You're never too old to learn something!
 

aka: Chris was an idiot on Sunday!

3 weeks after my 36th birthday, I learned a valuable lesson. I was doing some house cleaning after the race on Sunday, and felt pretty good about it. I was taking care of things I had been putting off, etc. Well, that included half a sink full of semi-dirty dishes. I rinsed them off, and put them in the dish washer, but when I went to run it, I discovered I was out of dishwasher soap. So, I instead filled up the little cup with Dawn dish soap. Makes sense, right? Hehehe. NO.


Well, right after I started that load, the phone rang, and it was Debbie, the psycho witch with the great body that I dated for the better part of 8 years, but whom I hadn't heard from in over a year. She was, I'm guessing, about a week away from her PMS cycle because she was being sweet, romantic, and suggestive as hell on the phone. Well, being a guy, I enjoyed this, and stayed on the phone with her for 45 minutes. When I hung up, I walked back over towards the kitchen to hang the phone on it's charger, and I saw it. It actually scared me at first. "It" was a foot tall, wave shaped mass of soap bubbles that ran the length of my kitchen floor, and 2/3rds of it's width.

Joy.

I ended up mopping the kitchen floor on Sunday too. My Mom would be so proud. :)

Hahaha, I'll be sure to use the regualar stuff, must have been fun cleaning all the bubbles up:D

That sounds like something from a movie or a cartoon.... hehehe.

I'll have to remember to keep a spare box of soap with me :D

lol, been there, done that, bought the t-shirt. Fun ain't it.:D

hahaha lol.... :D Never to old to learn indeed. Although I will have to try that at a friends house some day. I wonder what would happen if you put a whole bottle of soap? :D

§am.

Bwahahahah, Sounds like an Old I love Lucy Episode.. Thats classic dude.. I bet your mom is proud to.

I still don't get it. It couldn't have been more than a third of a cup, of DISH SOAP. If you can't use dish soap in the dish washer, I dunno. nevermind.

The hard way
 

I learned that lesson some years ago, the same way you did, the "hard way". Seemed reasonable to me too, but the wife said I was a dumb-@ss.

Now thats to funny, It's better then my story with the Campbell's soup. :D

That's a story we'll need to hear.

I think it has something to do with the agitation. I'm no expert, but I would suggest the crystalized laundry detergent next time. Just make sure you have the mop handy. :D Honestly though, I think it won't make a big mess.

Lucy, I'm home

;)

LOL That's hilarous chris, I did the exact same thing with the clothes washer once. I think it was the first time I ever did laundry and put like ten cups of detergent in it! (they were really dirty)
Roommate comes home and is like wtf are you doing!!! :) I thought it was funny! :confused:
Good job though! :)

Chris, should have took some pics so we can laugh more!:D

OH MY!!!!:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :p :p

HAAHAAA that is great!!!!!!!! Are you sure you don't need a woman around PKRWUD????;)

LOL. I never said I didn't want to have a woman around, I just want her to go home sometimes.

;)

You know James, that didn't even occur to me until just now. I kinda went into "panic mode" when I saw what was happening. It really was mostly soap, and some water, and didn't pose any real threat, but in my home, I'm a control freak, and I never told the dishwasher that it could do that!

On a side note, another lesson learned by this was to not use dish soap to mop your floor. After I finally got it all cleaned up, there was a sticky film kind of feeling to the floor, I'm guessing from the soap. I ended up using some 10 year old Mop & Glow and finished it off.

Take care,

HAHAHA!!! You just now figuring this one out?!?! HEHEHE!!!

Hey man, the light really does go out when you shut the frig door too!!! HEHEHE!!

Wanna have some fun? Go to a friends house and drop a small cube of dry ice in the toilet. Then yell and ask your friend why the toilet is smoking. HEEH.

Sounds like you got the same kinda luck with women that I do. Guess thats one we'll never learn. Good luck with that one..
