here's one, assuming the container on top holds liquid obviously a no go, and a couple items need to be facing a bit more downward but otherwise it's fine

there are two pics

chopstick may fall through as well if that is what it is

I didn’t have one for years but do now. It suits my laziness nicely and I have less and less kitchen stuff that isn’t dishwasher safe. Even some of the stuff that should be hand washed like wooden spoons may get chucked in there.

One thing I do not like to do is load other people’s dishwashers - I am happy to scrape plates, rinse if needed but nope, not loading. However I do it will be wrong somehow so I don’t.

Saw the pic. Didn't read the thread. I would murder anyone living with me loading a dishwasher like that.

last tv i had was like 2001 lol... but i watch shows/vids constantly on my laptop

last year i finally got a flatscreen cuz my neighbor was selling his for like 100 bucks, and it was 600 new, and to me it's like a 10k tv BUT i never even watched anything on it, cuz it was a total pain in the ass learning how to use it lol.. i finally got "the exapanse" on it, cuz i thought the space battles would look super cool, but they looked better on my 17 inch screen laptop. so the tv just sits in the corner, not even plugged in.

microwave i started using more lately. my apartment came with one already in it. i'd never buy one. i just use it for popcorn, and leftovers

Right on. I pop mine in coconut oil then drizzle the finished product with butter. So good.

I’m the opposite. I’ve refused to wash dishes by hand since I was a kid doing chores. Because of this I now load dishes with the skill and precision of a Scandinavian architect. I load other peoples dishwashers so they can marvel at what’s possible if they didn’t suck so bad at it.

Vindicated as well by modern science proving dishwashers sanitize significantly better than hand washing.

oh it's just alaska again. and not even the good parts!!! but it's on celebrity cruises, which i guess is a more expensive one? and it's a suite with a hot tub on the balcony

so really i just want to sit in the hot tub and look at the waterfalls, glaciers, iceburgs, whales, eagles, and grizzlies

and over eat and get wasted

i was also looking at an asian one. i've never been to asia. and some of those places in thailand look so amazing! like with the weird cliff pillar things coming out of the ocean lol

cruise destinations:

alaska
arctic
ant arctica
norway
maybe south pacific

for other destinations i think i'd rather just go non cruise

Sure. e.g. the classic Panama canal trip.

However, I ideally want something between mid June and mid September

Now that's a skill worth bragging about. I am jealous.

For a long time I was getting served ads for all inclusives in the Maldives and I'm pretty sure it was because of reading filthy travel posts in the pub.
