en after all. This weekend though, you may care to remember that no matter who you ask, the most you're likely to get is as much as someone else believes themselves capable of giving!
What was once a strict social order has loosened up. Goblins can no longer expect deference from pixies. Neither is required to kneel in the presence of Ogres. Giants, once trained to anticipate preferential treatment from the rest of fairyland, now find themselves marginalised. Why should 'big' be automatically 'better', especially when we consider how their large feet also leave a large carbon footprint? OK. Enough Hallowe'en musings. Just don't assume anyone or anything is 'too good' for you this weekend.
Remember the Adams Family? How about the Munsters? We could all relate to these fictional dynasties because they reminded us of our own families. We may not have uncles who could illuminate light bulbs with their mouths or broomstick riding aunts but did we not have relatives who were similarly weird in their own way? Even once the costumes are off and the masks are lowered this Hallowe'en weekend, it's clear there's someone rather peculiar close to home! But they're not so odd that they won't respond to love.
What were those cackling witches stirring into their cauldron? Did their ingredients qualify under the stringent rules of the Food and Drug Administration? How did they manage when the spell book called for herbs than only grow in particular countries? How did they get round importation restrictions on various flora, fauna and fungi? Is that why some incantations proved unsuccessful? If, this Hallowe'en weekend, you want to work real magic, just use what you have close by. If it's not naturally in your heart, you won't need it!
Light must surely flicker if it is ever to imbue all that it illuminates with a queer quality. No ancient sage was ever blessed with a vision of future by gazing at the output of an LED. No carefully carved pumpkin ever struck fear in trick-or-treaters when powered by a fluorescent fitting. If we want to remain in a romantic realm we must keep a handle on our candle and raise aloft only the most natural flame. Events, this Hallowe'en weekend, require you to distinguish between the artificial and the genuine if you truly seek success.
Where are the werewolves? Why, with so many monsters, ghouls, ghosts, vampires, witches and zombies on parade, are our furrier, fiercer friends in such short supply? Perhaps because this year, Hallowe'en does not coincide with a Full Moon. Legends may allow those other beastly beings some precedent for being seen out and about at the wrong time of the month. But what is wolf without a moon to howl at? Don't watch for what trouble is bubbling over this weekend. Watch for where it may be brewing.
Gothic coffins, like any other kind of bed, need periodic attention. Those crimson silk linings must be frequently laundered. The brass handles must be cleaned with vinegar. Antique Mahogany requires beeswax if it is not to fade. It almost goes without saying, here at Hallowe'en, that appearances are important to many at the moment. But you need not worry too much about putting on the right kind of a show. Just as it is for a fine wine or a legendary count, time is on the side of every Capricorn this weekend.
What are human beings if not dancing skeletons? Though those whose outfits carry a bone motif this Hallowe'en may consider themselves clad in fearful apparel, their suits won't scare many nurses and technicians who habitually operate X Ray machines. But then, isn't that the essence of most psychological discomfort? Rather than accept some basic fact of life, we allow it to make us squeal and squirm? This weekend helps you to see an old source of anxiety for what it truly is... and thus to relax!
The ultimate accoutrement for anyone seeking to make an impression this Hallowe'en, is probably a pair of spooky contact lenses. Costumes are all well and good but when we look into someone's eyes and see there, something we were not expecting, it can be a most disturbing experience. Not that this is a reason for you, this weekend, to avoid eye contact with anyone. Au contraire. Indeed, if you wish to defuse tension in any situation, build trust and restore peace, full, honest, face-to-face contact is surely the way forward.

4th of July Weekend Misadventures
So this one time, I bought tickets for a show at Hard Rock and totally thought it was at House of Blues, and I didn't realize my mistake until we were parked and eating dinner at the wrong venue. Okay yeah that time was last Thursday night, the show was Lindsay Stirling, and after laughing about my total and complete blonde moment, Vince, Ryan, Alicia and I booked it from HOB to Hard Rock and caught the last 6 songs of the show. It was totally worth the effort because Lindsay Stirling was Continue Reading
The New and Improved Guestroom!
There is no way anyone is going to be able to truly appreciate this post, these photos, or the insane amount of work it took to get this room back to habitable status after Joey moved out. But damn if I'm not gunna try. So, before Joey moved in, my guestroom looked kinda like this: I say "kinda" because we donated the purple headboard to friends and upgraded the bed to a queen. But otherwise, it pretty much looked like that. Then Joey moved in, we added a desk to the room and put Continue Reading
I can officially check "See Cher Perform Live" off of my bucket list!
You read the headline! That ish is real!! I SAW CHER, PEOPLE!!! See, what had happened was.... In early February I was on my way to work, sitting in the parking lot that is I4 in Downtown Orlando at 8:30am, when I saw the giant video screen on the side of the Amway Center advertise Cher coming to OUR little town in May. I was like "WHAAAAAT?!?" My first thought was "HOW THE EFF DID I NOT HEAR ABOUT THIS?!" Followed closely by "I HAVE TO CALL CODY!!!" Which was immediately followed Continue Reading
48 Hours in San Francisco
You already know my Dad died while I was in San Francisco. You might also know that I was only there 48 hours before I had to come home after his very sudden (and still shocking, painful, devastating) death. But what you might NOT know is that, between the nearly non-stop calls with Daddy and Cari and Corey, and the 6 hours of travel time each way, I actually had a little bit of fun. We were in San Fran to visit our dearest friend Timmay who moved there 4 years ago. Every year Timmay comes Continue Reading
PaintNite DateNite with Cody!
(Another pre-Daddy draft finally gets finished....) Last Christmas I got Cody two present: One functional (a gift card) and another fun: PaintNite Date Night with ME!!!! You probably know the whole concept of PaintNite but I think each one is a little different. This one is run by local artists, hosted at various local bars, (so constantly roaming) and highly encourages drinking while painting. Everyone works on the same piece, which is different per class, and each painting is gauged on Continue Reading

Thanksgiving Dinner Between Two Pieces Of Bread
Why wait to have your Thanksgiving dinner the day of? You can bite into Thanksgiving between two slices of bread any day of the week, thanks to our city's savvy sandwich makers. Warning: do not operate heavy machinery after downing one of these creations. Food comas likely await. Here are our picks for Thanksgiving-themed sandwiches (and one hot dog!) that give us (the good kind of) heart palpitations.
Everything but the Bird: Tasty Side Dishes for Your Thanksgiving Feast
November brings with it a flurry of holiday traditions as well as a stack of spanking-new cookbooks published by some of the city's best chefs and authors. In this series, we put two and two together and created the ultimate Thanksgiving dinner. The only things you're in charge of are the turkey and the stuffing. Today, we feature a couple of savory sides.
Secret Recipe: Swiss Green Bean Casserole from The Front Porch
Thanksgiving Parking Tips From Parking Guru, David La Bua
While you're traveling about town this Thanksgiving weekend, know all the ins and outs of holiday parking so you don't get stuck with a nasty ticket on your windshield. David LaBua, author of city parking manual Finding the Sweet Spot, has all the info you'll need.
Secret Recipe: Pickled Cranberries from SPQR
Every week, we ask the city's favorite chefs for the recipes to their most loved cocktails, bar snacks, starters, mains, and desserts. If there's a dish you can't stop thinking about and want to make at home, email email@example.com. Your wish may end up on the blog, along with the actual recipe from the chef.
Thanksgiving? How (And What) To Drink All Day Long
Paul Einbund is the wine director of the Slanted Door restaurant group including Out the Door Bush Street and Westfield Centre as well as Heaven's Dog. He also runs the beverage program at Frances, and has worked at Coi and more. Look for him here every Tuesday. Follow him on Twitter @pauleinbund.
How could you not love a holiday that is based around dinner? Here are some of my ideas on what to drink—and what to avoid.
The No-Fail Guide to San Francisco Thanksgiving Preparedness
This weekend marks the frantic countdown to Turkey Day. To help you in your weekend preparedness errands, here's a collection of our Thanksgiving guides.

Secret Recipe: Garlicky Mashed Potatoes from Citizen's Band
7x7 asks the city's favorite chefs for the recipes to their most loved cocktails, bar snacks, starters, entrees, and desserts. If there's a dish you can't stop thinking about and want to make at home, email email@example.com. Your wish may end up on the blog, along with the actual recipe from the chef. Check back every Thursday for a new secret recipe.
Chef Chris Beerman of Citizen's Band in SoMa cooks up 100 percent Americana―right down to the creamy mashed potatoes spiked with sweet, nutty garlic. They stand up nicely next to his fried chicken and steaks or your upcoming Thanksgiving feast.
The 7 Best Thanksgiving Beers (According to Monk's Kettle Cicerone Sayre Piotrkowski)
Thanksgiving is the best holiday in existence, because pretty much all that's required of you is eating...and drinking. We asked Monk's Kettle cicerone and human beer encyclopedia Sayre Piotrkowski for his picks for the best seasonal brews (all with high-alcohol content! goodbye family awkwardness!) to pair with your turkey feast:
The (SF) Thankgiving Pie Bible
Now that we've provided you with Turkey 101 (you have ordered your bird, right?), it's time for our Pie Primer. Because, really, when you think about it, if you have a great finale to the meal, your guests will forgive any transgressions that occur before dessert (for some holiday "horror" stories, click here).
Tartine Bakery has a full compliment of holiday pies and breads. Maybe you want a classic pumpkin, an apple nougatine, or a frangipane tart with cranberries and orange zest (all $38)? Yeah, we didn't think you were planning to make that one at home. You can also preorder bread (country, walnut and olive with herbes de provence), cornbread, gougeres and a host of other delights.

|Wikimedia Foundation
|Notification system
|Echo @ MediaWiki.org
Notifications is a web service designed to inform users about new activity on Wikipedia in a unified way. It provides notifications to users of a number of events, including new talk page messages, edit reverts, mentions or links. It is intended to augment (rather than replace) the watchlist, by highlighting key user interactions.
Notifications are displayed next to the username and user-talk links in the top right of the page for logged-in users, and show as a coloured square with a number representing the number of recent notifications. Email notifications can be set up for some or all types of notification as a user preference.
Notification events[edit]
Currently, eight types of event trigger a notification message. As well as the message box on the top right of every page, a special archive page lets you find your recent notifications in one place - Special:Notifications.
It is possible to turn these types of notification on or off individually through user preferences. To customize which notifications you receive, go to the Notifications tab of your preferences. For tips on how to use this tool, visit this FAQ page or this testing page.
- Talk page messages: When a message is left on your user talk page. This replaced the full-width orange banner stating "You have a new message from another user", but by default a small orange tag will be displayed next to the notification to highlight it.
Talk page messages are the only type of notification which cannot be disabled; a web notification will always be sent.
- Mentions: When your userpage is linked to on any talk page or on a page in the Wikipedia: namespace by another user. A number of templates are used for this - {{U}}, {{ping}}, {{reply to}} and {{tiny ping}} - will all trigger notifications. Plain links to user pages will also work:
[[User:Example|]]. This is one of the most popular uses of notifications; it is often used to inform other people about ongoing discussions of interest to them, or to let them know of a reply to a message on a page they may not be watching.
Note that the post containing a link to a userpage must be signed; if the edit does not add a new signature to the page, no notification will be sent. It must also be in the page text - links in the edit summary do not create notifications.
- Page links: When a new link is made from an article to an article that you created;
- Page reviews: When a page you created is reviewed;
- Edit reverts: When one of your edits is reverted by another user;
- Thanks: A small "thank you" for an edit, made by another user from the article history or diffpage;
- User rights: When your user rights change. (This currently does not include gaining autoconfirmed status);
- Course talk: When anyone posts to the talk page of an active course page you are participating in (deploys 2014-01-23)
There is a sitewide list of accounts that cannot trigger notifications at MediaWiki:Echo-blacklist which can be overridden by users at Special:MyPage/Echo-whitelist. Currently, it contains one entry; SineBot (talk · contribs).
Known bugs[edit]
There are a number of bugs currently known with the notifications system:
- Failure to spot signatures. In some cases (usually when changing another, recent, comment with a signature) the parser does not realise that a user has made a new signed comment, and so does not trigger a notification.
- Confusing section titles. On pages with complicated markup, or after edit conflicts, the notification will sometimes give the wrong section heading for a message.
- Transclusion. Because a notification is generated whenever a page is linked to, accidental transclusion of other pages can cause a sudden flurry of unintentional notifications through links on the transcluded page.
For all open Notifications related bugs, see the list on bugzilla.
Technical details[edit]
- Moved to mw:Help:Echo#Technical details
The tool was developed by the Wikimedia Foundation's editor engagement team, originally under the name "Echo", and was released on the English Wikipedia on 30 April 2013, after extensive testing on mediawiki.org. For more information, read this blog announcement.
To learn more about these features, visit this FAQ page. After this initial release, we plan to develop a few more features and notifications, based on community feedback. We expect this notification tool to be an integral part of future engagement projects such as the upcoming Flow messaging feature, once they are developed.
If you have any feedback on existing features, or suggestions for new ones, please suggest them on the Editor Engagement talk page!
If you would like to report a bug, you are welcome to leave a message on the talkpage or post it on Bugzilla (be sure to include your operating system, web browser version and a screenshot or URL for the page where your bug can be found).

Camping Supplies in Orlando

Orlando weather allows for camping opportunities all year round. While the leaves don't change color and snow never falls, temperature is still something to consider when planning a camping trip to the Orlando resort area.
Weather Reports
Orlando Weather
International Drive
During the winter months temperatures may still be warm during the day, but at night it can, on occasion, dip to near freezing levels. It's important if you are camping in the winter to bring warm clothes, along with a jacket and plenty of extra blankets. During the summer months it stays warm throughout the day and night, so it is not required, but still recommended, to bring along something warm just in case.
Jeff Survillas of Disney's Fort Wilderness Campground recommends that campers be sure to bring a bug repellent to deal with the mosquitoes in Central Florida. Having a spray or lotion repellent will go a long way toward easing any discomfort that the insects may cause.
Did you lose or forget something on your way to camping in Orlando? Don't panic! Just refer to the list of camping supplies in Orlando, and you'll be back on the trail in no time.

Want refund and sick of Invisalign side effects
- guneapig
- 1 year ago
One month into treatment, have being having an early alarming signs of multiple side effects caused by Invisalign braces, ended up in Emergency Department. Orthodontist recomends to keep braces on despite the reaction, says refund is not possible. Unbelievable! Invisalign product and policy is killing me. Never had allergic reaction that bad and never paid that much for having it.
Comments (3)
You should check out the actual disclaimer. Orthodontist may say refund not possible but ultimately it is for a court to decide should you decide to take it that far.
They make a hypoallergenic version, some are allergic to the plastic, u should check with dentist about it
How do you know that Invisalign caused these "side effects"? Have you been to an allergy specialist? If you had a letter from a doctor stating that Invisalign definitely caused your medical problems, you might have a case for a refund.

This past Sunday, it was the Chicago PPKs monthly potluck and Diana graciously hosted the get together. Our theme this month was red/Valentine's Day! It was a very exciting theme, but it was really hard to decide what to make!! I ended up making gluten-free beet piergoies. I used this recipe for the filling & this one for the dough. I have never had them before, so I wasn't sure if they came out good or not. They were really easy to make and they ended up tasting pretty good. I also made the dilly sauce from Vegan Eats World to go along with them!
Diana made a delicious non-alcholic sangria. It was light, refreshing, and very red!
Diana also made the muhammara from Vegan Eats World! So delisious & it made a great appetizer!
Diana also made the Borscht recipe from Vegan Eats World, which was amazing!! It was one of the best soups that I have had in a long time. I will definitely be making this recipe sometime soon! {If you don't own Vegan Eats World, I highly recommend that you get it!}
Nissa made stuffed peppers and they were amazing. I knew that they were going to be good because on the car ride there they smelled so good!!
For our dessert, Nissa made a sumptuous chocolate dessert that was also gluten-free!! I think that we all agreed that this was the best dish of the potluck. It was really rich, decedent, and oh so good!
Everything tasted amazing & it was great spending time together as a group! I look forward to potluck days not only for all the amazing food, but also being able to spend time with other like-minded people. This really helps to build a community, especially if you don't know any vegans/or vegetarians.
I can't wait until our next potluck!

You should go to the thrift store more often. You never know what you'll find.

Community star Danny Pudi directed this fascinating ESPN short about Marquette University's basketball unconventional basketball uniforms. It's called "Untucked," in honor of the jersey you see above - which was designed to be worn outside of the trunks. Designed, in fact, by one of Marquette's players, an art major named Bo Ellis. It's a great look not just at sports uniforms, but at the relationship between clothing and culture.
Apparently NBA players are bitching about having sleeved jerseys, but the NBA is keeping them because they sell extremely well. I'll tell you why they're selling well: Because for any fan, the basketball jersey is, by far, the hardest jersey to pull off. It takes a lot of confidence to walk out into the world with bare shoulders and your [luscious] pit hair sticking out and repulsing everyone. NBA players look great in sleeveless jerseys because NBA players are world class athletes. The rest of us are not. You get really self-conscious really quickly when you're standing there in a basketball jersey. You are already halfway to playing for the skins team, and playing for the skins team is TERRIFYING. If I'm an NBA fan and I have a choice between rocking the beater or a sleeved jersey, I'm going sleeves every time. It's not even close.
Drew Magary articulating a fear I know all too well: getting picked by the skins team.
Image: The Spurs' Tony Parker looking salty in a sleeved jersey.
"I talked to my team before the playoffs, and my message to them was simple: 'Keep a fresh cut.' You want to make sure your haircut looks good, because when we continue to do what we've talked about doing, the media room will be filled, articles will be written and people will be talking about you. You don't want to look back on it, like I look back at some of my old playoff moments, and wonder why I didn't visit the barbershop."— Golden State Warriors coach Mark Jackson on the increased attention the team's been getting.
I loved this short film about Walt Frazier's style. If you don't know, Frazier wears some of the most outrageous clothes in the world - he's famous for making suits from upholstery fabric. He even owns (and wears) one with a cow spot pattern. Despite his outrageousness, though, he always looks great. Of course his broad, charming smile helps. And the fact that he's a genuine basketball legend.
An aside: the short's directed by Nelson George. Not only is George the author of one of the most important books about soul music, The Death of Rhythm & Blues, he also provided hand claps on an unalloyed hip-hop classic, Kurtis Blow's The Breaks, and co-wrote CB4. You gotta admit, that's quite a resume.
Jordan Peele of Key & Peele nails NBA style in the brilliant, hilarious "You Can Fly!" sketch.
I got a kick out of this San Francisco Chronicle retrospective on the style of basketball legend Rick Barry, from his preppy days through an extended neck scarf period through till today's elderly mountain gentleman (?) aesthetic. Some good, some truly horrible, a lot of interesting.
Speaking of my conversation with the Wall Street Journal, here's the whole interview on their sports blog. In it, I discuss college basketball coach outfits like the nightmare above, which I think Bob Huggins may have purchased from one of those "Two Suits! Two Shirts! Two Ties! Two Belts! Two Shoes! Two Hundred Dollars!" stores. (To be fair, it's also possible he stole it from Willie Stargell.)
The Wall Street Journal: The Tournament & What I Wore
Ben Cohen of the Wall Street Journal was nice enough to give me a call and ask me some questions about how coaches should dress for March Madness. Ben also spoke with Glenn O'Brien, GQ's Style Guy, so I'm proud to be in such august company.
"Suit looks great MJ! And hey… I've been thinking… you should grow a cool Hitler mustache thing!"

"Simplicity has helped us make nyt⨍aбrik global, reliable, fast, and efficient. It scales up and down on a minute's notice to meet demand."
- Michael Laing, Systems Architect at The New York Times
Michael Laing Systems Architect at The New York Times
The New York Times
The New York Times is the premier news organization and has a worldwide online presence.
I am the systems architect of the nyt⨍aбrik platform that supports the online functions.
NY Times' messaging + update system
nyt⨍aбrik is a "chat" system for things — our client and partner devices, our systems and services.
It is simple and tries to do only a few tasks very well — connect millions of devices to our services, route billions of messages quickly and efficiently, remember every message.
Simplicity has helped us make nyt⨍aбrik global, reliable, fast, and efficient. It scales up and down on a minute's notice to meet demand.
Choosing Cassandra
Open source, multi-region support, scalability, and reliability/availability were the primary criterion. We used DynamoDB originally, but converted as it is not multi-region. Riak similarly does not have an open source multi-region capability. And we liked the look of CQL3 and the asynchronous protocol.
Our volumes vary widely which requires scalability. The news must get out, requiring consistent speed and reliability/availability. Our messaging architecture is flat and wide — we wanted a cache to match.
Cassandra for cache
Cassandra is the global caching layer for nyt⨍aбrik. We use Cassandra 2.0.6.
If a service wants to deliver a message to a user device but that device is not connected — we cache the message for later delivery. Many clients want to receive the latest versions of certain kinds of messages — "breaking news" for example — whenever they connect. These messages are cached as well and served on connection based upon client preference (also cached).
The cache is useful for analyzing the messages that flow through nyt⨍aбrik. And often we want to retrieve a certain message or see who read it.
We currently run a small cluster — as small as we can get away with: 12 nodes in production across 6 zones in 2 AWS regions: Oregon and Dublin. And our volumes through nyt⨍aбrik are small: 10 to 100 M messages per day. And the messages are small: 1 – 5 KB typically — large message bodies are pushed to S3 / CloudFront and passed by reference. All messages have a ttl — 3 days by default — we never do explicit deletes. We will be adding more regions — and as we start gathering events and provide more client messaging services, volumes will grow rapidly.
Words of wisdom
Start with the latest release of Cassandra 2 — it is sufficiently stable now.
Use CQL3. Try not to get confused by the old terminology many people still use.
Learn the physical structures, read path, write path, etc. so you can design high performing tables that support your operations consistently and well.
The community has been good. Very active; very responsive. Take the time to read the JIRA issues so you know what "features" to avoid for now.
Open source is great. See you at OSCON in Portland, OR.

BirdWeb: Seattle Audubon's Guide to the Birds of Washington State
Bird of the Week
Northern Pintail
Anas acuta
An elegant dabbling duck, the Northern Pintail can be found throughout North America, Europe, and Asia. This species is an early breeder, nesting as soon as the ice melts in the northern part of its range. Northern Pintails arrive at their wintering grounds early as well, where they flock by the thousands to feed on grains, seeds, and aquatic invertebrates.
Birding Site of the Week
Blaine/Semiahmoo/Drayton Harbor
Puget Trough
Framed by Semiahmoo Spit to the west and Blaine to the east (and the Canadian border to the north), Drayton Harbor is one of the premier coastal birding sites in Washington. The variety of waterbirds in winter can be staggering, including three species of loons, all three scoter species, and Harlequin, Long-tailed, and Ruddy Ducks. The area also attracts larger wintering flocks of gulls and sandpipers, as well as some alcids.

Where do we figure in the universal scheme of things?
this unanswered question is likely to so remain
we could be so insignificant, our egos would suffer pain
maybe we are caretakers, to preserve beauty in our domain?,
or no role at all may be our lot, along with other Earthly beings.
Does it really matter?...... we're here and that's a fact
it's a wonderful world to enjoy, within life's short span
whatever our role, if any, life's great if we can so make it
given reasonably good health, and strength enough to act.
To stay healthy is our main concern, and that of medical science
great strides in recent decades they've made, keeping us ahead
of viruses and other microorganisms,with aims we all do dread
their speedy mutations a constant threat, boffins combat
in defiance.
It would seem that life wasn't meant to be one smooth breeze,
there had to be adversaries to beat, just as in epic tales of old,
perhaps, when reaching our destinations, we will all be told,
'drink from the Holy Grail my friends, put on your Golden Fleece"

Safety and Precautions in Durban
Safety and Precautions
Durban has not escaped the crime evident in every South African city. Particularly in the city center but also elsewhere, smash-and-grab thieves roam the streets, looking for bags or valuables in your car, even while you're driving, so lock any valuables in the trunk and keep your car doors locked and windows up at all times. While there's no need to be fearful, be observant wherever you go. Hire a guide to take you around Durban, don't wander around the city center or outside your hotel alone at night, and keep expensive cameras and other possessions concealed. The Durban Beachfront (with recently upgraded security features), Umhlanga, and the outlying areas are safe to explore on your own, though you'll need a taxi or car to get between them. If you plan on taking a dip while you're at the beach, ask a neighboring beachgoer or lifeguard to keep an eye on your belongings, or put them in a locker—available between North and South beaches and on Umhlanga Main Beach.
The best hospitals in central Durban are Entabeni and St. Augustine's, both private hospitals in the Glenwood area with 24-hour emergency rooms. Umhlanga Hospital is the best north of the city. Addington Hospital, a massive public hospital on the Beachfront, operates a 24-hour emergency room; though it's cheaper, it's not recommended.
