Stevo985 Posted October 15, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 15, 2018 There's a show on called "Eat Well for Less" That fat guy off of masterchef and some other dude show people how to eat healthier and spend a lot less. It's not bad. The usual collection of morons are on it "Oh I didn't know if I bought a cheaper cereal that I would save money" It's not hard, dipshit. Anyway, what pisses me off is they swap a load of their shopping for cheaper varieties, but they go to about a dozen different supermarkets. So at the end they say "if you make all these swaps you'll save £2,000 a year!" Yeah, they will. But they'll spend about 5 grand a year going to every supermarket in the country to get all the random shite you've given them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could be prepping for Brexit, cutting it in to drugs, having a 1970's themed sex party. There's no excuse for ready meal mash. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes there is, saves on washing up the frigging saucepan after you've made the mash (Starchy glue) in it. However my solution is far better. Don't eat mash or if you eat mash, make sure the missus made it (and therefore has to wash it up) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for the first time ever, I've got to stop you there. The cook doesn't wash up. One cooks, the other washes up.

The missus uses 950 different utensils compared to my 4 on an average meal, I clean up as I cook, she just leaves it all to the end. I agree with your principal but its just not equitable in ours. Someone else shouldn't benefit from my excellent working practices and productivity bonus, I also shouldn't be punished for someone else's profligacy 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted October 15, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 15, 2018 My OH piles all the washing up into the sink. I then have to remove it all to put the plug in and fill the sink. And even when the sink is filled before the washing is all piled in, it then leaves no room to actually wash anything, so I still have to take it all out before I start. This annoys me a lot. There's a big empty space next to the sink where we can pile the washing up before it's washed. Just put it there! It's definitely for this thread. It shouldn't piss me off as it's one of the only jobs I actually do around the place 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone else shouldn't benefit from my excellent working practices and productivity bonus, I also shouldn't be punished for someone else's profligacy Same but flipped, I'm the culinary equivalent of Hurricane Maria but with slightly less deaths. I enjoy cooking, it gets the day out of my head. I can't be doing dishes though, hate it. We'd either starve or switch to paper plates. Saying that, my wife's only real flaw, the thing that could eventually lead to a house full of forensics people: she puts glasses on the flat part of our drainer so the water doesn't drain out of them properly AND she leaves spoons bowl up so the water sits in them. That'll be my snapping point eventually. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) You've got to get a dishwasher. It helps, but so far, I've been unable to train the gf to fill the dishwasher properly. No you don't just balance shit on top of other items. And you'd think a grown human with at least a partial education would realise that plates should be rinsed before putting them in. And if she puts another dirty plate in there when everything else is clearly clean and needs unloading, I'm going to need to lay a new patio. Apart from that, she's great though.
