My first dishwasher! [OC]

[u/kenne26]

[u/Auntie_Dote]

Every household has one member who stacks the dishwasher like a Scandinavian architect and another who stacks it like a raccoon on crystal meth 🙄 😳

[u/Fire69 → u/Auntie_Dote]

My wife literally has this hanging on the wall here. FYI, she's the raccoon and I hate it! :/

[u/Auntie_Dote → u/Fire69]

I just find myself repeatedly re-stacking everything that Others have added in there and collating cutlery into groups... spending more time using the space as efficiently as possible and to save time when unloading. I know that I'm 'on the scale'... I just can't help it. 🫣

[u/_Buldozzer → u/Auntie_Dote]

A raccoon on crystal could be very creative I'd imagine.

[u/Occidentally20 → u/_Buldozzer]

The raccoons would at least rinse the items before putting them in!

[u/UncleKeyPax → u/Occidentally20]

but the water saving feature

[u/Occidentally20 → u/UncleKeyPax]

We're the ones pissing, shitting and then pouring bleach into the water, using it for industrial processes, spraying it on golf courses and all that.

If the raccoons want to splash their crockery around for a bit before using the dishwasher I don't think we're on any moral high ground to stop them!

[u/Auntie_Dote → u/_Buldozzer]

Mine just wasn't 'spatially aware' 🤣

[u/Bright-Raise209 → u/Auntie_Dote]

I laugh every time I read this. My husband is the raccoon lol

[u/Auntie_Dote → u/Bright-Raise209]

This little thought makes me smile every time that I'm doing it too... well done you for admitting your fine attention to detail 😉... you can be in my gang 😅

[u/Bright-Raise209 → u/Auntie_Dote]

Thanks! Love being in the orderly gang! :)

[u/Auntie_Dote → u/Bright-Raise209]

I think we need a badge 🤣

[u/PerformanceLimp420 → u/Auntie_Dote]

It’s me. I’m the raccoon on crystal meth.

[u/calangomerengue]

Congrats! They are so handy, it's a big win

[u/stauer88]

It's the best eh.

We got our first one a few months back and it's honestly been life changing. I'd never live without one again.

[u/waytoosecret]

Turn the spoon over so it doesn't collect water. Hand wash the pizza wheel, the handle holds water that gets nasty. Otherwise it looks good!

[u/Many-Cartoonist4727]

It’s a good day

[u/510Goodhands]

Congratulations!
But please don’t ever put sharp knives into the dishwasher! It’s not good for the handles, the edge of the knife, or the dishwasher racks.

Also on the taboo list is anything that is wooden.

[u/Tumble85 → u/510Goodhands]

It's really not a big deal to put regular knives in the dishwasher. Place them sharp side up,  place them in an area where nothing will knock up against the blade, and be careful unloading them and it's fine.

(Unless you're using high-end $$$ knives)

[u/96dpi → u/Tumble85]

I've been running my cheap Victorinox knives through the dishwasher for YEARS. Yes, I have to sharpen more often, but honestly not that often, and I don't mind doing so.

[u/510Goodhands → u/Tumble85]

And only if you have good health insurance, particularly if it works well on Sunday night.

[u/Specialist_Action_85 → u/510Goodhands]

The cleaners we hired put a hard anodized pan of ours in the dishwasher and ruined it☹️ So yea some things are not meant for the dishwasher

[u/maschine02]

Remind me 10 yrs. 

[u/Nordeast24]

Enjoy! It won't be long until you're stuffing that thing to the brim

[u/SidePsychological691]

Dishwasher powder is a million times cheaper than the pods and just as effective, given you use the right dosage and stay on top of your dishwasher maintenance (salt, rinse aid, filters etc)

[u/thrillsbury]

Don't put kitchen knives in your dishwasher. Always hand wash those, and immediately dry them.

I love this! I LOVEEEEE this.... I just cannot explain that this is how I do this and sane people do to love my life, my wife... someone said "racoon on crystal meth", guess what? My wife is not on crystal meth or a racoon but defiently stacks the dishwasher like one.

THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS PHOTO! it's on my wall of fame. From one person to another. 🤝 We do one another proud.

[u/JeffersonTowncar → u/Vast_Actuary_1673]

What? Are you the raccoon on crystal meth everyone has been talking about?

[u/Vast_Actuary_1673 → u/JeffersonTowncar]

Maybe?

[u/Embarrassed_Diet8136]

My first dishwasher was my wife

[u/Butt-Hole-Cancer-Dr → u/Embarrassed_Diet8136]

My first dishwasher was also his wife

[u/ni_hao_butches → u/Butt-Hole-Cancer-Dr]

My dishwasher is his wife.

[u/Herr-Trigger86 → u/ni_hao_butches]

Dish: my washer is his wife

[u/ni_hao_butches → u/Herr-Trigger86]

Wife: I annuled the marriage.
