When S first moved in with me, his toothbrush was yellow, and mine was blue. Since then I've always stuck to the same color code, to avoid confusion and because, well, I admit it, I'm a creature of habit.
Buy new toothbrushes, point out to S (not one of my more scintillating conversational topics, granted) that they have a nifty thing that's supposed to polish teeth in addition to just brushing them, and conclude perkily with, "and of course there's one of each, yellow and blue!"
Blank stare.
- Ummmm... you mean you haven't always been using the yellow one?
- No. I just grab whichever one is on the left.
Some things are not meant to be shared, even in the closest of relationships. Plaque, to my mind, is one of them.
bah.

Indeed. I never share my toothbrush.
