I have just gone to dispose of wee in the potty and tripped over the bloody bathmat that I was supposed to have washed today but forgot

I managed a kind of hop and save so that the potty and wee went in the sink.

All over my toothbrush Hmm

But thats not the gross bit. The gross bit was I have actually just weighed up the pro's and cons of either cleaning and using my toothbrush vs borrowing dh's until I can be bothered to fetch a new one.

Seriously? At what point did I stoop to the level where I consider which is preferable, a piss on toothbrush used by myself, or a toothbrush used by my husband.

AIBU to ask which you'd pick?
Offsprings piss or OH mouth germs?

Haven't there been MN'ers who have confessed to weeing on DP's toothbrush as a form of revenge?

(I might have that horribly wrong)

Fairylea · 19/10/2012 18:27

Well I cleaned the toilet with ex dhs toothbrush the day before he moved out. The cheating bastard.

complexnumber · 19/10/2012 18:38

I don't think you are alone Fairylea

(Strange as it may seem)

complexnumber · 19/10/2012 18:39

... well, I am imagining you were alone when you did it, if you see what I mean.

Fairylea · 19/10/2012 18:42

:) I was alone when I did it... of course I should have recorded it and sent the video to him afterwards.... after he'd brushed of course...

Marzipanface · 19/10/2012 18:51

Dishwasher?

Merrin · 19/10/2012 18:52

Put it in the dish washer!

SecretNutellaFix · 19/10/2012 18:56

Boil the kettle, fill a mug and stand the toothbrush in it for half an hour, bristles in the water.

BTW, I am currently imagining a "That's not My..." book, featuring your toothbrush.

Softlysoftly · 19/10/2012 18:57

Wtf how much space can you save in a suitcase by omitting 1 toothbrush Confused

Clean teeth with toothpaste on a flannel!

HoneyDragon · 19/10/2012 19:14

Nutty Grin, I thought that too!

That's not my toothbrush, the dog chewed it

That's not my toothbrush, it has food on it

That's not my toothbrush it's too small

That's my toothbrush! It smells of wee!

TheDoctrineOfSnatch · 19/10/2012 19:51

Brilliant SNF!

dopishe · 19/10/2012 19:57

Just soak the wee toothbrush in Milton -it'll be fine! Pee has no 'bits' in it -unlike somebody else's toothbrush.

I think the lady who sucks her baby's bogeys is the sweetest thing I've heard in ages. How lovely and I'm not being sarcastic. It's really, really sweet.

Loobylou222 · 19/10/2012 19:59

SHARING TOOTHBRUSHES IS WRONG! I think im gonna be physically sick! I would go for the toddler piss toothbrush, soaked in boiling water first!

HoneyDragon · 19/10/2012 20:04

Nutty Grin that so needs publishing

Hmmmm I post an AIBU to use a pissed on toothbrush and everyone's more horrified at intentional long term toothbrush sharing.

It really is a funny old world.

dopishe · 19/10/2012 20:05

To be truthful, if it's just baby pee, I wouldn't even bother with the Milton. Just pour boiling water on it. But, yeah, other people's toothbrushes makes me feel a bit queasy. I find that they don't bother rinsing after use and it gets caked up with toothpaste and bits of food. Yuk!

SuePurblybilt · 19/10/2012 20:41

Yeuch at all you sharers

Toothpaste on the corner of a towel. Course, then you may be putting bum germs in to your mouth. Right - wash the towel - not with tea towels cos the bum germs - and use a clean flannel.
Unless you keep the flannels in the bathroom and there's a loo in there. Can you be sure everyone closes the lid before flushing? Cos if not there are POO SPORES ON YOUR BRUSHING FLANNEL

On balance, I'd just leave them be for tonight and buy a new brush tomorrow.

StaceymReadyForNumber3 · 19/10/2012 20:50

sue I love the way you've managed to get bum germs and tea towels into this thread Grin

HoneyDragon · 19/10/2012 20:53

I had already neglected the flannel. Wee is preferable to bum germs.

Bleach it. The pissy toothbrush. Or your DH's toothbrush. Hell, just give them all a good bleach.

And could you please start posting in Chat. I keep missing all your mishaps, and it's just Not On.

justmyview · 19/10/2012 20:58

My colleague found her son happily cleaning the loo with her toothbrush ....... and wondered how often he'd done it before .....

HoneyDragon · 19/10/2012 21:02

Sorry Stratters

ScarahStratton · 19/10/2012 21:06

I should think so too

[raspberry]

CremeEggThief · 19/10/2012 21:33

Neither! Not brushing your teeth (until you get a new toothbrush) is better than either. Deadly serious- I would chuck a toothbrush if it fell on the floor, and I used to hide mine away when DS was young and had friends over!

On the bright side, bet you're glad you hadn't washed the bathmat now :o.

sneezecakesmum · 19/10/2012 21:48

Bleach whichever brush you choose to use, but frankly your DHs mouth sounds so disgusting I would do both!
