Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

Broken

My toothbrush is broken. They never last for very long. Whenever I brush my teeth, after I’m done, I tap the brush on the sink to knock the excess water out. I must tap too hard, because my toothbrushes always break. I can continue to use them, but only if I hold them extremely close to the bristles.

If I’m careful, I don’t get much toothpaste foam on my hand.

I'm sad to see this one go.  It has super soft bristles.

    …but I’m also a sink-tapper and cannot honestly say I have ever broken a toothbrush handle that way (or any other way, now that I think on it). It must all be in the wrist action, eh?

    [I just got a new toothbrush m’self – great feeling, those…]

    Finally, the Green Acres tapping has caught up to you.

    Now I can’t remember if I tap or not. I think I just shake the toothbrush, but …. Dang this bad memory. I’ll know after breakfast.

    I’m picturing a fairly light tab, but brushing like you’re trying to get the X off of a Y.

    Seriously, I’ve got nothing. I sat and thought about it for 5 minutes.

      It’s ok. I didn’t have a remarkable day yesterday, so there wasn’t anything to post about. While I was writing about my broken toothbrush, I was feeling sorry for anyone who was going to try to comment on the post.

      At least today it’s snowing a lot, and since my workplace never closes, I’m driving out into it. If nothing else, at least I will have something to post about for tomorrow.

    Wow, what super strength you must have! I wonder if they make stainless steel toothbrushes? But then you’d run the risk of breaking the sink I suppose.

    I’ve never broken a toothbrush, but I have broken plenty of teeth….and I don’t even tap them on the sink.

      Tapping your teeth on the sink? You just gave me serious jibblies.
