When you drop your or DC's toothbrush on the bathroom floor ...

[Anonymous]

I just put it under the faucet for a few seconds.

Damn, am I the only one who is so awesome that I never drop my kids' toothbrushes? Who are you clumsy freaks?

Our house has a weird layout--each kid's room has a sink in it, and just the tub and toilet are in the jack and Jill bath between their rooms.

I'm definitely in the quick rinse camp.

I prefer to buy mine locally when I can, but no one stays in business for long (sigh). There are a few excellent suppliers in California, but I don't want that Japanese radiation!

Geez, that's all we need around here-a couple of SAHDs with too much time on their hands. You sanctidaddies make me want to barf!

No doubt TheManWithAUserName is the OP.

WTF? I finally put my money where my mouth has been about the anonymity problem, going to the trouble of setting up an ID, and I get accused of sock puppetry?

Oh, the injustice.

I see a red door and I want it painted black. Or beige. Or eggplant. Or colonial blue. How 'bout ecru? Aubergine? Concord Grape? Crepe D'Jaune? Mary Kay Fuschia? Stop me when I start to get redundant. Take my wife please.

If you boil toothbrushes, the bristles will fall out. I suggest washing the bristles with hot soapy water, rinsing well, then dipping the brush in a mixture of 1tsp. bleach and hot water, then letting the brush air dry. Or you could buy a new one, or just pick the brush up go on with your day. I mean how dirty is the floor we are talking about? I dropped my toothbrush on the floor and I just picked it up and kept brushing. Unless you keep the toothbrush in a hermetically sealed room, its gonna get germs on it.

[Anonymous]

What if you drop it in the loo? We have a let it mellow household, so I'm thinking toss it.

[Anonymous]

Yeesh. Just pick it up, rinse it in hot water, and call it a day. Dip it in some hydrogen peroxide if you're really skeeved out by the floor.

Tossing it? That's so wasteful. Landfill, anyone?

[Anonymous]

We neither clean our bathroom floor frequently enough nor change our toothbrushes frequently enough, so I use the opportunity to replace the brush head when it drops.

[Anonymous]

Why in the world aren't you people cleaning your bathroom floors more often??? If your bathroom floor seems so offensive to you that you have to throw the toothbrush away after dropping it, then why aren't you also neurotic about all the germs you're tracking around the rest of your house on the bottoms of your feet????

[Anonymous]

Wow. I didn't know people were so neurotic. Pick it up. Rinse. Reuse. It's not like he dropped it IN the toilet, right?

[Anonymous]

Shit. I just put it back in my mouth.
