I don't squeeze it, I suck on the hole.

Technically, that means you're using air pressure to squeeze the tube at every point. You're a full-spectrum psychopath.

Perfectly balanced,
as few things should be.

There's the villain's monolog I was hoping for.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

I also call that the nip of the tube.

False. Directly proportional to emptyness of tube. Start at "good," squeeze the last drop out at "evil" because you forgot to get more toothpaste at the store yesterday.

What does it say about me that I use one of those tubes that squeezes every last bit out of the tube from the end?

You've elevated conservationism to a fetish.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 3 points 2 months ago

That's too wasteful. Use a round toothbrush to squeeze the thing and your save the specialized tool resources and cost.

My wife absolutely manhandles toothpaste tubes. Just kung fu grip squeezes the middle. The tube always looks mangled.

Took this comic to realize you are supposed to squeeze as far towards the front of the tube as possible, you really can go your entire life missing the basics.

Cut the wide end of. Dip your tooth brush into opening. Moan when you do. 60% of the time, it works every time.

The colors used are a reference about how Chad invented toothpaste

Or how virgin romania stole Chad’s flag
