TSA made me do disgusting things

So I just flew back from Utah on Sunday. When I unpacked my bags on Monday morning, I found a nice little card from the TSA, ever so courteously telling me that my bags had been inspected. I didn't think anything of it, as I'm used to having the TSA poke me, prod me, make me take my clothes off in public, shoot puffs of air at me, wave weird looking magical wands at me, and so on.

As I pulled out the ziploc that had my toiletries in it to brush my teeth, I noticed that there was a hole in the baggie. I didn't think anything of it, so I went to brush my teeth. As I started to brush my teeth, I realized, "That's not what my toothbrush normally tastes like!" Apparently my toothbrush had fallen out of the bag and sat on my waders, which were still damp from fishing a few days before, which had infused stank wader smell/taste into my toothbrush. These waders are 6+ years old now, and any of you who fish know what old waders smell like. Can you say tom cat?

So if any of you are in the market for a fairly new toothbrush, let me know. I'll give you a good deal.
