True story. I did not have a dishwasher until I was 37 years old and now I could not live without it.
I love my dishwasher

Well... I thank human innovation for the invention of cascading hot water, aka hot water showers.
And cheesecake. And ice cream. And pepperoni subs.

I acquired a dishwasher at the age of 27, but I barely ever run it. Given that I usually snarf my meals right out of the saucepan with a wooden spoon.

Fried chicken. I'm pretty sure I could live without any other food.

I thank god for inventing feminine hygene products.
Of course, since I'm talking to Him anyway, I suppose it would be a good time to give Him some serious grief for creating the whole menstruation process in the first place.

Dishwashers are for lazy people. And the unmarried. Since I am both, why don't I have one?

Good point! I'm both unmarried and supremely lazy in many ways, but still I find myself now without a dishwasher (after always having had one). I guess it explains why I subsist mostly on take-out, pre-prepared meals, eating out, and as a last resort, popping over to my parents' house to nuke something (yeah, that sounds pathetic, but they live next door to me so I would like to think that there's some kind of mitigating circumstance in it :blush: )
I thank Dog for feminine products, for sure, and definitely for Hot Cascading Water (aka shower). A couple years of 3-minute bucket-showers in the jungle made it so that I never, ever take a nice long warm shower for granted.
Even moreso than dishwashers I thank Dog for clothes-washing machines and dryers (esp. the dryers 'cuz they are helpful for de-wrinkling, towel-warming and stuff). Washing clothes by hand and line-drying is a real bitch, even if the line-drying thing is romanticized.

I would agree wholeheartedly sister, but for one thing. Line-drying is worthwhile for one thing, and one thing alone...bed sheets.
Otherwise, yes, not only am I dognamed happy that they were invented, but that I own one of each, so I don't have to go to laundromats.

Hey godfy :)
You're right in that line-dried bedsheets are a beauty to behold (and smell, and sleep in... *bliss* ) I guess I was mostly thinking of other things, clothes and such. I do have nice memories of sheets flapping in the wind tho :)

Dishwashers are a human invention. Imaginary deities had nothing to do with them.

Josephine Garis Cochran..
this would be the lady to thank for inventing the dishwasher.
do not read into this that God is a woman.

I thought the dishwasher was invented by Red Green, made out of an old refrigerator, a piece of garden hose and a mess of duct tape.

As has been mooted before by some, it's 'Her' not 'Him', as evidenced by the fact that if God were male, he would never have put testicles in such a vulnerable position. (i.e. on the outside)
My vote goes for central heating, followed closely by the internal combustion engine.
