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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, I found out my whole family has been mistakenly using the same toothbrush for over a month. FML
Today, I found out everyone in my family thought the red toothbrush was theirs, and that all four of us have been using the same toothbrush for months. FML
Today, I found out that my little brother has been rubbing my toothbrush in dog shit for the last month because I accidentally broke one of his toys. FML
Today, I was teasing my little brother. Later that night, I went to the bathroom to wash up. While I'm brushing my teeth, my little brother slips a photo under the door that shows him scrubbing my toothbrush against his nuts. FML
Today, while I was brushing my teeth, my 5 year old-son walked into the bathroom. He gave me a mean look and said, "That's Sammy's toothbrush, not yours." I've been brushing my teeth with the dog's toothbrush for two months now. FML
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, after a fight, I caught my sister rubbing my toothbrush on the inside of our grimy toilet. This is why I have trust issues. FML
Today, my housemate walked out of the bathroom with my toothbrush in his mouth and asked, "You're not one of those people who cares if someone uses their toothbrush, are you?" FML
Today, my new roommate sent me a picture of our toothbrushes bristles touching with the caption "Look! I made them kiss!" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

make sure everyone uses a different color of toothbrush.

They come in every color under the rainbow, there's no reason each family member can't have an assigned color (I'm blue)

I don't understand how this happens. Do you just see a random toothbrush in the bathroom and be like, "Hey! I'm gonna pick today to start cleaning my mouth with you even though I don't know where you came from!"

this has happened to me and my brother before. we hardly ever brushed our teeth when we were kids, so we actually lost track of which one belonged to whom.

My little brother does that. He doesn't like brushing his teeth so instead of getting a new brush he just uses whichever one is there. Pisses me off every time I catch him!

OP, different colours is part of Toothbrush Management 101 ;-) Hopefully you guys sort it out in the meantime *grin*

Be glad he didn't ask, why you changed the toothbrush he uses for scrubbing the tiles around the toilet.

So, the question is who's to blame? Did he take yours or did you take his? There must be a lonely toothbrush left waiting for its owner.

I know the thought is gross but don't most people wash their toothbrush off after each use? I do. Not that I'd want to share my toothbrush. Especially with a brother. Lol

This happened to me once...I found out that my brother was using my toothbrush even though the colors were very distinctly different...I still cringe remembering it >.
