To think these domestic things make sense and I’m not being lazy?

Interesting! But both types of eggs we buy say to refrigerate after purchase. Both are organic and from Sainsbury's.

Carrots need peeling as well as 'top and tailing' even if you buy organic! The dishwasher thing is just bonkers, if you have so few dishes that you can have both clean and dirty in the machine at the same time you should possibly be washing up by hand? 🙄As for the clothes on the airer fiasco, I could maybe understand it with perhaps socks and underwear but surely some of your actual clothes need drying on hangers or god forbid, ironing (😱) ? Again though, maybe you have as few clothes as you do dishes?! 🤔

That sounds like a lot of faff. Why not empty a clean dishwasher and re-load during the day? Then you only need one. Or just wash up as you go, of course, the way I was taught to cook e.g. you wash the bowl and knives etc you used for pastry whilst pastry is in the oven and after you have peeled the potatoes, so that, cooking ready, there is no washing up to do (or minimal).

My thoughts exactly, especially the top!

Also, once say a load of clothing is washed and dried, I need the clothes horse free to then put different laundry on eg sheets. I wouldn't have worn all the clothes by the time I'm doing a different load of laundry.

This is where the ‘sticking it all in a pile and ignoring it’ part of the plan comes in 😀

I wouldn't say lazy per se in the sense that you do you, but yes I do think it's weird! The carrots - I don't think the ends just snap off very easily without wasting quite a bit but I also chop the other end (ie the fat end) off and chop them up rather than cooking whole. The dishwasher I actually do think is quite lazy and don't get how that even works - the dirty stuff would mix in with the clean stuff which I don't like the sound of. The clothing - well fine but personally I wouldn't like the mess. Also, once say a load of clothing is washed and dried, I need the clothes horse free to then put different laundry on eg sheets. I wouldn't have worn all the clothes by the time I'm doing a different load of laundry.

I wouldn’t put pots or pans in the dishwasher, particularly non-stick, as it takes the coating off.

Hmmm no, the one that has clean stuff in, gets used slowly. As those items are dirtied they go in the other dishwasher. When the dirtied dishwasher is full it goes on. I doubt theres much in the clean dishwasher by the time the dirtied one goes on.
Now the dirtied one is clean you start slowly using clean stuff and as its dirtied it goes in the other dishwasher.

This.

Basic hygiene, common sense and aesthetics really. Plus I don't want to live like a pig. A cleaner once commented how everything in our house had its place and it is by no means a show house. Not sure what houses she had been cleaning. Houses like OP's, I guess 😱

What people do in the privacy of their own homes is their business. Does not make them easy to live with though.

Same here. I thought we were the only family who preferred washing dishes by hand. We only use the dishwasher when we have had guests over and have massive washing up to do.

Don’t stress love, you just described my life.

We don’t empty the dishwasher- we put dirty things on the draining board as we use them, then once all the clean ones are used straight from the dishwasher and it’s empty, we put the dirty ones in. Dishwasher is run once/twice a day.

Don't put clothes away- wash and dry and wear off the dryer (or the folded pile next to the dryer) what would be gained by carrying clean washing up 2 flights of stairs and putting it in a cupboard, just to take them out and wear them again?

Stuff that has to be done (hoovering, cleaning the loo, wiping the sides etc) gets done but if it’s done for appearance or convention rather than for any actual functionality then I can’t be arsed.

I don’t care if someone snaps carrots by hand (although I don’t see the logic in it) but if I was in someone’s home and I became aware that they were using clean dishes directly from the machine and replacing dirty ones alongside them, yes, that would make me uncomfortable. Some things are far enough outside of what’s normal as to make you uncomfortable, even if it’s only a small thing. Likewise if your clothes lived on permanent display on airers. I’ve never met anyone who does this and if I did it I sure as hell wouldn’t be expecting visitors!

That only works if you empty dishwasher 1 as soon as it has finished. Otherwise what you've got is one dishwasher working and the other half-full of clean dishes.

I've been trying to decide if the comment replies on this thread are a joke and this one made me laugh out loud. You would feel "very uncomfortable" around someone having washing hanging up in their spare room and who snaps rather than cuts carrots? Have you literally never left your own house?

OP, these are the mildest, least-concerning quirks I could imagine. If it works for you, great - as others have pointed out I don't understand how you keep clean and dirty separate in the dishwasher but other than that you do you.

Completely agree, if my kitchen could accommodate 2 dishwashers, I'd have them in a heartbeat.
I love the idea.

It takes minutes to use a knife on the carrots. It takes minutes to unload a dishwasher. Same with clothes. Yes, you are being lazy.

Carrots: you chop them to make all pieces evenly-sized so they will cook at the same rate and look presentable on the plate.
Dishwasher: you empty it BEFORE putting dirty items so that the clean items are kept hygienically separate from the dirty items and therefore avoid food poisoning.
Clothes: you have wardrobes, drawers and cupboards for a reason (unless you don’t own any) so use them to put your neatly folded (or even, gasp, ironed) clean clothes away to protect them from dust, sunlight and household odours.
Not understanding these basics is worrying, though - do you not care how your dinner looks, how to avoid food poisoning and how your clothes look?
I voted YABU!

Same, I wash by hand, hate dishwashers, you can smell the detergent off everything and the crockery feels weird. You have to rinse the items before they go in, half them aren't washed properly unless you use a very hot wash and strong detergent and you still have to empty and put away.
Far quicker to wash by hand.

It takes literally minutes, so I can't see how it is a waste of my time - and even if it was I have plenty of available time! I put them in the sink, fill it with very hot water, go back and put them on a draining cloth, then leave them until they are ready to put away.

I hate dishwashers.

Many people are curious as to how you deal with the top of the carrot. Please end our confusion.
As for the other stuff, I agree, and I'm sure you have systems that get around the problems being raised by the skeptics.

I know a man (with money) who had 2 dishwashers installed in his kitchen for similar logic. He removes clean dishes as he needs them from one dishwasher and once used he puts them in the other, and runs it when it’s full. It’s rare that a dish ever needs to go into a cupboard

I thought I was lazy and cut corners… but that’s just gross re the dishwasher. The carrots / veg - that’s weird.
with the clothes- if you don’t have a lot I can kind of see the point

I used to feel the same, until I got one. I couldn't live without it now, especially after having a child. Doing dishes is such a waste of your time!

If you're not working then the usual domestics can be done as you are doing, just you and DD. When having to work these things are harder and generally done on an evening so perfectly fine, day to day living with a young child. Xx

Yeah a bit lazy, no big deal to empty a dishwasher. The hanging out of clothes fine but also a bit lazy to leave out, put them into piles and iron when needed. If you don't do the circle then it all builds up. If I loved on my own I would probably be quite this though. X
