So it must be bland, and boring and dull.

I loaded my cups into the wrong section of the dishwasher and DH was mildly annoyed.

Who is BU?

The advantage of being an incompetent dish washer stacker is you are eventually relieved of dish washer stacking duty. I haven't loaded the dishwasher in years.

If our dishes actually got clean I wouldn't care, but I'll find dishes with pools of dirty water waiting for me when the cycle is done. It is not difficult to load things in the correct angle.

My other issue is efficiency. If I can fit 100% of the dishes in the dishwasher, I'm not letting you run it below 75% and waste the four hours of dishwasher time (and water and soap). Take the dishes out and load it again; they DO fit.

I have a Nutri Ninja, Saskia

I've been around for a good while but still don't know who Sharon is. Should I cancel the cheque or is there an easier way to solve the mystery?

AmberStClare · 11/06/2017 12:08

I don't have a dishwasher either and am in floods of tears at being made to feel so inadequate.

I have got a Nutribullet though.

Itsnotwhatitseems · 11/06/2017 12:10

NO ONE in my family loads it correctly except me. We have family visit often and it is the same thing.

It drives me NUTS. I have shown them about a million times.

It is not that I am anal it is just common sense, bowls don't face up, that kind of stuff.

I was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar, when I Mitmoo.

Mr Flappy is reading the paper and ignoring my mental vibes to take the bleedin' dogs out.

I threw my guts up all over the stairs last night, couldn't make the loo, ds1 held on to me got me water and helped me manuover around the disgusting mess, and into my room, he then went and cleaned the whole lot up, washed the carpet and then febreezed it to within an inch of it's life, I don't know I raised such a selfish git, he actually went back to playing his ps4 instead of checking me every five minutes, I think I should show him the door.

And clearly I can't spell manouver so maybe I should show myself the door Grin

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 11/06/2017 12:13

Definitely call 101 to log it Grin

Can I complain about the distinct lack of swearing on this thread. I have only spotted one fuck so far and it just isn't good enough. Have I stumbled onto Nethuns? Do I need a ticker?

I noticed that I am wearing not a particularly nice top today

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 11/06/2017 12:28

Yesterday, my 'D'H, just before he left for a business trip, left the car keys in the ignition. First thing this morning, I'm in a hurry but couldn't find said keys. Then eventually find said keys, still in ignition, battery flat as a pancake. I am undecided, do I LTB or just move straight to hiring a hitman? ha ha ha lighthearted Angry

faithinthesound · 11/06/2017 12:32

Who or what is Mitmoo?

Ekphrasis · 11/06/2017 12:34

I can't work out if I feel sick at 6 dpo because I'm pregnant or I've been looking at my phone too much during #GE2017.

I see your Poutine and raise you Jellied Eels. But only in the proper ld East End fashion.

bigtapdancingpimp · 11/06/2017 12:38

I went to a restaurant last night with friends and we each paid for what we consumed. I wanted to split the bill but my unreasonable skint friend got the hump and refused to subsidise my steak and wine. I was literally shaking with anger and we are now NC.

All this dishwasher talk is exciting me Grin I'm moving soon to a house with a built-in one but as I'm single there will be no 'dishwasher wars' Sad I do however plan to put the cats' bowls in there but I envisage problems as my cats are lazy and entitled and will no doubt expect me to empty it every time Sad

Mandatorymongoose · 11/06/2017 12:43

I am currently on a spa day but DH is here too. He obviously doesn't understand the rules of spa days. Should I book myself a spa day to get over it / teach him a lesson?

Itsnotwhatitseems · 11/06/2017 12:50

LTB

itsallabitrubbish · 11/06/2017 13:04

My DH just came back from the shops without my Yorkshire teabags, I'm having to drink Co-op red label, should I ring the police then LTB or the other way round? I've NC for this

I don't like latte Saskia - I think you are projecting.

OP posts:
Salmotrutta · 11/06/2017 13:16

Do you think I should show DH this thread?

I'm thinking it might show him the error of his ways.

Maybe take in some ironing?

Salmotrutta · 11/06/2017 13:34

Yes I could do that.

Or set up a small business/make a chicken last 5 days/sell stuff on eBay?

Its OK salmotrutta I'm off duty from my normal self appointed thread police duties so do not intend to report to the HQ crew Grin
