    To some it is, and it's a point to smugly-smuggle-smuggety-smuggety-schmoo their way into authority over anyone. There's no rules other than to and say, NO - wrong! And then show you that "teaspoons go bowl up, but dessert spoons go bowl down" as they just made it up.

    It is just a fricking dishwasher. Take your superiority complex elsewhere you sad pencil dick.

      The problem is if it doesn't get loaded and put on you end up with no cutlery and no space left in the kitchen to prepare food. So half loading it, then just piling tulip up in the sink cos it's full, rather than putting it on, is ******* stupid. So is waiting to put it on because there is space for one more plate when it already has all the cutlery in it. Are you really going to delay it four hours and end up having a takeaway for dinner because of that?

        Theres only one correct way to load the dishwasher and that's get the wife to do it. Or EternalOptimist if he's around so he can demonstrate leadership.

          Oddly enough it's my wife that is obsessive about filling the dish washer. I no longer bother going anywhere near it because i will always be wrong...

            The only correct way to load the dishwasher is not to own one, unless you're running a hotel or have a family of ten.

            The very concept is the height of absurdity, and it's just as easy to wash plates and cutlery in the sink.

            Washing machines OTOH are the complete opposite, and a real Godsend.

                The dishwasher thing baffles me. Mrs MUN loads it such that half the space is wasted. I never bother telling her, I just move them around an put the rest of the stuff in when he is not looking.

                  If you have kids and actually cook proper meals they are a necessity.

                    Quite. Anyway, I leave mine to the kids. They load, they unload. The main thing is to leave enough space for the water to circulate.
