Get them removed if your dentists says they will eventually become a problem after looking at your X-rays. Also, if you could find yourself in a situation where you may not have access to medical attention i.e. mission to mars, possible POW, etc. I had mine extracted for one of those reasons…
Not any more. We used to eat much rougher food, which required a lot more chewing, which caused us to have wider jaws. We don't anymore so our wisdom teeth crowd out the other teeth and cause issues.
Just watch out for dry-bone. Take the drugs, hang out and play vidya for a few days. Let everything heal up before doing anything stupid or strenuous.
Never had wisdom teeth. Dentist (he and I had the same dentist while growing up) said they are slowly going away as we (white people) don't need them anymore. Anecdotal, I know, but I trust him
As PW2 said, don't do anything which will cause Dry Socket, that shit hurts. No drinking with straws, no hard /crunchy foods.
Best thing about not having them to begin with, all the wisdom I ever had is still in my head.
When I got mine removed the put me under for it. As I'm waking up the dental hygienist with a huge rack was leaning over me telling me she had a prescription of Percocet filled for me. I really thought I died and went to heaven for a minute.

Get them extracted if they are going to destroy your other molars by coming in sideways or too crowded.
