[...] 19, 2008 by trish A while ago I asked people to leave a comment on how they believe a tube of toothpaste should properly be squeezed. I knew it would be an issue for me and my soon-to-be husband and declared that I would just keep [...]

I squeeze the tooth paste from the bottom. My husband sqeezes from the middle. We do have 2 tubes of toothpaste! But it is because he leaves toothpaste in the top which gets hard and crusty and goopy…yuck!

His big hang up is kitchen pans…yes I never would have believed it had I not witnessed it, but he is very possesive of his pans. I first noticed this when he came home and I would be cooking dinner and he would get mad about stupid things…the one common denominator was I was cooking and in his opinion I was not using the pans right. He has since bought me 3 pans that I am “approved” to use. He is lucky he didn’t give them to me as a gift. Here is the ironic thing – he has a second unused set of pans in storage!! LOL!! I never would have thought that his pans ment so much to him…and no he is not a chef and the pans cost less than $100 for the set!

too funny! We each have our own preference in brand, so… not an issue.

Wow! I never realized this was such a universal issue. I squeeze from the middle; my husband squeezes from the bottom. He occasionally comments on my inability to squeeze “correctly.” I occasionally come back with a comment about his inability to wash the dishes “correctly.”

From the bottom, but I tend to be a bit anal about stuff like that….i usually flatten it as it empties and turn the bottom up so I can just keep sqeezing from the bottom.

On a side note, have you read The Way the Crow Flies?

I’m a middle squeezer, he’s a middle squeezer too, and neither one of us cares much about how it’s done. We now have separate bathrooms and tubes of toothpaste, so it doesn’t matter anyway. I bet you’ll come up with way more important things to fight about once you’re married!!

I squeeze from the bottom. I’m not sure how hubby does it. Not only do we have separate toothpaste, we have separate bathrooms, so I never see it.

We both squeeze from the middle. I actually don’t think we have ever discusses our toothbrush habits so it’s not a big deal. The toilet paper and which it hangs though, is a whole other problem!

What an odd poll! But I’ll bite. The way I squeeze my toothpaste is oddd. I begin sqeezing from the bottom, when the tube is new; but when its about 1/4 empty, I squeeze from the middle. Then I forget and go back to squeezing from the bottom. Hey I can do that; I live alone!

We DO have our own toothpaste! He’s a middle squeezer, I’m a bottom.
