I’ve realized I am really bothered by passive voice in cleaning with people I live with. “I am going to do the dishes tonight” - great “Eric, would you take out the trash tonight please?” - that’s fine! I probably would have taken it out if I had realized it was full. I’m an adult and this is my house, I try to keep it clean. “We need to clean up around here!” - What does that mean? Do you want me to clean? Are you going to clean? I thought things were pretty clean, is there something specific that needs cleaning?

Also me and my mom can’t live together because we do dishes differently. I am a “fill and start the dishwasher” person and she is a “Empty the sink” kind of person.

I have a related peeve.

Dishwashers are not dish storage. When the machine is done, you put the fucking dishes away.

Sinks are not dirty dish storage. You put the dirties in the fucking dishwasher so that your sink is fucking clean. The sink is where you either wash things, or get your fresh water. There is no good reason for your fucking nasty ass dishes to be sitting in there for hours or (worse) days. Don’t put your fucking milk glass in there with water up grow fucking bacterial cultures. Wash the fucking thing, or put it in the dishwasher.

Lazy motherfuckers fucking up my sink will get a blast of hell so fucking hot, it cooks their bowels. Jesus fucking Christ, were you motherfuckers raised in a fucking garbage dump? What the actual fuck?

Out of anywhere in the fucking kitchen to keep fucking spotless it’s the fridge and the sink. You don’t shit where you get your water, and you don’t piss where you store your food. Fucking barbarians.

You feeling bad today? Sorry, me too, my crippled ass isn’t going to fucking wash your shit again, get the fuck back in the fucking kitchen and handle shit.

I swear to fucking gods, people are fucking nasty. I’ve dumped three gorgeous women because they just couldn’t understand that keeping a clean kitchen is central to good health and a well run home. And a clean kitchen is centered around not letting food rot and grow shit!.

Back years ago, my and my best friend lived together, and we kept shit right. Every fucking time we’d try and get extra roommates to control costs, that shit is what kept it from working. Motherfuckers gonna leave shit sitting in my pristine sink I just fucking scrubbed and not think they’re getting booted. My hairy, chapped ass

Strong agree. I hate when people leave their nasty dishes in the sink for someone else to have to grab and either handwash or move to the dishwasher

I hate that thing where you spend time dusting all over and then a few days later there’s already dust all over again

I often struggle to figure out what products or chemicals work well for cleaning certain things. Anytime I search Google, everything is just “baking soda or vinegar” which never works for fucking shit.

People who are way too lax with washing crockery and cutlery, including not rinsing off the suds

Unpopular opinion maybe, but my peeve is when men stand to pee. It gets everywhere and is so disgusting. Every weekend when I’m bleaching the walls and everything in the “splash zone” it irks me that guys won’t also just sit to pee.
