Toothpaste is for brushing your teeth, not filling the nail holes in the patchy drywall that is our economy! :-)
I helped a former girlfriend move out of her apartment years ago. I brought along a tub of spackling paste to fill the nail holes she'd left in the wall (it was even the kind that goes on pink and then dries white, which is pretty handy). She was mind=blown as she'd never seen anything like it before. I asked her how she filled nail holes and she said she used chewing gum and white-out.
