Aibu to no longer sort cutlery?

[FaithHopeAndSkulduggery]

I just put forks, knives & teaspoons all together. I no longer can be arsed to sort them. I put the spatulas etc in a jar by the cooker.

Aibu?

My mum has never sorted hers, just bungs them in. I spent my childhood sorting the tray for her to muck up. Each to their own

I don't sort the cutlery when I wash the cups up at work - feels mildy rebelious..

:)

Totally the same. Have sorted it for years and a few months ago wondered why. Now I just throw it all in. Quietly liberating.

Omg. Even reading the title made me recoil in panic! But I'm a sorter. Everything in my pantry is in glass jars with labels on. Packets are in big boxes with labels on. My kid's room has IKEA kallax with boxes and the boxes are labelled with "transformers" "construction" "imaginext" "dinsosaurs" etc.

It really is a problem of mine. Maybe not sitting the cutlery would be like a gateway drug to not being so obsessive...

🤔I have never considered NOT sorting the cutlery.... How wild!

Mine's in a big blue jug, unsorted.

I did this at our old house, just stopped bothering and threw them in but I got sick of rifling through it for a teaspoon and now they are all sorted and it’s much better!

I had a friend over and she opened the drawer and she was completely shocked 😂

DH might lock me out of the house if I ever dared.

I'm a sorter, but I've been rebelling!!!!Might try this one next!!

I've just moved to a new house...no room for a cutlery draw sorter thing...I was devastated initially 😩. Cutlery and cooking utensils now all in two round metal containers next to cooker. I really like it now 😂

I got one of those Tiger magnet fridge things to stick on the side of the fridge for teaspoons. The other things are all in a jug thing, but I’m thinking of just sticking them in a drawer, still unsorted.

I used to huff and puff at people putting the wrong this here and the wrong that there. I would even sort them in the dishwasher so it would be easier to sort. But I don’t gaf anymore. And the knives and spoons all have fingerprints and I don’t care.

Sharp knives are in a block thing.

I tried sorting it into big cutlery and little cutlery. THe rest of my family rebelled.

OP

I am one of the most untidy people I know, but I would never even consider not sorting my cutlery. When we moved into this house, I discovered the kitchen drawers are too narrow to fit a standard cutlery tray. I am so averse to not sorting it that I made my husband make me one out of plywood!!

I just like to know where everything is - the idea of not sorting would never occur to me.

Remember that Alana Morisette song 'Its like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife'.

My eyebrows shot off my forehead. So it's all just slung in. I can't comprehend it. Just no.

You will rot in hell for this, that's for sure.

It’s jut the forks knives and spoons all together. You can see the top to grab what you need.

Just

Because they are standing up in the container thing.

OP you are the future.

I am also loving everyone’s reactions to this.

The thought of it makes my head spin. It takes like a nano second to put them in the right place in the cutlery tray.

I don’t match socks because it is far too time consuming, they just go in a huge drawer and people match their own (or not as the mood takes them) so I am not averse to a bit of can’t-be-arsed-ness. But cutlery? Cutlery? It ain’t fucking hard is it? Unless you have fish forks and all that shite.
