Did anyone watch the old '80's Sesame Street? Does anyone remember the little cartoon clip that had a boy brushing his teeth, and washing his hands all while letting the water run? Does anyone remember the fish that swam up through the pipes to pop out of the drain to yell at him to turn the water off? For years I used to believe you had to keep soap suds/toothpaste/ect. running down the drain, lest that fish think you were wasting water and swimming up to yell at you.
