Proper way to apply toothpaste

[Murloc]

Do you guys touch the toothbrush with the tube to detach the dangling piece of toothpaste or do you have some neat trick to share?

Oops. We missed this parody. Correcting that error now.

It just breaks off. I don't use mass market toothpaste though, so that may be a difference. I've used Toms of Maine since the early 90s, and recently tried Jāsön tea tree oil and cinnamon which I like a good bit.

Life hack: On the 10th of every month I pre-portion out a month's worth of toothpaste and freeze the individual single-use portions in those special containers they sell (they're cheap - a year's worth only runs about $250). I do this in my surgically clean kitchen while wearing gloves and a mask and only from a freshly opened tube of toothpaste that I've washed carefully.

Then each morning, after I make coffee and switch on the coffee maker and I'm about to get the creamer out of the fridge, I grab the next day's toothpaste from the freezer and set it out on the counter to thaw. When I get home from work, after taking off my shoes and hanging up my keys, I grab the toothpaste and carry it upstairs to the bathroom before washing my face.

With just a little pre-planning, and by robotically going through these simple, nearly reflexive steps every day, I have one less thing to worry about. It greatly simplifies my life, believe me.

Weekends require a slightly different sequence of tasks to realize this simplicity, but after a couple of years, I have that down pat, too.

I tend to have the tube touch the brush, but it totally just occurred to me that with a tube that is shared between multiple people, that is kind of unsanitary because the germs from your brush go on the end of the tube. And I've done this all my life when I lived with my parents. Am I going to die?

lmao! That looks like something you'd see in some overexageration of hardships in an infomercial. If it is I wonder what product it's for lol.

I brush with arctic silver 5. My teeth are overclocked.

I alternate between baking soda and Crest. My grandpa brushed with nothing but baking soda and never had a cavity in his life. No, I don't share.

I apply a pea sized drop and smear it around with a credit card... duh.

Man, 10 years ago if I had posted what I originally posted there would have been 5-6 responses within the first 60 seconds calling me out on it.

This place am dead.
