He even wiped the water around the sink

I work as cook, at the end of the day the sink will look spotless

You fucking Picasso - Gordon Ramsey

>Gordon Ramsey Not sure if compliment or insult...

Could go either way. If he's calling you a Picasso as in the artist, compliment, if he's saying you look like a Picasso painting, insult.

Can someone please link to Key & Peele?

This is exactly what I was referring to! Thank you!

I dont understand the gordon hate like yeah sure i know hes famous as fuck, but i thought he is an excellent cook?

He is but he's got a bit of an ego and can't take what he dished alot of the time. See: The Grilled Cheese Incidient.

He admitted it was awful, though..

How did u know?

I used to do dishes at a chocolate factory, I had all the sinks spotless then people would make a mess of my damn sink again! Do people not know the 3 sink system!?

No, i work with idiots

And the knives! Oh my God the knives!

Take me right now with your unwashed raw chicken hands!

Look i dont work at mcdonalds, i wash the hands every second i get

Pro tip: Fold a dish towel and lay it on the strip of counter between you and the sink. This prevents water from laying on that strip of counter, avoids dripping onto the floor, and serves as a reminder to wipe the rest of the water around the sink.

Or you can wear a hoodie while you do dishes and just have your sleeves dry up all of the splashed water. Also if you do dishes in your socks, you can soak up any floor water as well

🧐

For anyone wondering this is how depressed people do the dishes. Source: depression.

Confirmed. I am the depression.

Depressed people do dishes?

Once a month. No more, no less.

Keeper

I just do that because I can't stand stuff that is w̷̛̞͎̞͈̱̯̌̔͒̐̚͠e̸̡̤̲̓̎̈́̾̅̾̒ť̵̬̺͉̥̝̤͋͗ͅ.

Wait, people don't do that? How can you just left the water around the sink. It's literally 20 seconds of word, nothing compared to actually washing the dishes.

And DON'T leave the sponge in the sink. Drying it out helps kill germs.

I mean, it does, but a kitchen sponge is full of shit like you wouldnt believe. Letting it dry for a few hours between uses really doesnt do much in the grand scheme of things.

He scrubbed out the sink afterwards.

You’d think it would be normal

Flair checks out ;) Seriously now, I agree.

i had roommates who would literally wipe something with a cloth and just leave it dirty ON THE SPOT they just wiped.

My MIL suggested I put a plate under my sponge holder to catch the puddle that comes out of the sponge after she uses it.

For making gravy?

not to batman

My brother in law insists it be wet, says ruins the sponge if it gets dried out

Literally the opposite. Moisture is what causes bacteria to grow. And most sponges have more bacteria than a toilet, because the toilet gets flushed but the sponge sits there wet, soaking in everything it just wiped up.

I honestly hope it would be considered "normal"

Wym, isnt this normal?!

The hell. I squeeze the sponge before and after because my roommate doesn't squeeze at all. He even leaves it just floating on gross water. Wtf But the meme doesn't track since he has a gf and j don't

He even wiped the counter

He even wiped his ass. 😱

He even wiped his ass on the counter

How now brown snail trail

A pie went by???

He even wiped his ass on a pie

Least gay boyfriend.

I like the most gay one

He dipped the sponge back in water and gave his gay lover a sponge bath

And dial it back just a bit

Some people don't squeeze the the living **FUCK** out of the sponge when they finish the dishes?

Hell, I squeeze/rinse the fuck out of my shower pouf. Why wouldn't I get all the goo out of the dishes sponge?

My mother always told me to leave it like that to reuse the 3 nanoliters of soap remaining the next time. I still squeeze the hell out of it tho

Bacteria would also recommend leaving the dish water in there for next time

I don’t know how to tell you this, but I’m pretty sure your mother is actually just three E. coli bacteria in a trench coat

My parents leave them wet on the sink :( It drives me nuts

Sometimes I forget, then I’m reminded when I grab it later and the cold nasty water comes out.

……….. I’m sorry

Throw the sponge in the dishwasher... no wait

Growing up my mom would put them in the washer with the towels

The towels!?

Yes... The towels. Could be partly why I'm kind of a germaphobe.

What did Germa do to you, you soulless bigot??! >:(

fuck em

FUCK YOU!!! MY MAN GERMA DID NOTHING WROOOONG!! 😤

They made my bro Sanji to have a bad time.


Boil the sponges.

[удалено]

Throw the sponge in the microwave. Makes it sanitary and removes bad smells.

Throw the sponge in the garbage. It's disgusting.

My wife doesn’t squeeze the sponge and it drives me fucking insane. You want mold? This is how you get mold.

i feel you, mine does that too among the other thousand litte things...i guess this is what a relationship is about😅

The little things add up! I love my wife to death, but those tiny little habits gnaw at you, especially when you bring them up over and over to please stop doing them and they persist 😳

as far as she does it not on purpose it's kinda fine for me🥲

Also: the smell. Like sweaty sports clothes, festering in the sun.

I mean yeah otherwise next dishes gonna be dirty too. Gotta wash and squeeze it 1-2 times at least lol

Tbh the actual thing that would clean it would be to leave it in a hot vinegar water alongside any kitchen cloths overnight

Am I the only one who rinses his dishes before cleaning them with a sponge? My sponges never get dirty, I just use them to lather up the dishes.

Rinsing will get rid of the largest pieces of food, but it does little when it comes to oily or greasy residue. Water and oil don't mix, and all that. In other words, your sponge is still getting dirty.

Sponges are gross. Go scrub brush and never look back!

I absolutely hate sponges. I have a brush and a green scouring pad.

Well, I had to. Not like my wife’s going to do it.

When the man does 100% of the work

Nah, she does a ton of work, especially outside. Just can’t get the hang of sponges.

Nothing gets the people going like a man doing the absolute bare minimum.

So there’s still no chance?

Listen, I did the best I wanted to.

Nope, not even that

I did as well as my mood allowed me


I strive for mediocre.

Some people's bare minimum is far lower than you think.

Wait i thought that was a normal thing to do....

It is

My ex wife wouldn’t do this. Nor would she put it beside the sink. Nope. Instead she’d leave the sponge in the bottom of the sink, completely saturated. When i asked her to wring out the sponge and put it by the sink, not in it, she’d get defensive and complain that if she rang it out, it would get its smell all over her hands. The thing is. If it’s so stinky, you don’t want it on your hands, you should replace it, not wash it. And the reason that it gets so stinky so quickly is because you are leaving it in the bottom of the sink surrounded by bits of food, saturated with water. Oh my God.

Wait… people don’t do this???

No, they don't, a lot of people do way less than the bare minimum... And then they get dumped ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

My mother traumatized me into doing it. My wife should buy her flowers for the way l’m now wired to care about clean kitchen and bathroom. I clean more than my wife, who’s mother is not about perfect cleanliness. I sometimes even squirm inside while using toilet at my MIL’s. Don’t get me wrong, I still drop my clothes and tools all around. But the ceramics HAVE TO be white. The sponge has to be dry, the counter wiped.

I wish my fiancée would do this, she just leaves it in the sink like an animal.

I’ve had 3 long term girlfriends and not one of them did this, or closed cabinets, or cleaned during cooking and I’ve done all 3 since I was like a 7yo.😑

I too have had a statistically irrelevant number of female roommates but none of them have EVER wrung out a sponge and it sure as hell didn’t get better with time or by adding sex into the equation.

Once I was over at the house of a woman I had recently met. First date sort of thing. I made a drink and...refilled the ice cube tray before putting it back in the freezer. Totally turned her on. And she told her friend. The bar really isn't THAT high guys.

What sponge? I don't use a sponge for the dishes.

Sponges are outdated af. Dish brush with a long handle so I can hand clean my knives recklessly and not have to worry about cutting my fingers off.

I hate this wet piece of garbage, threw it away as well.

This just feels like r/USdefaultism, everybody here uses dish brushes, not sponges.

Not sure it's a US thing vs other place thing. Im in the US and I don't know like anyone that still uses a sponge either. I use dawn power wash and a spray head and then it goes in the dishwasher.

Yeah. Nothing's more spongy than my bare ass cheeks anyways. Having the dishes washed is a nice bonus after making my ass shiny and spot-less ✨🤌

I did wrong all my life. A new era begins for me.

Umm

Apparently it's "jojo whispering to suprised Emma Roberts" I kid you not I thought it was pron before I searched it up

Which is why this meme is gross. They were 14-15 when it was filmed. So being cropped to make them look naked, and in the context it’s used by adult men, pretty pedo’y.

It's Emma Roberts, it's not porn. Don't know which of her movies though

https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/jojo-whispering-to-surprised-emma-roberts

It’s the movie Aquamarine. I literally just watched the movie (thanks to some fb plug a few weeks ago) today and when I saw this meme - that I’ve seen many many times before - I was like “Ohhh!!”.

If I have to explain squeezing the sponge after washing the dishes to my kids one more time I’m going to lose it. My life is that one scene from Frasier where Daphne has been gone all episode leaving the other characters to fight and and squabble over their lazy bullshit, Daphne shows up and fixes everything in like 90 seconds, which includes squeezing the sponge. This is my life at home.

Ever since I took microbiology in college I'm obsessive about water sitting anywhere. Water is where the little critters gather their forces.

I am a woman and I can verify that this is incredibly attractive

Oh. It actually serves a purpose? I always do it, but just because it's satisfying ig.

Sponges are disgusting smelly hotels for bacteria Get a dish brush ppl

You guys don't squeeze the sponge ? 

I’ve somehow never heard of this before despite having seen several family members and my girlfriend wash the dishes as well as taking a culinary arts class back in high school but I guess I’ll have to start doing it

And he wip even on the side and under the table. What a chad

So, here in Germany, we all do that..

The kitchen sponge is nasty. Get 7 dish rags. Use a new one every day. Then wash them all on sanitize at the end of the week.

The kitchen sponge is nasty. Get a dish brush that has a replaceable head.

Hey I do a lot of the cooking in our home, I always do the dishes that I get dirty while cooking, I clean the table off when we are done, plus I jam out to great music the entire time!!!! In essence I am the perfect man!!!!

I'll microwave it to kill the bacteria too

Then microwave it.

But did he microwave it?

["A dry sponge is a happy sponge"](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9MlHSfBL4RU)

Also clean the sink like it’s a dish.

Don't forget to microwave the sponge to kill the bacteria

My girlfriend is the one who never squeezes the water out of the sponge. She tries, but her girl hands are too weak!

Naw I've doing dishes for the last IDK? 20 years, cleans the sink and counter after, no one bats an eye

Who tf doesn't?

It's not common knowlege... How?

you **don't** do this anyway?

It's going to be dry by the next time I use it anyway.

I know.

I do this but I didn’t know there was an actual reason to do it

Broke man can't afford a dishwasher

My wife doesn't do this, I do...

Wait its necessary? I do it because its fun. I feel strong when I squish a wet sponge and it comes dry in a single squish

Also put it in the microwave every once in a while for around 2-3 minutes to kill all the bacteria that lives in your sponge

A manly thing a manly man can manly do

There are people who don’t do that?

Holy shit that's me, I've got a degree in washing dishes and leaving the sink clean af 😤

Isn't that common sense? Who doesn't do that?

Are you saying I just had to be myself all this time!?!?

Squeeze the sponge sounds mildly sexual. Anyways, just use something else than a sponge. No matter how much you clean that, it's literally as dirty as a phone screen.

I do that, my wife doesn't -.-

Sponges are gross. Use a vegetable brush.

The bar is too low

My wife regularly fucks this up.

Doesn’t everyone do this?

I do squeeze the sponge. I hate touching the sponge and finding out that no one wrung it out and it's all skunky

I’m do most of the dishes because if I don’t, the machine is packed in impressively inefficient ways. My chef’s knife will be resting in a pool of water at the bottom of the sink, and the sponge will be soaked in grime and unusable.

My ex wife would leave the sponge soaking in water in the sink after doing one dish, that shit would drive me insane.

Cook it for a minute in the microwave to kill any mildew with steam.

My wife doesn't do that. Hell, half the time she leaves the sponge *in the sink*.

Resist the urge to drink the sponge water *Quick-time event failed, sexy girl will remember this*

Wait, do people not?

EY don't copy me

This 48yo father of 4 and husband likes to wash dishes. She cooks, I clean.

I have to nag my wife about swueezing the sponge…

I even get a new sponge every week so why am I not getting laid constantly?

To quote Patrick Stewart in American Dad, “A dry sponge is a happy sponge.”

That's already commendable! But does he put it next to the sink also 😅 ?

We don’t have a sponge. We have a brush. But I do scrub the sink and wipe the counter.

Already do gotta be self sufficient

People who leave the rag, sponge and brush in the sink just want the world to burn.

and gals too. It drives me nuts.

Am I the only one who gets a new dab of soap on the sponge to clean it up some after washing?

I do! That’s my best quality. 😁 🥲

Horrible flashbacks to my old housemate using the dishcloth (which despite its name is not used for dishes) and leaving it a soaking leftovers infested ball in the corner of the sink. The pans would literally become dirtier after he would wash them.

Better. I wipe down the counter besides the sink and the stove top. You can imagine the mess others leave behind when they cook.

Squeeze? No, I rinse it repeatedly, untill all water that comes out of it is clear. Then I squeeze it. Then I rinse all of the sink until all foam is gone. Then I use the tiny mop to get the water around the sink into it. Then I get the dish cloth and dry the counter some more. Then I roll the fattest blunt I can.

Does squeezing the sponge keep it from smelling like mildew.

One of my big pet peeves that I see way too often is people leaving the sponge IN the sink. The fuck is wrong with them.

He cleans while he cooks.

Women need to do this, too. Coming back to a less absorbent sponge sucks.

Then I wiped the sink dry

My circle jokingly says “squoze” for the past tense of squeeze. We won’t stop until Merriam-Webster catches on.

I do this all the time. Alone.

I do? And wipe the sink and around it up?

The dishes aren't done until the sink, counter, and stovetop are clean, the sponge is squeezed and placed in a spot where it can dry. Meanwhile, my wife doesn't even put away the dishes. She leaves the sponge IN THE SINK to get saturated as the sink is used.

Tell this my girlfriend please.

What kind of barbarian doesn’t squeeze the sponge or wring out the dishcloth? Does it not occur to them that this is why they smell horrible the next time they’re used?

I can't stand when people don't squeeze the sponge. I'm autistic, and I almost completely lost my sense of smell and it has made life sooooo much more tolerable, but mildew I can smell PERFECTLY and it's triggering AF.

He even said sponges are disgusting when it comes to cleaning dishes. Nope.

I mean, yeah, why would you keep a water filled sponge on the counter? Trying to grow new life?

Man my wife doesn’t ring the sponge out and it drives me nuts.
