Today, I stayed over at my grandparents' house. I woke up and had to brush my teeth. My grandma asked if I had found a toothbrush to use. I told her that I used my old purple toothbrush. She told me that was the toothbrush she used to brush her toenails. FML

Today, I changed my toothbrush because the bristles were wearing down. My brother later asked me why I changed his toothbrush. Apparently we've been sharing the same one for the past several weeks. FML

Today, I realized that the "eyelash curling brush" that my best friend found in my old bathroom drawer was actually a stick used for cleaning food out of my sister's braces. I used that thing for years. FML

Today, my brother came out of the shower and sat with my mom and me on the couch. He then says he liked the idea of the extra toothbrush in the shower, it helps him clean between his toes. I have been using that to brush my teeth for the last two weeks. FML

Today, my girlfriend was visiting, and while in the bathroom, she clogged the toilet. Since there was no plunger in the room, she unclogged it with the only thing she could find: my mother's hairbrush. FML

Reminds me of the time my sister said she used my toothbrush to clean the dog's teeth. Toothbrushes should be hidden from all family members in a special place only you know about...

Ew, I probably would have thrown up, no joke. Wash your mouth out with baking soda and/or salt warm water to disinfect and prevent any bacteria from sprouting in there. The last thing you need is a type of fungus or mouth sores that could be prevented. Sorry to hear that happened... *Shivers...*. FYL

Hope you learned your damn lesson. Next time, ASK your grandmother before you go sticking random objects into your mouth.

OMG, #19 made me want to vomit. Why would someone use a toothbrush to brush their toes??? Has she ever heard of a wash cloth or scrub brush?!

That's disgusting. Why didn't you pack your own toothbrush??? And why would you just use some random toothbrush that you found, with or without asking? You kind of asked for that. I mean, would it have been any better if it had been a toothbrush your grandparents used for their mouths?? If it's not a brand new toothbrush, still in its packaging, you probably shouldn't put it in your mouth.
