Why Didn’t I think of that?

February 15, 2010 By Paul Wagorn

Frustration often begets creativity and innovation.

I really hate having to get the very last remaining bit of toothpaste that collects up at the bottom of the tube.

Well, this new toothpaste tube (designed by Dominic Wilcox and illustrated by Clare Mallison) solves this problem by putting a cap at both ends.

Now when you (or your partner) keep squeezing from the front or middle of the tube, no need to get angry – you can simply open up the other end to get the rest out! It also does the double duty of fixing the problem of your partner gumming up one side of the tube because you can each have your own end cap.

Ingenious.

i use Youtube to watch Taylor Swift videos. I always watch movie clips on Youtube. What an awesome site. :I love watching videos online specially on Youtube. There are lots of music clips, movie clips and instructional videos on Youtube. I love em all.Actually, it's probably harder to get the last bit out, as you can't roll up the end to force the toothpaste out. You'll end up with *two* ends of unusable paste!use a twist-off cap that won't pop when squeezed.How do you stop the other end from popping off when you squeeze?So how does the factory fill it?o_qo_OMy...god!Awesomeif you're already a member.fields are required.
