What color is your toothbrush?

This was posted before by Ukulele Ike, but can’t be found in the search lists.

We need this information on record, for legal reasons, in case of an IRS audit.

Mine is a Braun automatic,** white with teal racing stripes**, and the teal band on the replacement head.

Soupy, mine is mostly white with some blue markings. By the way, I did a search on “Cecil Adams” and he only shown as posting in 37 threads and none of them have anything to do with toothbrushes in the subject line. Some of the threads date back as far as a year ago last April so I guess the thread Ike was talking about got lost somehow. Also I noticed that the last time Cecil posted was May 12th, which means this is the longest he has gone without posting since the inception of the message board. Maybe he will break his posting fast by updating us with his toothbrush color.

Mine is like a see-thru teal color, with white and blue bristles, medium grade.

Mine is clear with blue and green highlights. A simple, classic toothbrush.

Purple with a medium head and soft bristles and a blue toothpick nipple on the end. No racing stripes.

Hey, I’ve got the same one! :slight_smile:

I use the blue band though.

White & teal, kinda of curvy ~~~~~~~ oh has bristles too. Fits good in my mouth.

Mine’s white with maroon stripes and some yellow bristles…one of the “the head bends in the middle!” ones. I’m such a marketing dupe.

Did the bend thing work? Seems smart on TV.

I’ve got an old ivory Waterpick electric toothbrush, with red, blue, yellow and green heads.

May have to give it up though. The refill heads are harder and harder to locate.

I’ve got a blue one with yellow bumps on it here at work… but at home, its white… and electric baby!!!

Screeme

Pinky-red (kinda inbetween). It is really old and I should get a new one but I hate new toothbrushes.

My everyday one is half white and half dark blueish-green. My GI-Joe one is a pukey sort of green.

Soupy, Wanderer:

Look, guys. I formulated the dumbest-assed question I could think of, picked the four people least likely to respond to a question like it, and from these raw materials, crafted that post.

Sorry I sent everyone to the Search Engines. Next time I’ll add flashing neon signs reading THIS IS A JOKE.

Oh, yeah…green and white.

Ah, so the ukulele isn’t all you know how to play. I feel so dirty now.

One is purple (grape) and the second one, (in the shower), is teal. They color coordinate well with the white Tom’s of Main propolis and myrrh flavored tooth paste. (Tastes like chicken.)

The one in my earthquake/emergency over-night bag in the car is a middle-green I think. The one in my camp gear is cut in half. It was white. Now it’s kinda fuzzy-green-yellow.

I get the totally plain, least expensive brush I can find. I can’t see spending $3.50 or more for a plastic stick and a few bristles. And since when do we need to buy a new one every six months?! I bought the teal one yesterday for $1.99, I expect it’ll last a year.

Just the thought of bendy brushes drive me nuts! How can one apply any force if the damn thing bends?! Are they designed for people who genuinely don’t know their own strength?

How about a bendy fork?

And another thing: I use just a pea-sized dallop of paste instead of the incredibly generous portion they serve up in the ads.

Speaking of exaggeration in ads: did you know that it was an advertising copy writer who put the word “repeat” at the end of the instructions on a shampoo bottle and that it increased consuption (and thereby profits) by 30%!! They don’t “repeat” at the beauty parlor do they?

And shave cream…oh, sorry, carried away again.

Myself

Oh.

I thought this was some sort of job search thing, like “What color is your parachute?”

Mine’s translucent aquamarine, but it’s wearing out, and the one I have sitting in the box to eventually replace it is white with red highlites.

And judging from what little I know of Mr. Adams’ sense of humor, he’s just apt to show up in here anyway.

**Chronos: ** I was just thinking the same thing. And if he does answer, it’ll go on Soupy’s account, and then I’ll have to kill myself.

Funny to answer this question now since I just bought a black toothbrush for the first time ever. I didn’t even know they made them in black. It’s a standard/medium black 'brush with white trimming and the brand name “Dr. Best” on it. German model, btw, but not unusual since I bought it here (in Germany).

Blue.
