    Get a dog. No dirty dishes. Simples.

    Another woe of a single middle class male is that he can't take a dog because he's not at home for most of the day. Getting a cat later this summer though :)

      Just put my dirty dishes with my clean dishes! Can you believe that? Luckily I noticed just in time so I could clean out the dishwasher before the dishes mingled too much. Could've ended badly! Someone should really make a (thriller) movie out of this. Or maybe I should write a book. Don't know if I can take much more excitement today X|

        You need to get out more man. People aren't supposed to rot inside all the time. Need that work-life balance. Build a life. Think with your p*cker and find some chicks. Anything to get out and enjoy the world.

                                Silly man; you're supposed to pile all the dirty dished on the counter and in the sink until the dishwasher is empty, and then fill it. Think of it as a mutex with the counter being a queue.

                                    Silly man; you're supposed to pile all the dirty dished on the counter and in the sink until the dishwasher is empty, and then fill it. Think of it as a mutex with the counter being a queue.

                                      And if it was a Micro$oft house you'd need to start with an entirely new, unproved technology and a budget that was clearly a hallucination.

                                      Woes? You mean sex and drugs and rock and roll? When they finally cremate me I want the bloody funeral parlour to burn down.

                                          Ahhh, you need to hang out with extrovert people who can make you the same. Wait... You don't want to meet new people. Deadlock. :doh: But, there are always non traditional ways to break the barrier... :~
