=== ANCHOR POEM === ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────── do you have a glass bottle with a weird shape that's hard to clean that has something stuck on the inside? try using salt, lemon/lime juice, and a bit of water. Then shake really hard. Works like a charm in most cases. plus if you happen to have more than one for whatever reason, you can re-use the cleaning solution! ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┘ === SIMILARITY RANKED === --- #1 fediverse/3512 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────────┐ │ CW: gross-food-mentioned │ └──────────────────────────┘ you know all that gross-food-mentioned in your refrigerator? today's the day when you clean it out.

If you can't, then reorganize. If you still can't, then pick things to get rid of. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┘ --- #3 fediverse/2448 --- ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────── always dump out a water bottle before filling it. helps keep it clean a bit longer. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┘ --- #4 fediverse/4476 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────── ┌───────────────────────┐ │ CW: alcohol-mentioned │ └───────────────────────┘ if you have to sanitize, use a bit of vodka too LOL ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┘ --- #5 fediverse/5539 --- ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────── don't put dirty dishes in the sink you filthy animals put them on the counter NEXT to the sink [it's not arbitrary it's just better] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────┘ --- #6 fediverse/381 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── when your home directory scrolls up and off the top of your screen, it's time to do some cleaning. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────────┘ --- #7 fediverse/4307 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────── the easiest part of cleaning is taking out the trash the hardest part of cleaning is deciding what belongs in the trash ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────┘ --- #8 fediverse/865 --- ══════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────── first step to cleaning a kitchen is always to unload the dishwasher. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────┘ --- #9 fediverse/6451 --- ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───── if you boiled the seas, it'd rain a lot more.
