My dishwasher ate the honey bottle cap. No really. It's gone. |
|
Kind of like a missing sock from the dryer. But my dryer doesn't do that and my socks all have mates.
But the little plastic bottle the honey came in which I washed to re-use, its cap has gone missing. It's too big to go down the drain and there's no white plastic melted anywhere in the dishwasher.
Okay, that was my profound post for the day.
Yours?

3. My washer, or maybe it's the dryer, whichever truly does pick out one |
|
sock of a pair, or rather many pairs, and sends them to sock heaven or sock hell, where ever missing socks go.
I have a lot of dress socks that only have one of them left from a trip to the washer/dryer. I suppose it I bought them all in the same patterns and colors, or bought more than one pair of the same kind of socks, I'd be covered. But I just don't want to challenge the sock god/demon. Who knows what he'd do if I tried to screw with him? And I'm not willing to find out.
Maybe somewhere in a paralel universe there are a race of being all wearing unmatched socks.

4. Maybe they're a race of one-footers? |
|
Maybe you could try some sympathetic magic and bury a pair of brand new socks in the backyard as an offering to the sock god/demon.
Just a thought.

8. Sort of like a sock sacrifice. Maybe erect a pyre and sacrifice a nice |
|
pair of argyles. I'll take that into consideration.

5. You're gonna need a plumber, |
|
or dishwasher repairman before too long, this is the voice of experience speaking.
It's gone but won't be forgotten.

20. It is in the drain between the dishwasher and garbage disposal. |
|
It took the repairman the better part of an hour to get all the little pieces cleared from a catch. The problem manifested itself when the dishwasher wouldn't drain.

9. Somewhere, perhaps in another galaxy, |
|
someone is puzzling over the little plastic thingy that has mysteriously materialized inside its appliance.
I am absolutely convinced that things get transported, although most usually in dryers. I am the proud owner of a green towel that showed up one day in my dryer. I had not bought it, no one else in my household purchases towels, I'd had no overnight guests who might possibly have brought along their own towel, the kids had not recently been to the local public pool where they might have brought home the wrong towel -- no rational explanation, and yet, the towel appeared.
Then there's the earring which had been missing for about six months and which materialized in front of me when I was walking downstairs back in August. Quite bizarre, but I'm glad it came back.

They fit no one in the household and we'd had no houseguests.

11. Was it one of the little bear honey bottles? |
|
Maybe your dishwasher thought the little bear was cute and wanted a toy to play with.

12. Naw, just a plain ol' plain ol' kind for squeeze bottles. |

Oh well, it'll turn up, I'm sure. Hopefully *before* a plumber becomes an option.

13. That can only mean one thing: |

Either there is a portal to another dimension in your dishwasher, or you have to clean the filter... eeek.
