to NOT tell DH what he's just done?

32 replies

BibiJesus · 12/12/2008 21:15

I got new toothbrushes today, so DH merrily throws his away immediately, I thought I'd throw mine tonight after it's last use.

So, the lazy sod couldn't be bothered to go get his new one from the kitchen and thought as I was throwing mine away he'd just use it one last time ...

except it wasn't my toothbrush, it was the toothbrush I use to scrub my mooncup

Oh dear. Pmsl a lot though I don't know if I could not say anything, the look on his face would be priceless!

Mamazontopofsanta · 12/12/2008 21:17

oh no, you mustn't tell him.

But maybe let him accidentally catch you cleaning your mooncup next time

constancereader · 12/12/2008 21:18

hold it in reserve for the next time he annoys you

I would love to see the look on his face but I don't know if it's worth it, knowing how grumpy he'll be if he finds out.

Secretly lmao

I'm confused. Not sure I want to know answer but WTF is a mooncup. Sorry if thats incredably stupid question

VirginBoffinMum · 12/12/2008 21:29

I think you should also put out the toothbrush you clean plugholes with as well. Make it a sport.

DoesntChristmasDragOn · 12/12/2008 21:30

It's a rubber egg cup you put up your fanjo instead of a tampon.

DoesntChristmasDragOn · 12/12/2008 21:30

(although I suspect their marketing blurb may put it a little differently)

MmeHereWeGoAWassailLindt · 12/12/2008 21:34

You should work in marketing. If the Mooncup company were to use your description, they would have to increase production to keep up with orders.

The stupid part is, it's not even kept in the toothbrush/toothpaste pot, it was in the next pot on the shelf. And isn't covered in toothpaste. And doesn't look like it's had 3 months of constant use.

He so silly.

I used to work in marketing, oddly enough, but for life insurance "Buy this and let your loved ones live it up when you die!" I was made redundant after a year for some reason

leoleomakingalist · 12/12/2008 21:38

...

DoesntChristmasDragOn · 12/12/2008 21:39

Hand him his new brush and say "You might want to brush your teeth again. I threw my toothbrush away this morning..."

pmsl thanks for that. its superb.
honestly men!!! Is there no limit to their laziness?

Tell him and then tell us his reaction, preferably with a camera handy so that we can see an action shot of his face

I don't think I could tell him now, it's been hours, he's gonna be soooooo annoyed if he knows I've been sitting on it for this long.

Just got to get round kissing him until I'm less icked out but it all.
