Toothpaste Tubes Part 2

When I told my first wife about the refilling a tube of toothpaste with thing, she said she thought it would be better if we replaced someones regular tube with a gag tube.


HAHA! I said gag tube. Sounds like a new Hollywood diet. Who am I kidding, that's nothing new. Would that make your index finger a gag tube? What would be awesome is someone who wouldn't gag... Giggity giggity

Anyway... Back to the post.

So, I was telling a friend about my wife's idea of replacing someones toothpaste tube with one filled with cake frosting. He didn't quite get it, because he asked me, "wouldn't you get in trouble if someone caught you in their house switching out their toothpaste? What would you say if you got caught? Ummm, Hi. Nice pajamas.". Then I explained that you wouldn't do that to a stranger, you would just do it with someone you knew. Still, that made me think that it might be worth jail time TO switch out some strangers toothpaste.

The idea of going to jail over breaking into some strangers house to swap out their tube of toothpaste with a gag tube (that cracks me up, I'm going to run that into the ground now) kills me, and our conversation goes off onto that subject.

He pontificates on what a conversation in a jail cell would be like, "What are you in for?", "Well...Say, do you like toothpaste?"

Which made me think that prisons could become sponsored by toothpaste companies. "This maximum security prison is brought to you by Colgate, the keep it fresh company!"

Keeping it fresh makes me thinks of the bad things that happen in prison, and how toothpaste would be involved in said bad things. How would that toothpaste commercial go? "Yeah, it burns at first, but I feel so minty fresh afterwards!"

Then my friend pops out with a recommended brand of toothpaste, Colgate Creamer. Oh. My. Goodness. I can see/hear it now. "Colgate Creamer, 2 out of 3 inmates recommend it!"

I'm totally not doing our conversation justice, as you did have to be there. But still, Colgate Creamer...

By the way, if you ever, EVER invite me into your house (or someone who has read this blog), be wary of the tube of toothpaste sitting in your bathroom. Speaking of which, what kind of toothpaste do you use? :)
