How The Gild Solves Dirty Dish Drama

To everyone who's ever had to have a 30 to 40 minute conversation about doing the dishes, we know you'll appreciate the seriousness and ridiculousness of this situation as much as we do.

Suggestion #1: Section off some of the countertop with tape and each person has to put their own dirty dishes in their own square to make people more conscious of how much/little they are contributing to Dirty Dish situation.

Rebuttal: Not enough counter space!

Suggestion #2: Each person has a day of the week where they have to do all the dishes in the kitchen.

Rebuttal: Doing your own dishes right after you use them takes 5 minutes, whereas doing a whole day's worth of dishes might take an hour, plus you might be doing dishes on a day where we've just had a potluck vs. days where maybe no one was home all day, which becomes imbalanced work load.

Suggestion #3: Everyone has their own bowl, cup, and plate which they use exclusively to cut down on the amount of dishes being used

Rebuttal: THAT'S WORST CASE SCENARIO! (not sure what this meant but everyone felt this was too much hassle!)

At this point, Natalie bursts out: IT'S SO HARD! IT'S SO HARD TO GET ADULT WOMEN TO DO THEIR OWN DISHES! WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Suggestion #4: We all garner more willpower, realize that the kitchen is not just our own personal space, show more respect for our housemates, AND MAKE AN EMBROIDERY HOOP ABOUT IT!

Rebuttal: NONE! EMBROIDERY HOOP WINS! IT'S GOING TO CHANGE EVERYTHINGGGG!

Kate's embroidery skills save the day for the first time, but not the last.
