Dishwashers are the most useless machine ever, if I have to "wash" the fucking dishes before I "wash" the fucking dishes - what's the fucking point?!
That's as stupid as ordering from the grocery store on the internet, then going to pick it up - WTF?!?!?! If you have to go to the store to pick it up what's the fucking point?!?!?! Or are the idiots, mostly lazy, retarded, fucking millennials, to good to shop with the rest of us "commoners"?!?!?
I scrape the dishes off and scrub them because the dish washer can't do that effectively, but what it can do is get them up to a higher temperature which makes them more sanitary to use again. I realize I am a bit overzealous with my cleaning habits, and can respect the logic you present.
Edit: I also wanted to answer to the Internet grocery ordering as it is also something I do (except I have them delivered to my house, I do not go pick them up). This is going to sound fairly rude, but it's the truth - my time is valuable, and I can't stand wasting my time or crowds for that matter (I also happen to hate societal norms just that much, so I am grateful for the option to avoid as many people as possible). I would rather pay someone to bring my groceries to me at a cost that is lower than the value of my time. I work a lot (I think it's only fair to contribute to household income), have to maintain the cleanliness of my home, and ensure that my husband and son's needs are also met - this means they have home cooked meals and desserts available at all times from scratch. I loathe to admit it, but short cuts are needed once in awhile (I still have to find time to work out to maintain a decent figure on top of my wifely duties). I'm not complaining though, I do enjoy my life, however, I struggle to find "me" time and everyone needs a break now and again.
You "scrape the dishes off and scrub them because the dish washer can't do that", yes it can, it's called using your muscles and a scrub pad.
"It can get them to a higher temperature which makes them more sanitary"? WTF do you think the detergent is for? WTF are there all these "anti-bacterial" detergents on the market if it's the "heat" that gets them "sanitary"?
And why do you need your dishes that "sanitary" anyhow? It's just you and your family eating off them, are you saying you and your family are contagious? Or did you become a hyperchondriac like everybody else from watching too much "news"? Or are you using them to perform surgery or something?
I do "use my muscle and scrub pad" in fact, I was advocating for it. I realize they make detergents and such for the purpose of sanitation, but I do not like all the chemicals. Not a hypochondriac, my family isn't disease-ridden, and I intend to ensure that it stays that way by providing a clean and healthy environment, which has absolutely nothing to do with all of the COVID roleplay - I've always been that way. Growing up, my mother was absolutely disgusting, fat, and lazy to a point that I couldn't even have friends over, and I'd have to eat processed garbage quality food out of cans. Without providing too much detail, I think it will suffice to say that I don't EVER want to be like her (she's my mother, but she grosses me the fuck out) and maybe that's why I am a bit over the top - I just want better for my family.
The short answer is that I just like clean/sanitary dishes, and maybe my standard is a touch higher, so what? Whatever floats your boat, I do not look down on others if they choose to not operate in the same way, and if you think it's overkill that's cool, you do you.
By the way, I'm not so weak-minded that I would let obviously exaggerated, skewed, and even down right fake at times change my outlook on anything. The mainstream news is always the same bullshit song and dance anyway, which is why I choose not to watch it.
Agreed. 100%
