... has anyone ever had the pleasure of doing someone else a favour only to have it blow up in your face? Like coming home after work, seeing a sink full of dirty dishes, and deciding out of the decency of your little hear that you'd do them, thinking you're doing a them and your roomates a small favour in a long and often stressfull and thankless modern day of life.... only for your deed to be critized for not having done a "grade-A" job? Funny isnt it, doesnt matter whether or not you're trying to do good, in some peoples eyes durring certain instances, nothing but perfection could ever match up to their expectations, unwarrated or not...

but I guess in an instant the entire plausible "favour blowup-in-face issue" could easily be over shadowed in comparisson to the gravity of other peoples misfortunes throughout our vast and often unfogiving planet... still makes you wonder why people cant just chill out a wee bit more, especially considering all of the advantages us notherners have, for fucks sakes...

If i see a lot of dishes in the sink, I put them all in the cubord dirty... Clears the sink out and when someone wants to eat, they can wash the dish...

hehehe, my solution to dirty roommates is: getting up early in the morning at start cleaning the house, so roommate wakes up, and then when roommate starts bitching at me, I give her the speech of her life on how her lack of hygiene is a reflection of her personality, and that she should be ashamed of letting me do the cleaning since we moved in. After my speech she proceeded to clean the house in tears. Gold!
I'm feeling happy right now..

I think the worst is when roommates seem to have not only no concept of doing dishes whatsoever, but when they put their dishes, still half-full with food in the sink and pile it up. It's especially bad when you've done the dishes, gone to bed with everything clean, and wake up the next day to 6 plates with half-eaten food piled up in the sink.

2" of opaque-white slime consisting of rotten pasta, unfinnished hamburger helper, a few half-sandwiches, chunks of poutine... Yeah, way to go.

Probably the same way that people don't understand how to replace a roll of toilet paper after being shown 3 times.

Noah, your theory is somewhat unorthodox... it's true that you may be temporarily freeing up the sink area but really what's being done is that you're completely avoiding the problem at hand... continually pulling the scab off a wound which could potentially never heal itself completely. Juju, your idea is slightly more proactive & productive. It gets the message across to your roomate with minimal sincerity but I think you could've chosen a less spiteful way to present your argument. The best solution to this problem (or any problem involving a roomate) is direct polite confrontation. If your roomate is someone with who you share a mutual respect for and trust (which they should be since you're living with them) they'll appreciate your honest concern more than actions that could be labelled vengeful or consequential. Of course alternative solutions include buying a dishwasher or buying paper or plastic plates from the dollar store which (although wasteful) would eliminate any time spent on argument since washing dishes would no longer be an issue altogether.
I'm feeling you up right now..

the problem there is that if you pull a dirty dish out of the cupboard you have to wash it in order to use it, once you have washed someone else's mess you do not feel like washing the same plate a second time. At this point it SHOULD technically be the responsiobility of the one who left the last dish dirty to wash it, however that person has the same excuse. Viscious cycle continues.

Clean your fucking dishes right away when all it takes is a five second scrub n rinse! For god's sake could this be any more obvious?! When I had roomates, the rule was "If you have time to eat, you have time to clean up after yourself!"

I feel that man, and it applies to everything, for a solid month I fed, housed and entertained my girlfriend every chance I got. I was basically a servant, even giving her cash when she needed it, and she said thank you, but of course, once when I DARED ask her to pay me back, just for that specific time, (she wanted busfare to get home and back when she forgot her buspass) she freaked out and started calling me cheap and 'obsessed' with money.
Some people NEVER fucking appreciate anything and instead of realizing they had it good, they freak out when they don't get what they want. Makes me want to punch 'em in the mouth. But i'm 100% non-violent (with women anyway) so rage just builds up. *sigh*

some people SO don't deserve what you give them, and then sometimes they deserve it, but manage to ruin it anyway :\ (by sleeping with a 30 year old Lebanese drug dealer named Arckmed)
I'm feeling tuesdays?! right now..

I know this sounds a bit cliche, but you're probably better off without the bitch

oh I am (much better off without her)! although I was kiding about the Lebanese dude... the rest was completely true and properly understated even...
I am amazed at the lengths i'll go to for the moments that do rock :\

as a funny side story, I swear to god that EVERY single time I say bye to her, whether I am with her or not(like msn), she finds some reason to get TOTALLY pissed at me and says she never wants to see me again... I am almost convinced she consciously needs to create drama, whether good or bad (although almost always bad)
when we were dating, we broke up almost everyday... it's almost funny thinking back on it now :)

oh, the youngin didn't last too long... not that I'm not ok with that, never give your heart to a 19 year old girl, and I was fully aware of that before I got into anything, so all good... just good fun, and that was the understanding from the start...
