One having bigger problems don’t make other‘s problems any smaller. Both need solving.

You can drown in an ocean or drown in a puddle, the result stays the same.

Yeah, but some of the best ways for me to have turned some of my smaller problems into non problems is the gift of perspective.

Travel, communication, and socialization have been some of the best tools for me to achieve this personally.

I don't know the toilet brush doesn't have to work two or three times a day... In fact, he works once a month at best and tends to come out clean.

Tooth brushes die so much quicker because of job related stress. It also gets the impression of being eaten every time.

...I think the tooth brush may have it worse.

I'm scared to see the bathroom where this toilet brush works.

The old folks here will remember high-flow toilets that actually fucking worked.

[–] JayleneSlide@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Am old, can confirm. Although I use composting toilets these days (live on a sailboat). Flow is non-existent.

Is monthly not a reasonable frequency to clean a bathroom?

I’m scared to see the bathroom that needs more frequent cleaning. Are people pissing on the walls?

[–] JayleneSlide@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I neaten my bathroom every day. Police the water splatters (before they become water stains), lint, soap scum, toothpaste/saliva deposits in the sink, stray hairs, wipe the bowl... And then I deep clean once a week.

I hope you don't neaten your bathroom with the toilet brush. Otherwise, your comment is fully irrelevant to this post. You just want to brag how cleanly you are.

So it just so happens I saw a framed comic at my dentist yesterday that had a toothbrush saying, “Sometimes I think I have the worst job.”

And the toilet paper responds, “Yeah right.”

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 6 points 1 month ago

The difference being that the toothbrush actually gets used.

[–] unmagical@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

Another's plight does not negate your own.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

The twist: the toothbrush is used for anal scrubbing.

[–] Derpenheim@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

Thats the butthole toothbrush

[–] lastlybutfirstly@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Pfft. Fallacy of relative privation.

And for anybody whose got pet allergies...
