The universal sign for “I may not be done with this yet.”

Yeah but a lot of people claim it to be “weaponized incompetence” so they can punish their partners.

Weaponized incompetence was a term created to shame partners for not being able to correctly preform household tasks that are considered “simple”

Like a husband not doing the laundry right just so the wife will do it instead.

If you use the same knife every day then at best the butter residues on it are just one day old and you can keep using the same knife for the rest of your life without ever washing it.

You’re welcome.

And yet change that to a cast iron pan and people fawn over it.

Do you typically heat your butter knives to several hundred degrees?

Where do you think the phrase “like a hot knife through butter” came from?

First, you can totally clean cast iron with soap and it’s not an issue. The “seasoning” is oil that has polymerized. It’s not coming off without scraping, assuming you’re using a modern soap that doesn’t have lye.

Second, your cast iron shouldn’t need to be cleaned as frequently because it’s being heated to the point any bacteria should die. Is your food cooked enough that you won’t get sick? The pan was hotter for longer.

Then you go to grab it and you knock it in to the sink.

I have some small magnets stuck to the underside of my stove’s range hood.

When I need a place to put that spoon that “I’ll probably need later”, I stick it to one of the magnets. Just let it dangle away.

Butter comes in sticks so this would be difficult.

If there’s sufficiently less stick in the butter dish, I’ll cover the usable part of the knife and also the butter.

Nonpolitical Twitter

Create post

For screenshots of humorous, clean, nonpolitical social media posts. This primarily implies Twitter, but Facebook, Tumblr, Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads, etc. are allowed too. It should be primarily text-based though.

Rules
  1. Again, no politics.
  2. No Lemmy posts. You’re already on a Lemmy instance. There’s no need to screenshot it and post it here.
  3. No Reddit posts. That’s too similar to Lemmy.
  4. The joke must be text. Images can be included in the screenshot, but only as needed context.
  5. Use correct cropping. Don’t have a mile of whitespace or show extraneous UI, but don’t crop out the date or author.
  6. No doxxing. Again, don’t crop out the author’s name as he or she has chosen to share it, but definitely do not share extra information which may be personally identifiable or libelous.
  7. Link to the original post either in the body or in a comment.
