New Year's Thoughts
If you have any say in it, steer clear of dishwashers that don't have an easily removable filter you can clean. CLEAN YOUR DISHWASHER! Do it in detail, not just the places you can see. Before cleaning your dishwasher, prepare yourself for unimaginable horror. Reading the complete works of H.P. Lovecraft would be a good start. But it isn't enough. Nothing is enough. If you don't already have a wet/dry vac, get one. What the hell is wrong with you? You ate off plates that were "washed" in that chamber of hidden filth. Come to terms with that.
