They seem struggle with the concept that the dishwasher is not a garbage disposal. They see detergent commercials with somebody stuffing plates with solid food still on it and think it's ok. Monkey-see-monkey-do.

Also stacking plates and causing twice the mess like they work at a restaurant and there is a busboy and industrial washer to clean all the greasy arse shite off both sides of a plate now instead of only one side.

Also should be a class on cooking white rice and also eggs.

Possibly the simplest thing to cook perfect every time, but also somehow gets fricked up in some way every time.

Mine can load it as she wants. But if I go to put something in there and see a sharp knife with the tip up I go nuts. She got me 1 time, won't get fooled again.

In every other aspect she's perfect and keeps the house clean enough to do surgery but damn...I don't get the dishwasher thing at all.


She wants you to pull your weight and do it. That’s why she does a bad job.

Or in other words, she thinks you are a lazy frick stick

They think it's cute (tee-hee) when they can't cook in their 20s, but they get to middle-age and it's brutal.

Theres a fine line between 'cooking' and ruining food.

Also, they never seem to grasp that if you rinse and give a cursory wipe before putting them in, the dishwasher won't smell like death from disgusting food remnants.

This is counterproductive with modern machines. Dishwashers use sensors to determine how dirty the dishes are by the state of the water during the first round of spraying - if you’ve already wiped the dishes visibly clean then it will assume they are clean and will treat them as such; if it detects a lot of debris in the water then it will give the dishes the full salvo and get them as clean as possible. If your machine smells then you’ve got a filer that’s probably in need of cleaning or a foods/solids processor issue.

We rinse everything with hot water before loading. It looks clean going in. I hurts me to picture half full pots going in to be washed.


I don't understand people that don't wash out the dishes before placing them into the dishwasher. It's nasty.

Also, in the Grinds my gears catalog, since when did manufacturers stop producing the powder in the box. Now all I find at Walmart are those expensive dishwasher pods. Even the Walmart brand is expensive.



Walmart sells Cascade powder.

Dishes are hand washed in soapy hot water, then placed in the dishwasher at our house. I don't ever want to eat at some of your homes

My teenage daughter has waged psychological warfare on me by taking this approach to most chores. She knows I am unable to “let it go”.

Methinks you’ve been cleverly hoodwinked into being in charge of dishwashing.



Yep. We got a new washer 5 years ago. I messed up my ankle back in the spring and couldn't get around for a couple of days. She loaded up the washer for the first time in those five years.

Problem was, she didn't know what to do to set it and turn it on.

I usually buy the generic Walmart brand to save money.

My wife hates it when I 'reload' the dishwasher. It's a personal affront to her, even though she'll have cups and ramekins catching water and pans layed flat keeping other items from going in. If I do it, guaranteed that it's got another 1/3 of the space available for more dishes,


If done orderly and not haphazardly.

That's what inspired this thread. Wife walks by this morning while I'm dumping a Rubbermaid full of water out in the sink and said "I think we need a new dishwasher nothing is getting clean" and I stared at her thoughtfully while my brain ran through a decision tree of how the rest of the morning would go based on which response I chose.

There's something on that second "X" chromosome that makes females crazy, devious, and brilliant all at once.

And yet men get blamed for everything...
