Extra! (3): [短い文句がある]

TOOTHPASTE!!! Why?

Today was a normal day. UNTIL THE OCCURRENCE. 

I was just completing my daily routine of pre-bedtime ablutions, (Yanno, womanly things like face cream and eye drops etc.) when I reached the final before sleep stage, tooth brushing.

This would normally go averagely well, disregarding the occasional drop of the toothbrush, and I would inhale the air of minty freshness as I drift off to sleep. BUT NO.... 'NOT TODAY' said Japan. 'Not today or for the next however-long your toothpaste lasts' continued Japan with a evil chuckle.

For my toothpaste was orange. I don't just mean the colour by the way, the contents too have a citrus flavour.





I mean, yes, I realise the packaging for this specific toothpaste is very orange oriented, but in no plane of this world did I expect this design choice to actually represent the flavour of the tooth cleaning substance inside. That would be like buying Warburtons bread and not being at all horrified when the slices tasted of bubblegum.


NO!






Tasty citrus stripes.....
Me no want...
All I know is that citrus and toothpaste do not go together. It's basically a law of life that you cannot drink orange juice after brushing, in fact I think that comes printed on children's birth certificates. 

Maybe they were trying to make the flavour more similar to that of industry strength cleaning products for extra subliminal tooth cleaning umph......






In any case I feel like I just swilled my mouth with a combination of liquidated car air freshener and after eights.

Good night all.....
