Toothpaste??? I bet you're one of them fancy pants boys who uses things like toothpaste and that deeeoderaint stuff ain't ya.
Squeeze from the bottom, it says so on the tube!
Squeeze from the middle, and don't be so uptight about toothpaste.
Who cares?
I'd rather go back to talking about TP orientation.
What say you, fellow fretters?
I'm a squeeze from the bottom of the tube kinda guy. I'm kind of a tightwad, so I want to get every last toothpaste particle out of the tube before I have to go get more.
The wife, on the other hand, grabs in the middle and gives 'er a squeeze, when we have tubed toothpaste. We are currently using this gawdawful stuff with "breath strips" in it that's supposed to taste like sour apples, but just tastes bad. Blech.

But the best way to squeeze toothpaste is with your hands.

A dab of toothpaste on your alloted one square of toilet paper would help freshen up things when you *squeeze* from the bottom. :
I pick a moon dog.
Uh...let's see....
Open toothpaste tube, lay flat on counter. Hold toothbrush near open end of tube. Ball hand up into a fist. Strike toothpaste tube squarely in the middle.
Blooz, somehow that look on your Nemo avatar seems to fit your post......
I get er done from the middle and then work up the end at a later date.

And that's exactly the look (and comment) my wife would have if I were ever to try something like that...Originally Posted by M29
Actually, I read this morning that it's the 30 anniversary of the movie Animal House, and I had a sudden Bluto Blutarsky moment there when I thought of the toothpaste thing.
I chop off the bottom on new tubes so it doesn't all collect at the bottom. Once it starts to collect at the top, I pinch off the lower half and then use the cap end.

Thats actually a big pet peeve with me. I hate it when someone in my family squeezes the toothpaste tube from the middle. IMO it makes a huge mess.

I squeeze from the middle.
Luckily my wife squeezes from the middle, too, giving her one less bathroom based habit of mine to give me grief over. :
You are all so old school!
My toothpaste is in a plastic bottle with a pump and combines a whitening agent and mouthwash with the paste. No squeezing required.
...and as it's no doubt going to come up in the course of this thread...I use a rechargable electric toothbrush. Not the kind that plays MP3's that I saw on TV this morning, but if I see one of those in a store I'm so buying one.

I'm very relieved that at least nobody has asked, "what's toothpaste." There is hope.
