It's come to this...

They've cheaped out on the tooth paste tube.

It used to have the shape-holding aluminum liner, now it's just white plastic tube.

They have been like that over here for decades.
I'm guessing that it is just because they are easier to recycle.

TP4 why were you cutting up your toothpaste tubes?
How did you know there was an aluminum liner?
How did you know without cutting it open that something was different? or do you just cut open all your toothpaste tubes?
One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen, Seventeen, Eighteen, Nineteen, Twenty... Yeah that seems about right.

No, but cuz Tp4's p00rt1tude is truly @ 150%, he must recover all the paste that's still in the tube after he gets to the end. There's usually a good 10 days worth of brushing left in the tube, if you routinely use ~pea-sized amount each session.

Tp4's p00rt1tude


This from the guy who once referred to a $1500 call girl as "mid-grade" ....
"We are on the precipice of signing an agreement to advance talks with Iran that preserves the good parts of former President Barack Obama’s Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) while amplifying its flaws.
Mr. Obama came to an agreement that did not involve America’s most precious treasure, the lives and limbs of our soldiers.  The 1.7 billion dollars of frozen Iranian assets released by Obama pales in comparison to the 300 billion being floated as a rebuilding fund.
So far, speculation that Iran will be free in the future to continue its nuclear program is the opposite of Trump’s stated goal for the war and in direct opposition to what Mr. Obama negotiated.

That comment is relative to reference costs, not Tp4's expense capacity.
