Am I the only person who is totally grossed out by striped toothpaste? Particularly that awful red and blue and white striped one. I just can't put it in my mouth. It makes me wanna hurl.

You are not the only one. White is good , green is fine ...at least it is the color of mint but red, white and blue is just wrong and weirdly gross.
gel toothpaste grosses me out - I require paste!
Ooh! I forgot about this thread. I have one. Oliver (my dog) has recently discovered the bathroom trash can. He has thus discovered my used tampons. And chewed them. And strew them about the house. :( Gross.

My dog Tess use to do this but she would swallo them too...although we didn't know it until she started acting ill and then would throw up...and it would be in it! blech!

I totally freaked out and got upset, but my boyfriend said dogs do it all the time (and was strangely calm about the mess). You kind of just made me feel better about it! I hope he doesn't start eating them... :o

Thanks, pals. I feel better now.
Dh did get some white paste with little white-on-white "stars" in it. It's OK but I don't care for the taste.
My cat used to steal used Q-tips out of the bathroom wastebin and eat them.
He would also sometimes be seen racing across the apartment with one of my bras in his mouth that he had snagged out of the laundry basket. Nothing else, just bras. Go figure.
I was told that he was weaned too early, maybe he had a boob fixation.
Uncle Harry (my dog, not my uncle) pulls my dirty underwear out of the hamper and suckles on them.....so gross!
Oliver is also in love with bras and dirty underwear. He's chewed up my $60 bra so bad that the underwires poke out and stab me, and I don't have any thread or needles to fix it--I really need to do this! He also loves dirty underwear. Ew. Dogs can be gross.
VeganRun, seeing your name in conjunction with the thread "Reasons to be grossed out" made me think of this one- a coworker ran the Boston Marathon Monday, and one of his toenails got pushed back underneath the skin. He said it was getting all infected and was killing him last night so he cut the surrounding toe skin off with a razor blade.
:P
secondbase pooped in a bucket a few times, just sayin

Sounds like a good reason to get a diva cup! :)

I knowwww! I wanted to get one 2 months ago, but I couldn't decide before my period showed up, and now I need to use up this box of tampons. But before this one runs out I will make a decision. Promise. I was all set to get the Diva, then I saw there were a bunch of other brands and I freaked out and couldn't make a decision.
That toenail sounds painful! I've been lucky and never had toenail problems associated with my running.

this does not surprise me at all. When I was young I discovered that my cat, Sherri, loved the taste of ear wax (don't ask me how I discovered this I can't remember).
When we got Gary I mentioned this to N and so he tried letting Gary lick earwax off his finger and she loves it! Sometimes I wake up to find her licking my ear. I pretend it's coz she loves me but I know it's the earwax she really loves.
Not that this is that gross, but I bought the cherry-flavored prunes that VeganRun mentioned, and my daughter ate almost the whole bag. She's a pretty regular kid, but she's gone a half a dozen times or so this evening. My house reeks.
So... this might be rather disturbing, but, here goes...
When animals die or are euthanized at a veterinary hospital, they are kept in a freezer until the cremation service can come pick them up (they are cremated, or "rendered," whether or not the guardian chooses to get the ashes back). I'm not sure how much it costs for the service to come around, but basically it was seldom enough that we had an extra deep freezer in the back (actually outside the building, against the wall). Because of its placement, and because no one went back there except to deal with the freezer (the back faced a freeway), no one noticed that the freezer had broken for... days. Finally one of the techs noticed a weird smell in the exam room that connected to the back, and found that there were many bodies decomposing. On top of this, there were no gaps around the building, and no vehicle access to the back. So when the cremation service came, they had to bring the bodies through the entire hospital (in bags, though). It was the worst smell ever, and just would not go away. Most of the staff hid in the surgery/isolation area to get away from it, but guess who was the only receptionist stuck in the front (right by the path of the freezer bags) that day? Yeah.
Fortunately, we didn't have any appointments until later that evening. I don't know what we would have done otherwise.
The techs who had to empty the freezer would only say "there were THINGS in there." I can only imagine...
:wow:
Oh fb. Terrible. You're a tough chick for doing it. Nobody else could have. That's gross, but really sad, too.
When we've had our doggies put down (2 in my life), we bring them back to our house and bury them. But I guess if you live in the city you can't do that.
ha, we did at our old house. some people want to have their pet's ashes though, and i don't think it's too expensive since they do it anyway. the back freezer were all the pets whose owners did not want the ashes back; we had a separate freezer for the others (which was inside, and didn't fail), only because the back freezer was waaay bigger, and most people don't want the ashes.
