Anyone else would mop, right?

[DewDropsAndCobWebs]

You pour yourself a coffee, and as you turn away from the counter, a tablespoons worth falls to the kitchen tile.

You would mop that up right? Not leave it, or "wipe it up with your sock".
Right?!

Am I being unreasonable to think anyone else who spilt coffee would get out a mop and clean it properly?

Good grief a mop would be overkill. Kitchen roll and a spray with some cleaner

Sock

If it was in my own home I wouldn't mop it. At work like fuck would I mop it. A quick wipe with some kitchen roll.

Yes. People getting so worked up at the thought of having to get a “mop” out. These mops do not require you to fill a bucket and get the zoflora out. It’s literally no more effort than using a cloth.

The point is that it’s both lazy and disgusting to whip your clog off and use a sock rather than using a proper cleaning implement to wipe (or “mop”) it up 🤷‍♀️

Nope, use the dishcloth (washable microfibre cloths) then put it in the washing machine and get a fresh one from the basket.

Kitchen roll for me.

When people say sock do they mean one that they're currently wearing?
That's so weird but lots are saying it so must be a "thing"

Are you for real?

Definitely neither option. If a liquid spilt I would obviously use a kitchen cloth to clean it up!

If it was milky coffee, I'd use a damp cloth. If it was black coffee, sock (or probably dry kitchen roll, don't like having damp socks!)

Sometimes depending what it is I gently point my dog in the direction of the kitchen. And what's done is done 😄 🤣

Sometimes I get oven trays out by folding my sleeve over my hand. Of course I would wipe a bit of coffee off the floor with my sock 😄 🤣

I would use a piece of kitchen towel

Kitchen towel and a bit of spray

definitely not getting a mop out unless I was about to mop anyway (very low chance)

What's a mop?

So even you didn’t use a mop!

This every time.

Me too.

Read the first page with slight surprise - no need even for a sock if you have . . . a Labrador! Maybe a flash power mop if the dog is in the garden!

No way. Kitchen roll or dishcloth. Quick spray of lavender Method. Unless the dog licked it up first!

🧦

I wouldn’t get a mop out for a mug of coffee, let alone a tablespoon! I’d grab some kitchen roll and spend five seconds wiping it up.

I'd wipe it up with a cloth, but none of the animals living in my house would even notice.

A sock! Nasty.

"It’s literally no more effort than using a cloth"

It is literally more effort to use a mop than to tear off a piece of kitchen roll, wipe spill and bin. In what world are they of equal effort?!

No chance I'd use my sock. I cannot STAND the slightest bit of damp on my nice cosy socks

I'd use a kitchen towel, then probably a wet wipe. Maybe the other way round. We don't own a mop.
