One time I stayed up late trying to force my loose tooth to come out. I'll spare you the grisly details, but I used various bathroom implements to pull, pry and prod until finally the tooth came out. Because I wasn't supposed to be up so late I didn't tell my parents about the tooth coming out (they probably would have also known it wasn't loose enough), but I put the tooth under my pillow. The next morning when the tooth was still there with no money or Trident gum, I was convinced that the Tooth Fairy knew I had cheated by pulling the tooth out before it was ready.
