I very often take a cup of coffee into the bathroom with me on Sunday mornings while I read the paper. Never thought much about it though.
I witnessed something pretty weird two weeks ago though...
I was taking a leak in a roadside mini-mart and there was some guy brushing his teeth at the sink. I heard something hit the floor and sure enough, it was his toothbrush. He picked it up, rinsed it off, and commenced brushing again. I almost puked on my shoes!
I've left pocket combs on restroom floors before when I've dropped them. I wouldn't wash and re-use a comb let alone a toothbrush!
