Dishwasher Debate

[Wet Dream]

My way:
If I can take a fork and sweep it off the plate, it goes down the garbage disposal. If anything is dried on, caked on or petrified, it goes in the dishwasher. This includes teflon coated pans and the boys' plastic cups with chocolate milk dried on the bottom. It also includes oil pans, pistons, intakes, valve covers and ice chests. (though not at the same time with dishes)
Options in use: Hot Water, Power Scrub, Hot Dry. If an item has anything left on it, it gets left in there for the next go-round.
Her way:
Wash it all in the sink, remove all evidence of food. Teflon does not go in the dishwasher. Do not use Power Scrub, it takes too long, and do not use Hot Dry, it warps the plastic. But then everything is left with a film or spots and you then have to dry it.
Options in use: Short Wash
Doesn't make any sense to me.

My way,
Rinse everything off throw in the dish washer. No wood or pans.
Dish washer ruins wood handle steak knives and cutting boads.
Pans hit agitator will not wash dishes properly.
Her way,
Don't care throw everything in and turn it on.
Dishes come out dirty.

I am the dish washer. But If I had a machine I would say my way. And listen to Franky sing it.:D

My Way: (And may I note, only my way) "Girls, get in here and do the dishes"
I've got two very capable daughters that share this responsibility. Works just fine...
:D

Why do Brides wear white?
Cuz' I think the dishwasher should match all other appliances in the kitchen.

All my appliances are black. Is that why women wear black to
funerals? Cuz doing tha dishes is killing them.

Just do what a buddy of mine did back in college: throw dirty dishes away, and buy new ones!!!! LOL. -DD Out

The dishwasher I purchased has a built in garbage disposal. Screw rinsing the dishes!
This topic cracks me up and reminds me of Tim Allen when he was a stand up act.
He was loading the dishwasher and his wife came in and said "you have to wash the dishes before they go in the dishwasher". His reply "yea thats like me wiping my butt before taking a shit!" LMAO!!!!!!!!!!:D
