Several years ago I had a cat that needed opthalmic ointment for one of his eyes. One time, I was getting ready to administer it to him, and, at the last second, I realized that I accidentally grabbed a small tube of super glue!! They were packaged similarly, and the medicine and the glue looked the same. When I think of that incident, even to this day, I breathe a sigh of relief that I caught myself at the last second.
Think he needs new glasses if he comes that close to brushing his teeth with hemorrhoid cream or………he needs to put them farther apart in his medicine cabinet ! ! !
My first MIL was visiting and as I passed teh bathroom, she mentioned we had the worst tasting toothpaste she had ever encountered. I ask her what she used and she held up my tube of VO5 hair cream. I managed to stiffle my laugh as I pointed it out to her. Her reply, "Well no wonder it tasted awful!
I seem to remember reading the ingredient label on a tube of Preparation H hemorrhoid ointment when I was a kid. It stated that the active ingredient was shark oil.

Or what almost happened to me: a similar shaped and colored tube of spermacidal jelly.

As for me, I now turn on all the bathroom lights to brush my teeth. Several times I nearly put zinc ointment on my tooth brush.

“Holly Daze?” With that name and subject (hemorrhoid cream, really?), I think the strip’s been pranked.

When I was a kid, I came about that close with a tube of Brylcream.

I’ll never keep ear-drops anywhere near eye-drops again. Toothpaste belongs elsewhere from all other ointments. It’s soap, put it with that.

Wake up good and well before you apply anything! And I heard of a woman who super glued her eyes shut.

I once brushed my teeth with cortisone cream, which was bad enough.

If the plugger exercised, ate properly, and lived a healthy lifestyle he would not need the hemorrhoid cream. But then, he would not be a plugger.
