Edit: LOL love the responses. You ain’t wrong…
Edit2: I posted this for giggles and have enjoyed it immensely. Thanks for the “parenting advice” (rolls eyes). My daughter is a shit show, but I wouldn’t trade her in for anything. She has three daughters, one of which is exactly like her and the two others are not. So…

Lets just say I wouldn’t eat her cooking
Neither would I. That sounds dangerous no matter how spry she is.
She needs mandatory wife training so her future husband does not suffer. /S
Dear god, no. I could have taken this exact picture and titled it “My 40 year old wife. Should I get a divorce?”
She needs mandatory me training so just in case she ends up living with me (extremely unlikely lol) or someone equally as anal about this (reasonably possible) she doesn’t “force” them to reorder the dishwasher while grumbling under their breath.
I was thinking the same, this looks well organized compared to how my wife does it, she even puts silverware on the top rack instead of in that little basket, or glasses drink side up (instead of upside down). I have talked to her about it so many times but she is incapable of doing a better job somehow (and she’s a smart, thats what really irritates me).
Is your wife also incapable of seperating trash?
she even puts silverware on the top rack instead of in that little basket
😲 Let me go tell my wife how much I love her and appreciate her dishwasher loading skills. lol
But yeah, it’s the same thing with my wife, she’s very smart, she is just incapable of using any reason when putting stuff in the dishwasher. Although at least she puts the silverware in the basket. Dear god.
Trash she’s fine with. But her other thing is also unloading the dishwasher. She gets things in the right cabinet/drawer, but they just get shoved in. It’s the same thing with the refrigerator. She opens the door, finds the biggest space, and puts whatever is in her hand right in the middle of that space. And the complains there is no room in the fridge.
This honestly looks fine. (Assuming this is before the dishwasher has run). There’s not like solid chunks of food or anything just the actual stuff that you own a dishwasher to wash off for you so you don’t have to. The configuration of the dishes is haphazard and chaotic but if you want to fit a lot of dishes it usually ends up that way. The cup and cup like vessels not being upside down is a problem but for the most part things are upside down or on their side as they should be. I want the dishwasher to wash dishes for me not the other way around. If you get the occasional dish after a cycle that hasn’t completely cleaned you have to wash it yourself, which sucks, but that doesn’t always happen so there’s a reasonable chance you won’t have to, and when it does happen, it’s still way cleaner than it was so you’re talking a cursory fix up of very few dishes. I’d take that over rinsing each and every one every time or having to hand wash half the load when there’s a lot of dishes in service of a neater stacking configuration that’s optimal but less space efficient.
The dishwasher also reduces clean water usage by a significant amount.
The problem is that ceramic and glass dishes often chip if they are in contact with each other in the dishwasher.
This is why I own plastic and metal dishes. That and I have a small child. Stitches even one time from a dropped plate cost me more than replacing all of my dishes.
Do you have a dishwasher or a rock tumbler at home?
Yes.
Ahh yes, the inclusive or. We meet again!
You can tell the people who use plastic dishware in this post.
Animals.
You lost me, can you provide some context?
Plastic dishware doesn’t break on impact with like.
Those who say this is fine seem to not be taking into account the fact of brittle materials touching like here.
Indicating they aren’t aware of the problem, indicating they don’t have brittle dishes.
Or, and this is a stretch but stay with me, their glass/ceramic dishes don’t randomly chip in the dishwasher.
Okay. Stay with me here, cause I guess we’re being contemptuous now.
You asked for context. I provided it.
I was naive to trust you were being genuine. Won’t happen again.
When my colleagues load the dishes haphazardly at work, I find I can fit several more cups, plates, and bowls by reorganizing them neatly.
I guess I should say “appears haphazard” as I don’t know if it really has been stacked with reckless abandon or of it’s a kind of organised chaos as the two tend to look very similar. When your colleagues stack the dishwasher at work, they’re adding to the load a little at a time until there’s literally no room and someone has to run it. In such an instance there’s no particular method to their madness other than fitting their one plate or one cup that they’re personally trying to deal with.
When you’re stacking a full load start to finish you’re stacking with the aim of fitting everything you have from a large load of dishes of which really don’t want to have any left out. In doing so, I at least, find that while one starts with some attempt at being organized, you’ll eventually realise that if you just slightly lift this concave object slightly up so it’s still upside down but not completely, you can squeeze this one awkward shaped small object in next to it, and this large flat but not very deep baking dish for which there is now no room on the bottom shelf will juuust fit if I kind of wedge diagonally a little and over the top some cups and small objects which hopefully will be small enough that some water can get between them and spray up and clean the baking dish. In the end it it can look like you put no thought in to it all but you know that you tesselated a 3d puzzle quite nimbly to squash the maximum possible number of dishes in there and then more often than not, despite all the fretting that certain types have over correct stacking, it ends up coming out much the same as when it’s a lightly stacked load with optimal spacing. It definitely sometimes doesn’t work out that way, but even then, in the absolute worst case scenarios where several dishes, not just one or two, didn’t get all the way clean, you need only then unstack those that did clean fully and the remainders are already stacked ready for another cycle right away or to wait til later to make a fuller but hopefully not as full load.
Arranging dishes in the dishwasher neatly is only for when there are a lot of dishes that wouldn’t fit otherwise. If there are only a couple of dishes, then it’s whatever, as long as they get clean, it doesn’t matter.
I would encourage you to be more considerate: your daughter is an adult, with her own thoughts and feelings, and her own family. If I were her, I would certainly not appreciate if one of my parent tried to shame me in front of strangers on the Internet over how I load my dishes and threatening to disown me for it, even “as a joke”.
You’re doing just great at shaming yourself to strangers on the internet. Keep it up.
Am I married to your daughter?
I have created a monster.
The woman I married stuffed the dishwasher like that. Just tossed stuff in, unrinsed. Wherever it would fit and still allow the drawers to close.
I had to clean out the filter twice in one month and asked her to rinse. Bowls would turn over and fill with nasty water, so I asked her to stack them in such a way so they wouldn’t.
The woman I’m married to now has a fucking system. I don’t fully know it and I dare not do it wrong. Meal prep bowls go on top, lids, on the bottom. Forks and spoons have a very specific place and so help you God if you put the sauce pan in the wrong orientation.
Fuckin hell I love that woman
Pre rinsing actually makes the dishwasher do a worse job, a big part of the dishwasher detergent is to latch on to dirt and grime so when the water sprayer comes it can more easily clean it off
If you prerinse there’s a lot less surface area for the detergent to do it’s job. You’re supposed to clean the filter about once a month, so twice isn’t too unusual.
HOWEVER that being said
Just tossed stuff in,
unrinsed. Wherever it would fit and still allow the drawers to close.That’s the unforgivable part
I’m mostly concerned with the large particles of food that couldn’t make it through the filter and just clogged it up. Dishes aren’t going in even remotely clean.
Why would you put clean dishes in the dishwasher?
Why does the guy at the automatic car wash hit my car with a pressurized hose before entering?
Beacuse they are wasting water? That doesn’t happen where I live.
Ah, if they’re large enough to be scrapeable, like beans or pasta, then absolutely scrape into the trashcan/garbage disposal.
But rinsing just takes away too much, I’ve made one exception though and that’s with spaghetti, idk what it is maybe the combination of tomato sauce and pasta but if I don’t rinse in that situation everything is just nasty after the cycle
Or am I?
My wife does this, and I’m just like, “…wtf is your problem?”
That’ll show her…
I’m shitty at housework but thankfully my parents never thought of disowning me…that I know of.
Exactly the people.who should be made to do manual.labor
Or just educate her.
These are the kinds of people who go on the Internet and claim that dishwashers don’t work very well.
When I was 23 I moved into a sharehouse that had a dishwasher, I lived there over a year before I saw it, it had a false cabinet so it blended in. I’d always just washed my dishes in the sink and I keep all my dishes, cutlery and pans separate in a tub in the pantry because I have allergies. I’d never used a dishwasher before.
I googled how to use a dishwasher because I didn’t want to be the 20 year old that can’t do basic chores. I read the user manual and looked for the filters and catchment drains. They were filthy so I cleaned them, then followed the stacking guide in the user manual and ran it with a full load of my housemates dishes.
I was very impressed with how clean they came out.
I mentioned it to a housemate who found it very amusing I’d only just discovered the dishwasher, he warned me that it was old and broken and not a very good dishwasher so the few housemates that use it were actually talking about splitting the cost of a replacement if I wanted to get in on it.
Why? When the dishwasher was working perfectly.
All 7 of my housemates flooded into the kitchen to assess the cleanliness of the dishes because no one believed me that the dishwasher worked.
Turns out in the 7 years the house had been used for student housing since the landlords son took over as head tenant, not a single one of the rotating cast of 8 housemates had ever cleaned the secondary catchment filter, and only rarely did someone remember to clean the main filter.
Turns out the dishwasher works great when you remove the months worth of old rotten corn building up in the filter, and drain off the 7 years of muck that’s blocking the greywater outlet flow.
My housemates will still say I stack the dishwasher like a sociopath, but I learned from the user manual so I don’t care, the dishes are clean.
Jon Richardson would probably say yes

I side with Jon 100%, and I do 100% of the dish washing.
But unlike Jon, I’m not married to an absolute head case. He knew what he was getting into.
I’ve never watched his show so only knew of Lucy Beaumont through taskmaster and headcase is what came to mind with how insane some of the things she said was.
We’ve been watching a bunch of British panel shows for years, so we knew she definitely was a character. But taskmaster definitely proved how much of a headcase she really is. She really surprised me that she made it to adulthood.
I’ve woken my wife up giggling at this clip more than twice.
It isn’t a problem if it’s a light load.
A light load.
I’m behind him 100% on this skit.
A light load
Why does my wife hate me with such a passion?
A light load.
That guy’s delightful.
Where problem?
Op is the problem. They want to punish instead of teach.
Sir/maam, you’ve raised a Psychopath.

Have you considered sitting down with them and savagely beating them?

That is why you only hit them with an orange in a tubesock on the back and thighs, won’t damage those organs and will show them who is boss; plus you can juice that behavior correction citrus and get some vitamin c after.
We need an Onion episode… Oh wait, here’s one:
