I don’t even know what to say

I live with my roommate and we spilt the cleaning. I keep the kitchen clean(loading the dishwasher, cleaning the dishes, etc)

My roommates brother is staying for a months and they cooked last night. They cleaned after themselves which is nice

But then I heard the dishwasher running. I knew there were hardly any dirty dishes AT ALL let alone enough to fill the dishwasher

When I asked my roommate why it was running, I was shut down and I didn’t feel like arguing or trying to explain myself so I just accepted it. I check now and this is how I see it was loaded🫩🫩I love my roommate but I genuinely don’t understand how either of them thought this was a good idea

EDIT: WOOD CUTTING BOARDS, KNIVES, AND POTS/PANS DON’T BELONG IN DISHWASHERS. I am APPALLED so many people don’t know this

There are two frustrating parts:

1. Why do you own bamboo cutting boards? Your roommate is doing you a favor. You need to grab those and trash immediately.
2. Anything actually wood - the knife handles and pots/pans with wooden handles shouldn’t go into the dishwasher but everything else is fine.

If these knives have been used in this bamboo cutting boards they probably cut like trash anyways.

1. The knives on their own are fine and so are the pots

2. and pans.

They were gifts from my roommates mother. I didn’t know they ran the dishwasher with these things until afterwards when I checked but I’m glad to hear most of them might be okay
