Differences discovered
I was flossing a few weeks back (not the LAST time, thank you). Derrick looked over at me in amazement. "You floss AFTER you brush?"
Apparently he was raised to floss first, then brush his teeth. I remember learning to brush, then floss.
These are the exciting things of living together.

Just like when I found out my BF shaves BEFORE he showers. I'm like what the hell?

The fun part of loving together is finding out all the ways other people do things that are wrong. Like folding towels. Obviously there's a right way and a wrong way, and many other people do it wrong (ie. not my way.) Frustrating isn't it? ;) Fortunately Brian flosses correctly (uh...before brushing) :)

G, you pull our legs, no?

Hmm. I was raised to floss WHILE I brushed. Eh. To each their own I suppose.

Mouthwash, brush, rinse, floss, mouthwash, rinse.
That's how I do it. Obviously, Derrick wasn't raised right.

I floss, then brush, then mouthwash.

Well, when you're single, like I am... It doesn't matter which you do first because there's no one around to notice...
The tree falling in the forest phenomenon.
Ya know?

This is like the toilet roll thing- which side up? I was taught- floss, brush, mouthwash, rinse in between each.

T.P. - Up and over
Floss, brush, rinse, lysterine.
Shave then shower.

What is this flossing of which you speak? Is it like, a gay man thing? Educate me, teacher man.

Flossing? What's that?

Yes, it's amazing how we all have our little idiosyncrasies and learn (and sometimes are amused by) each other's when we live together.

I'm with Lee all the way, except for the last line:
T.P. - Up and over
Floss, brush, rinse, mouthwash
Shower then shave
(so the hair follicles can soften up in the shower)

interdental brush, floss, brush, mouthwash
shave IN the shower

If you can work in flogging into your dental routine, then it's all good.
Wait, you said flossing?

Per the eerily-calmly-voiced dental hygienist who cleaned my teeth two days ago, one ought to floss, then brush. (Who knew? I'd been doing the reverse lo these many years!)
