When toothpaste first became public…

Updated on
When toothpaste first became public, not too many people knew about it. So when somebody was caught brushing their teeth, people panicked, assuming that person had rabies, therefore immediately rushing them to the institution.
 
To prevent cavities and also being taken to the institution, tooth brushers donned a toothpaste box on their head. Soon after, men especially became more trustful and very attracted to women who wore toothpaste boxes on their head.
 
This is how the well known phrase: “Hey, toothpaste head” became a compliment, and led to the “Toothpaste head” baby boomers.

Prehistoric music record

Updated on

A music record made of stone, made by a Cro-Magnon was recently discovered. The record could not be played because it requires a dodo bird’s beak to be used as a needle, but its lyrics etched in stone have also been recovered.

Partially translated, the song is about a man losing his wife to a Neanderthal, and his mother nagging him to get a job at the new wheel factory, instead of wasting his life on being a musician.

Since there were no cities back then, experts determine this to be the first country music song, which the artist named “The Ballad of Fred Flinstone”.
