Roger: Whatcha doing?
Jason: Sterilizing Paige's toothbrush. I saw Quincy chewing on it and was worried about the germs.
Roger: That's considerate of you.
Jason: Thanks. Here you go, buddy. Now it's safe.
Question…-Has anyone else ever heard of this saying… “If a thief breaks into your house and finds nothing good to steal, the thief will pee/crap (anywhere) in you house so that his next job will find something better to steal”.
Very unlikely that Quincy and Paige have germs that can affect each other. Quincy has germs that live in lizards. Paige has germs that live in Paige. It is rare to find that germs that can live in both. This is why you don’t get sick when your dog licks you on the mouth.
I would not try this with a Komodo Dragon. It used to be believed that their saliva contained death-dealing bacteria. Now it is believed that a venom is the culprit
This from a NatGeo article:His earlier research had shown that other lizard species—such as iguanas, legless lizards, and monitor lizards—are also venomous. In fact, Fry estimates that close to a hundred of the more than 5,000 known lizard species use venom
Bacteria, venom; I don’t care. I’ll just pass on sharing my toothbrush with a lizard.

Paige, you’d better buy a big stash of toothbrushes and hide them where you only know the hiding place.

There was a Seinfeld episode where Jerry accidently drops his girlfreind’s toothbrush in the toilet – very funny.

Of course Jason would be concerned about Quincy’s health and not his sister.
