Or you do constantly turn it off and on again when you need to wet/wash the brush?

Do you leave the water running whilst the toothbrush is in your mouth?

I normally just half fill a plastic cup and use that. There's more than enough to wet your brush, rinse your mouth out and wash away any flob left in the sink.
Failing that I'll turn it off after I've wet the brush until I need to rinse at the end, what's the point of leaving a tap running for 2 minutes?

I turn on the tap to fill a cup. I turn it off after that. I use the cup to wet the brush. I rinse my mouth with water from the cup after brushing and use the rest of the water in the cup to wash the brush. I turn the tap back on if I need more water. What horrible criminal leaves the tap running while brushing? Yes, I'm judging....
Honestly, I have to turn it on by the time I get to my bottom teeth. I need the noise because the sound of me scraping my teeth starts getting to me, making me gag. Only noticed this within the year but realized it's always been an issue.
Yeah. Completely the same. I resolved this with playing music on a Bluetooth speaker instead.
I felt bad having the water run.
What?
You wet your brush (or don't as some prefer), turn off the fucking water, wash your teeth, and when you're done, you clean your tooth brush with water.
How is this so hard? Why would anybody leave on the water.

The lighter I turn the water on, the louder it is so I guess I'm using less which helps me justify doing it.
Hell, no.
Last time I saw it (while on vacation in Canada), I schooled the boy who did that.

Dishwashers are supposedly more economic than washing dishes by hand.

I must confess.
I've always left it on.
In Scotland, water just isn't an issue. It's nigh unlimited. And it's also "free" for the consumer - or at least, a fixed payment with your monthly tax and no additional charge regardless of how much you use.
However, this thread may make me use my second hand to turn it off.

Yes, and it pisses me off. It's one of those habits from childhood that I haven't entirely broken.
I don't leave it running the entire time, but it does run entirely too long when I don't need water.
