And today, I learned that you don't substitute diswasher detergent with regular dish detergent. It makes sense in theory, but somehow it just doesn't work.

The worst part is I didn't just do this at home, I did it in the breakroom at work first thing this morning. So as I'm mopping up all the suds overflowing from the dishwasher, people kept walking by asking what happened. I got so sick of it I just started making Shit up. I mentioned a freak underwater basketweaving accident, another answer was I didn't know but I was pretty sure a swordfish, an eggbeater, and Paris Hilton were involved. Then I got tons of sage advice like "You should have just ran it without any soap" and the great comment of "What, you mean you never did this before?"

It must be like Snipe hunting or something, everyone else knew about it but no one talks about it. Actually, there were a couple people that confessed not knowing about it, and they were appreciative of the lesson, even if they weren't the ones who had to clean it up.

Last time I try to do a good deed at work again.

Leave the dishwashing to the proper dishwashing folk. Women!

In college, I learned that you shouldn't substitute dish detergent for shampoo.

Well, unless you want a lemon-scented head and a terrible bout of dandruff.

My husband did that.... twice.

It wouldn't have been so bad if he hadn't done it twice in the same week...

Edit: This is not me, but this is an acurate picture of what it looks like.

You bring the kids to the office to do the dishes there? Fabulous idea. Otherwise, get your female but over there and wash me some dishes. /crackswhip

It has to happen for someone to see it. Joph's dishwashing is the Yeti of our household.

This so reminds me of my best friend's Polish husband. I was at their house for a movie one evening, and hubby went to the kitchen to make stovetop popcorn for all of us. He was making a HUGE racket, and I quizzically looked at my friend, who explained, "He makes popcorn the Polish way - he shakes the stove."

Heh this reminds me of that commercial where the guy tells his co-workers the printer's out of ink. They tell him to shake it so he picks up the whole printer and starts shaking it.
