Toilet Germs and Your Toothbrush

[AR-fdkt]

Because of this video, I have not flushed a toilet in years without first closing the lid

I watched this once when I was in 5th grade and I haven't flushed a toilet without the lid closed since. I'm an adult now.

This is important information. The canned laughter made it seem like a joke. I worry that the average viewer would not take this seriously.

My friends think I'm crazy for throwing my tooth brushes out if I forget to hide it when they come over and use my bathroom. One friend who knows of my concern even said "oh don't worry I just peed". Like oh you only pissed on my toothbrush? Oh well that's fine.

When I was stationed in Okinawa Japan mid 90s I lived in a 3 bedroom house downtown and the hallway had two doors along it. One had a sign in English and Japanese "Bathroom", and inside was a 4 foot deep stainless steel bathtub big enough for 2 people inside a ceramic tiled area with a brass drain for whatever water splashed out of the tub, also there was a combination washer dryer machine that both washed and then dried the clothes inside it, (you did not have to remove clothes from one part and put them in the other part, it was one machine that did it all, lots of buttons on it in Japanese and I had ask the Japanese lady at the housing agency explain them and I made labels in English the buttons), and a large sink and mirror. . The second door was labeled "Toilet" and inside was a western style commode and a small sink. Other Japanese homes and apartments also had separate bathrooms and toilets.

Yeah! I either keep my toothbrushes covered or in a drawer. In addition to this, I ALWAYS put the lid on the toilet seat down, BEFORE I flush! The thought of putting a contaminated toothbrush in my mouth is a turn-off.

And the fist thing i did after this was say we need new toothbrushes

I like how they added humour to this digusting ..but interesting topic.

This makes me question more my we brush our teeth on the same place as we shit

Maintenance didn't watch this video.

Now everyone in our apartment tested positive for covid due to the apartment building having a sewage backup and one person in the building had covid.

Now everyone who had backed up sewage in their toilet, and maintenance flushed with the lid open so they could watch....

Has tested positive for covid.

Yay. /Sarcasm

I love my mom for teaching me to store my toothbrush inside the mirror drawer. Honestly I find the fake laugh hilarious!

[Superdude]

Even more reasons to do business in my neighbors backyard!

Thank you!! I just sent to one of my kid's friend who leaves the seat up. Bet she won't anymore!

This video should be included in the education since kindergarten

This helpful video can change one's habit.

My sons mom saw something like this years ago and became positively obsessed with shielding her toothbrush. She won’t drink out of plastic either, only glass. Same sort of deal I think. If we start microscopically evaluating our world I think it would lead to total debilitation.

I need another of these with a closed lid.

[BawsStatus-xw]

Every time my boyfriend takes a shit with my make up dresser open behind him … I just wanna cry for my make up brushes that I had already recently cleaned.😂😭

[hofficalz]

It drives me insane my mother doesn't close the lid when she flushes even though the cabinet where all the toothbrushes etc are is right next to the toilet AND OPEN

I cant forget the tragic sweet innocent tootbrush
