Toothpicks...
I have to say, I'm NOT a big fan of toothpicks.
I mean, I understand the purpose they serve. Having food lodged between your teeth is not only an unpleasant sight but can be annoying and sometimes painful.
But what is the purpose behind SUCKING on a toothpick?
If you need to use a toothpick, I ask that you do it in private. Nobody wants to see you in action of digging shit out of your teeth. If you can't obtain the goal of getting the stuff out in a timely manner (4 seconds should be long enough), then PLEASE go to the rest room and take care of your business.
Today, I actually saw a guy walking down the street with a toothpick behind his ear! Do you think it's in case of a toothpick emergency, he has one "on hand"? It was BEHIND HIS EAR! The thought of that toothpick covered in ear wax makes me want to barf in my mouth.
I look at it this way: Qtips serve a purpose. They should be used to clean out your nose and ears. But you don't see people walking around town with a Qtip sticking out of their ear!
At what point did society deem it acceptable to support this toothpick craze?
What's your point of view on the toothpick? Am I being overly crass on this subject?
I think everyone should join the Just Say No To Toothpicks campaign. Think of all the trees we'll save!
Go floss America!
I don't know who this is; just some poor guy proving my point:

You really should have gotten some sort of photo or video fo that shitz. You could sell that story. Ripleys Believe It Or Not!
Was it always in the same ear? Or did he rotate?
eww.
... I don't think anyone really wants to see that. It was a few years ago (I was in University then) but yeah. We believed it was the same Q-tip day in, day out and it was just getting ::surpresses vomit:: filthier and filthier.
It seriously looked like he worked in a mine all day but as far as I know, we don't have any mines in our area.
I also can agree with you on that I do not want to see anyone picking food out of their teeth. I once saw a guy sitting across the table from me use a toothpick to pull some food out of his teeth, he then looked at the food on the end of the toothpick and put it in his mouth and ate it! I know maybe I am the one over reacting but I think that once food leaves your mouth it should not go back in. Just seems nasty.
