Gross

Today, I had to try to convince my roommate that, yes, you do need to use dish soap when you hand wash dishes because of bacteria in old food. She still won't believe me, insisting that, "There's no such thing as bacteria in food." FML

Today, I had to tell my 28-year-old roommate she needs to wash her hands after using the bathroom. She then said she’d try, as long as I try to put my dishes in the dishwasher. Those aren’t even on the same level. FML

Today, I had to yet again explain to the guy I live with that just because you can't see dirt, it doesn't mean it's clean. And so letting his dog lick the plates is NOT the same thing as washing up. He won't listen to me, and he uses my plates. FML

Today, my roommate yelled at me yet again for using the dishwasher because it's "unsanitary." This is all while a mountain of her dishes were going mouldy in the sink. FML

Today, my wife bitched at me for not washing my hands before handling the dishes. The dirty dishes. That were sitting in a sink of hot soapy water. According to her, the dirt from my hands was gonna make the dirty dishes even dirtier. Huh? FML

Today, I learned that my roommate, the one in charge of the cooking, never washes her hands beforehand. According to her, it boosts her immune system. FML

Today, I found out my mother cleans the dishes with bathroom cleaning chemicals. She doesn't see anything wrong with this. FML

Today, my roommate said that whoever was doing the dishes was doing it wrong. I've been doing the dishes for weeks. So much for being a clean roommate. FML

Today, I found out that my best friend doesn't wash her hands after going to the bathroom, even if she changes her pad. I then remembered all the times she's handed food to me, and teased me when I tried to wash my hands first. FML

Today, my husband told me that he never washes his hands after using the bathroom because he thinks it's only for "paranoid people". FML

Today, I discovered that the "dish soap" my sister uses to clean our dishes when it's her turn, is actually a semi-toxic floor cleaner. FML

I wonder what she'd think if you told her she has bugs on her eyebrows and eyelashes.

Don't be ridiculous. There's no such thing as microscopic bugs on it in your body.

Your roommate is a genius. Using the tried and true method of doing a task so intentionally bad that you are never asked again to do said task. Brilliant!

It's not like you're going to die or even get sick because of not using dishwashing soap, come on, loads of people don't. Unless you leave your dirty dishes out there for ages and let them get all gross, the food that is on the dishes you're washing is the same food that you've so happily been eating an hour ago. If a dinner serving of it didn't kill you, why would a tiny bit left on a properly scrubbed and rinsed plate kill you? I only use soap to wash greasy, sticky or obviously unhygienic items and I can assure you that I'm quite fine.

Why would she want to skimp on dish soap? I agree that it is likely not necessary for most dishes, but it makes it easier to wash the actual dirty ones, and the suds help you see if you actually washed all the areas of dish or not. Dish soap costs a few dollars for a big bottle. It's not like she is saving time and money by not using it.
