As I put a dish into the dishwasher I thought to myself, “🤔 I haven’t cleaned the filter in a while.” So I took it out and gave it a real good blast with piping hot water from the kitchen sink. I even scraped some of the gunk off with a dish brush to the point where I couldn’t find a single mote of gunk upon careful examination.

Then I proceeded to refill the rinse aid (even though it wasn’t empty) and–as usual–spilled that stuff all over the interior door in the process. Is it even possible to not spill the rinse aid when refilling it? 🤔

My journey didn’t end there, however! I then proceeded to walk the entirety of my home searching for cups and plates that may have been left behind by my children, found several, and it was enough that it nearly filled the dishwasher racks; bottom and top.

The dishwasher has been started; the wait begins.

    Oh no. No no no no. My friend, you are in for a horrible, terrible, awful surprise. I am so sorry.

    I recommend keeping potential witnesses a good distance away from the entire kitchen and possibly wear a respirator and thick, protective rubber gloves to shield yourself from the horror you are about to extract from the “clean machine”.

    No matter what happens don’t give up! Maybe have a bucket handy in case you need to exfiltrate the contents of your stomach.
