I’ve structured my life such that I don’t do dishes.
I don’t cook, and any serving ware (cups, dishes, plates, utensils) I ever use at home is compostable. I haven’t even used the kitchen sink in years.
My children whining and complaining that they just loaded the dishwasher yesterday, so why do they have to do it again (after several meals they neither prepared nor paid for) today?
@Turken They know they can put dishes into the dishwasher when they are done with them instead of waiting for a full load and loading them all at once, right?
AI set me straight cause I thought for sure “doing the dishes” meant something of a sexual nature. I did find something about “loading the dishwasher” as a euphemism for a disgusting sex act but it seemed fairly obscure and difficult to use effectively.
In summary, the phrase “doing the dishes” is not a standard urban euphemism, but it can be weaponized in inappropriate jokes with offensive undertones.
In any case, I would listen to music.
70s funk. Anything to make it more fun. I hate doing dishes and I currently live in a rental with no dishwasher. I buy lots of paper plates and plastic utensils.
The screams of the non believers!!
My wife bitching that I’m doing it incorrectly.
@Pavlov this…
There is an old joke somewhere with a punchline about no woman ever killing her husband whilst he was doing housework.
I think if I were ever to be murdered by my wife it would be whilst doing housework.
The TV, usually the news.
The water running in the sink.
The sound of water running and the clink of dishware in the sink as I wash it…
The water, my wife, who rarely tells me how to do them and the thoughts inside my head.
the hum of the dishwasher
@tweezak THIS.
@tweezak @werehatrack The non-electric manual models don’t exactly hum while in operation.
KuoH
@tweezak yes this

@ratman not even to get a drink or wash your hands?
@pakopako I generally wash my hands in the bathroom, and I seldom drink water when at home.
Since we have a dishwasher, I’m never doing dishes long enough to bother listening to anything.
I listen to nothing but I hear the water moving around.
Soap operas, what else?
@phendrick PHLBTBTBTBT!

The dishwasher does the dishes….no listening happening.
/youtube the sound of silence
@2many2no
Funny you should post that. Met one of their (DISTURBED) old equipment truck drivers this summer. He is running an RV park in Arkansas!!
Whatever show or movie I can “listen” to with minimal “watching”.
The ambient noise of the house (and city).
@xobzoo I have several comfort shows I’ve seen enough times I expect an intervention. The West Wing is on today
I cook, my spouse does the dishes.
Typically have music streaming at meal times, so whatever Pandora is serving up…
What is this dishwashing you speak of?
I have a machine for that.
I live alone and only really use one plate and one pan, so I just leave them dirty. No reason to wash something just to dirty it again the same day.

@accelerator It does sound super dirty for anything else. “Doing the car”?
@accelerator loading the dishwasher here means she is drinking wine in the kitchen
@brennyn Tailpipe love! Ewwww
@SacredKnight
Thanks for the laugh. I CAN use this one.
Reggae keeps me moving at chore times
Running water
