Listen, I've got like three minutes of enthusiasm for this job. I'll take an item and put it where it fits. Once both racks are populated the dishwasher starts. At least there's something in there getting clean.

I've never understood why some people simply must overfill the machine, ensuring that nothing gets properly cleaned. Literally just run the machine twice. It will still use way less water than hand washing, and it will do a better job.
"Properly loaded" means the dishwasher can still do it's job while loaded to maximum capacity. Just putting stuff wherever means you run the dishwasher more frequently which wastes resources.
Absolutely, though if you have to run it twice anyway you don't have to cram it full on the first go no matter what. But I've seen some truly horrific stuff, plates and bowls just stacked on top of each other, no way for the water to get in all the crevices
Its adult tetris
If only they disappeared when you got a line
Stack them on top of a pole. Then give the bottom piece a slight nudge.
That sounds dirty.
And fun
I love my better half dearly but I way prefer being the one to load the dishwasher, otherwise it's just anarchy.
We're both really good about strategic dishwasher placement, but my wife cannot understand that both bowls and spoons get separated by size. So I put the dishes away because THEY MAKE A FUCKING SLOT FOR THE BIG SPOON AND A FUCKING SLOT FOR THE LITTLE SPOON IN THE SILVERWARE DRAWER AND IT ISN'T FOR MAKING A RANDOM CHOICE GOD DAMN IT!
Okay, I feel better now.
I stack the dishwasher like a scandinavian racoon on an architect
This exactly. I have rules. But adherence to and interpretation of said rules gets more chaotic as the dishwasher gets more full.
And neither of them empties the dishwasher
I keep two dishwashers. Then I have more room for beer and snacks in the cupboards
I don't understand. Emptying it is the more satisfying task for sure. That being said, I also just leave the clean stuff ij there until I need it or alternatively until there is enough dirty stuff to fill a load. The system is flawless.
That's not a nice thing to say about my wife.
Imagine your OTP
One time password?
If only my meth-head racoon could empty the dishwasher once in a while...
Scandinavian architect? Every item in the washer will be made out of mostly huge glass panels?
This feels like me Vs the world with my family
I'm not in a relationship but I can already tell that I'm the racoon.
Tbh I still don't know where some of the stuff is supposed to go.
I want to send this to my girlfriend but it might be too aggressive lol
