    It’s not toothpaste and it’s not supposed to replace toothpaste.
    But I can get people getting tricked by it.

      My gums hurt without looking at this.

      Just kidding. My gums are one of the few things that don’t hurt.

        Because it’s so fucking impressive from a technical level.

        John Kricfalusi is insane (and a groomer). He actually got fired from Ren and Stimpy for two reasons. The first being “creative differences” (read: dude, why are you putting so much sex and shock humor into this kids’ cartoon?), and the second being a failure to meet deadlines.

        That failure to meet deadlines was due to the fact that he would make animators work for days on just a few frames. If it didn’t look exactly right, if one line was off about it, it got sent back and redone.

        I don’t really think R&S is the funniest show, and they certainly go out of their way to make you not want to look at it, but fuck it is gorgeous from a technical standpoint.

        When I was a young teenager, I turned on the telly to Nickelodeon and they were showing an episode of Ren & Stimpy.
        The scene I turned the TV on to involved him grating the skin off his arm, followed by him pouring salt into the open wound.

        Absolutely mad show, I have always wondered the same lol.

    Like, does it actually just have candy inside, or is it regular toothpaste with a candy flavour?

    9 out of 10 dentists agree: Cha-ching!

    The tenth was busy asking you a question that cannot possibly be answered in a meaningful way while your mouth is propped open like that.
