This Is The Type Of Person You Are, Based On Your Toothpaste

Take it from the bathroom cabinet snooper, I think I've got this science down.

This Is The Type Of Person You Are, Based On Your Toothpaste
Sam Frost

I am that person. The kind who, when visiting for the first time, snoops the hell out of your bathroom. Are you judging me? You can tell a lot by a person by their bathroom cabinet.

I can see if you're the kind of person that spends too much money on tampons just because they come in bright casing, whether or not you're going to get gum disease based off the presence or lack of floss, etc. Ah, I see you have a bottle of Beano, so that's what the smell has been all night. One thing I have found to be true is that I can pretty much nail the kind of person you are based on your toothpaste.

Allow me to elaborate.

1. Sensodyne.

You have a stick up your ass and enjoy micromanaging but have your life pulled together. You don't really go with the flow, it's either your way or the highway. However, that's only because "your way" usually seems to lead to good decisions.

2. Two-step toothpaste.

Oh my god. If I see this in your cabinet, no tea, no shade, but I am leaving immediately. You are high maintenance and have too much time on your hands. You don't trust easily and insist on doing things yourself rather than being a team player — just like you don't trust the "all in one" toothpaste that claims it will both whiten and clean your teeth.

3. Crest.

You're getting by, doing your thing, taking life as it is and learning from it. You may not have all of your stuff in order but you're getting there. You don't stress the small stuff too much but have some loose ends in life.

4. Colgate.

You've pretty much got it together. You have your life in line, probably have a 401k, if I check in your fridge you probably have kale and grilled chicken prepped and ready to go. You're kind of just your Average Joe, but just a step up. You're humble, but you have definitely found balance and incorporate working hard and playing hard in your weekly routine.

5. Cartoon toothpaste.


I'm concerned. You need to leave the past in the past and grow up, yes I agree the goofy SpongeBob face is fun to look at in the bathroom, but given that your toothpaste is bubblegum flavored and safe to swallow, I'm going to assume you still spend all day on Club Penguin. Though these are Colgate brand, #4 in no way applies.

6. Dollar Store General Brand Toothpaste.

There are two outcomes for this. You're either in college or you're very sensible. If you're in college, you're a hard worker and don't have the time or energy to spend time analyzing the back of toothpaste boxes in Fred Meyer. Grab, go, spend a dollar, and get back home to continue the grind. If, however, you're not in college, you understand the value of your dollar— obviously. You're the kind of friend who still goes out and have fun but is dependable to give you that honest piece of advice that, no, you really shouldn't spend that much on a sweater. Every person needs a Dollar Store toothpaste friend.

7. A ton of mini toothpaste bottles.

So you're a freeloader but I am HERE FOR IT. If I see this in the cabinet, we're going to be best friends because I can see that your life is just as messy as mine, but we're just both trying our best to scrape what we can out of the small things in life. Like dentist appointments — silver lining? Free toothpaste. You probably go to Costco on an empty stomach and leave with nothing but a belly of free samples. You're funny, down to earth, and unapologetic about your ways.

8. Aquafresh.

You are well-versed in US history and definitely spend a majority of your nights watching Jeopardy. You're sophisticated but not snobby about it. You also don't sway anywhere past the spice level of whole wheat bread given that winter-fresh mint is too intense for you, leaving you to choose this calmer flavor.

9. Baking soda.

We get it. You're zero-wastevegan environmentalist. You also are a stoner and love to talk about aliens and the unknown. You are most likely from the Pacific Northwest, use all natural deodorant that doesn't actually work, and spend days hiking on a quest to become one with mother nature.

10. Charcoal toothpaste.

You spend hours debating Instagram captions and spend way too long in the morning making that "messy bun" look effortless yet perfect. You most likely have posted three SnapChat stories, an Instagram of a before and after, and in extreme cases went on Facebook live while brushing with charcoal, just so people know you are following trends. You are what some may call "basic," but it's not to be taken in a bad way; you're just following the ebb and flow of social media. Though you probably are annoying people with your dental hygiene posts.

10. White elephant-type flavored toothpaste.

You're funny, but in the "I only talk about farts and poop" kind of way. You're fun to hang out with for about an hour and then I'm annoyed. You most likely are still in the phase where all of your tech accessories and school supplies are decorated with mustaches. You also probably overuse meme jokes that were old two months ago.

11. Marvis.

Dude. You are BOUJIE. I am a little intimidated by your level of class, but am also totally in admiration of it. You most likely make six figures a year, hand out edible arrangements for holiday gifts, and have all-white furniture that somehow manages to always be clean. You are like Maryl Streep in "The Devil Wears Prada" — a boss and straight goals.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
