I'm pretty sure that I've mentioned before that I live in a dorm, and I have never been happier that I am moving off campus for next year!

Our hall bathroom is split into a showers side and a toilets/sinks side... tonight when I went to shower I put my toothbrush and toothpaste on a sink so that I could brush my teeth as soon as I got out of the shower. I was in the shower for 10 minutes, and when I got out to go to the sinks, my nearly-new toothpaste was gone! Toothbrush was there, but the paste got snatched!

I'm so annoyed, I hate going to bed without clean teeth
And I dunno where my roommate keeps hers, so I'll have to wait until she rolls in (about 2am) to find out. Whyyyyy would somebody steal toothpaste?!!?

I guess funds are tight for some students and things like toothpaste is a "luxury" so if they can score a freebie, they do.

I brush my teeth in the shower. It's a real time saver. The shower has water and a drain just like the sink, so the only difference is the location.

I have very sensitive taste buds and for the most part can't stand the taste or feel of toothpaste in my mouth. Most of the time I brush with just water, or sometimes baking soda. When I do use toothpaste I use a "gel" and put only a very little bit on the tips of the brush otherwise I'll retch and gag but mostly I just floss and then brush with water. My dentist said that's fine so long as I'm flossing and "brushing" to remove plaque.

I tried that, but I take really hot showers and and don't like the feeling of brushing my teeth with hot water
Just doesn't feel as refreshing to me...I know, I'm weird!

The rotten thief! At a previous work place, I was in the habit of brushing my teeth after lunch. Twice someone walked out with my toothpaste *and* toothbrush while I was in the stall. Just weird taking the toothbrush. Ick!

Here... or There... Hmmm
The toothpaste bandit has struck again!!!
I guess next time I would bring in a ziplock baggy with all your toiletries into the shower with you!!! Sucks you'd have to do that but some people are really inconsiderate!!!

I buy things like toothpaste at the dollar store I have since college. Since it's only a dollar I didn't care if it got snatched it was all brand names like Crest, Colgate and Aqua fresh. I always keep one of those little tubes of paste and a brush in my purse too.


I'm a tooth brushing maniac!!
