There are plenty of debates currently going on in this country, but there is one debate that continues to put a huge barrier between people. And I think you know what we’re talking about: is it better to wet your toothbrush before you apply toothpaste or after?
This heated debate all kicked off when a Twitter user posed this question:
do y’all wet the toothbrush first, or put toothpaste on first ?

Now of course this question has been asked many times in the past, but now the debate has been brought up again.
Personally, since you’re all eager to know about my personal hygiene routine, I enjoy wetting my toothbrush first so the toothpaste doesn’t slip off a dry brush. See? I can be bright sometimes. Now if only someone can convince my mom that I’m bright.
Anyway, this is what Twitter thinks of this debate.
I wet the toothbrush but I squeeze the toothpaste on my tongue.

But why wet it first? Wetting it after does the same thing plus wetting first makes the toothpaste slippery when you put it on

Nah I always wet it with hot water because germs, then with cold, then the toothpaste then water again. No one wants a dry toothbrush.
