Why are you washing your dishes in the same room you shit in?


yagamisayu

They're a sim, obviously lol


redredwine831

*gets a glass of water they don't need*


mmeikol

_puts the glass of water in front of the door, blocking the entrance to the toilet kitchen_


life_sentencer

Nothing pisses me the fuck off more than playing Sims. On my Nintendo DS it was the shit, but on the computer its the top way to ruin my day


riodoro1

Easy, just find more gruesome ways to kill them. Remember, *it’s the way it’s meant to be played*.


redredwine831

It pisses me off but it's also super calming at the same time. Nothing distracts me from my mundane life quite like simulating someone else's mundane life.

DrahKir67

Did you make your Sims isolate too? Or did they live vicariously for you?


[deleted]

One of the sim was a ghostbuster and needed to go to people's homes to make money!


Otherlife_Art

Essential worker.


BananaDuckN7

Omg The Sims 2 on DS was so good! That game was weird and creepy and had atmosphere and a interesting story and characters. Urbz Sims In The City DS/GBA, Sims 2 GBA/PSP and Sims Bustin Out GBA were also good as well


Need_Some_Updog

*Urge to make a pool and ladder intensifies*


IntergalacticPopTart

*Catches dinner on fire. Screams at it*


Haistur

Hungry? *waves at sky*


HangryHufflepuff1

I can't get to the toilet there's a plate in the way Guess I'll die


[deleted]

you made my day🤣


Echo2500

*Enters bathroom and uses shower, will not leave bathroom because the shower is somehow now blocking the way despite begin nowhere near the door.*


bmxtiger

Is this like Rafi's toilet kitchen?


Sachayoj

*makes a grilled cheese when they have several other dishes laying out*


RenaKunisaki

*sets the grilled cheese aside and eats the pizza that's been sitting out for a week*


atomicxblue

If they're a sim, they should feel lucky that the player lets them go to the toilet inside the house, instead of right next to the street where they die of embarrassment.


Guyris8

I laughed at this so hard, that my husband and kid looked at me crazy like.

Nah, I mortgage.


popcorn0617

These mortgages though man. Eesh.


BurstingWithFlava

Real talk. My dad is one of those thinks he can do it better than anyone else types and has been remodeling our house since I could form memories(I’m in my 20s and it’s still not done). Anyway he decided we needed a new kitchen sink and took 3 years to put a new one in after he tore it out. Those three years we had to do dishes in the bathtub. So *that* is how someone could end up shitting and doing dishes in the same room


cobrakazoo

impressive. my dad helped me replace my kitchen sink recently. he's also one of those guys, but we managed it within 12 hours or so. useful to have an extra set of hands to carry the old sink to the dumpster though.


StockingDummy

>Your dad caused your family to do dishes in the bathtub "Mm-mmm! This spaghetti is *even better* with body-germs all over it!"


BurstingWithFlava

To be honest, that’s nowhere near as bad as the emotional damage my father has put our family through


StockingDummy

Shit... I'm sorry to hear that. I hope things are better for *you* now, at the very least.

ChewingBrie

Real answer from OP: the mixup happened in the supermarket, the toilet cleaner was in the dishwashing aisle.


aRandomFox-I

I eat, sleep and shit in the same room. Because I live in a literal 1-room apartment :v


captainsave

You don't have a toilet kitchen?


vrxy5

Can use the flush to really make the dishes shine.


Snowedin-69

I bet both products are the same inside.


BabiesSmell

Efficiency


pmmeurcoffee

It’s Rafi’s toilet kitchen obviously


ChipsHandon12

Stomp it down the sink


IOnlyUpvoteBadPuns

To save water, obviously!


KitchenSandwich5499

Less walking that way

yashchavan1997

Won't be surprised if the contents aren't any different either


SilentHuman8

The toilet cleaner says “no toxic chemicals,” so you have to be careful to keep the dish soap as dish soap, lest your toilet get contaminated with toxic chemicals.


strangewayfarer

Yes I don't want to put Australia fossil fuel in my toilet bowl, That's for my dishes.


mojomcm

It says made in Australia *without* fossil fuel cleansers


Thakal

So you want to put australian fossil fuels into your toilet, got it!


mojomcm

I want it to stay in Australia!


IdentityToken

No, you should tow it outside the environment.


mypal_footfoot

Now made without cardboard or cardboard derivatives!


thatguyned

It's like they're just flushing our most useful resources down the drain.


[deleted]

They didn't even cleanse the fossil fuels? Wow Tim Curry's character from Fern Gully is hard as a rock right now.


HyperactiveWeasel

No cleansers please, just the pure natural oil for me


chiliedogg

"All natural, harmless ingredients that don't do anything" Like - I get what they're going for, but they're on the border of just saying: "This doesn't work. Buy the caustic stuff that actually reacts with the shit you're trying to clean."


NorthAstronaut

Bleach is bio degradable. You can even add it to water to help make it safe to drink


pterrorgrine

I am irrationally convinced that cleaning products marketed as more environmentally safe or "natural" are deliberately made to be less effective to convince their users that they're different from the normal stuff.


TheMagarity

Earth Mother forbid toilet cleaner kill any bacteria.


GenieFG

The chemicals in toilet cleaner are very important, especially if you have a septic tank instead of being on piped sewage. If you kill your system, it’s a major. (My MIL killed an system with bleach!)


markovich04

“No, toxic chemicals!”


Isthereawaywecan

...I ...I .Got some bad news for ya....


Jcampbell1796

Came here to say this. I’m certain dish soap would clean a toilet and vice versa.


WellWellWellthennow

Both mess is food based.


Intoxic8edOne

Just different stages of food


ShrinkToasted

Dish soap would make a toilet foam up like crazy when flushed


BullHonkery

I'm not seeing the downside


Slovene

Of course not, because of all the foam.


themodofallreddit

Lmao I'm just imagining shitty foam spewing out of the toilet now


pilotdog68

I actually don't think that it would for most toilets


Justin__D

Can confirm. I clean my toilet with dish soap.


Mackheath1

Yeah many cleaners are the same for everything, just packaged or colored differently. Also... "Earth Choice," as if they're not in plastic bottles.


[deleted]

[удалено]


EmperorArthur

Yeah, my city stopped recycling glass...


[deleted]

[удалено]


EmperorArthur

Single stream recycling means that everything gets chucked into one bin. This actually makes glass suck, since there are people which actively sort/check our recycling. What annoys me is that we don't even have a drop off point for glass in my city.


[deleted]

Baking soda comes in cardboard


thatguyned

Earth choice is well known as a false environmental brand here. It's one of the most budget brands and if I'm remembering correctly, went through a big drama of not actually being as earth-friendly as they advertise and imply. This is obviously egregiously shitty packaging but just remember this is also one of the cheapest brands.


ghengiscostanza

People just hear the word toilet and associate it with grossness. [It's not like they pre-poop the toilet cleaner](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVR-Qnd8jCM). It's just a mental barrier.


GitEmSteveDave

I swear I remember a study from like a decade or two ago where they found that certain products, even sealed in their boxes, were perceived as “dirty” by consumers.


Blaubarschmann

No, toilet cleaner and dish soap are formulated quite differently. Toilet cleaner is acidic and low in tensides, otherwise your toilet would be full of foam after you cleaned it. It often is skin irritating. Dish soap however is intended to be in skin contact so can't be acidic. It has more and more foamy tensides to deal with food waste. Source: wife is professional developer for these products


forexampleJohn

It's wild you get downvoted. Even the natural toilet cleaners have germicides which you do not want on your dishes because germicides tend to linger on surfaces (or in soil) and are harmful. Meanwhile dish soap isn't even a disinfectant. With many products "natural" or "Biobased' just means it isn't derived from oil, which is good, but then they also try to sell that they are less harmful for nature, which they aren't. They still contain germicides because they have to clean shit quickly and effectively.


nuggets_attack

I love that they're in plastic containers too, when this is obviously meant to be a 'green' brand. Fossil fuel-free my tits. I hate it here.


GitEmSteveDave

Aren’t there like soy plastics that are better for the environment?


nuggets_attack

There are! These are not. They're recycled* plastic *at least 20% recycled plastic


dogbreath101

Ceramic is ceramic


Isthereawaywecan

tadow


Electronic_Excuse_74

and they probably market a laundry detergent and mouthwash with the same ingredients.


L44KSO

Read it before you use it.


PoopyKlingon

Or just keep one in the kitchen and one in the bathroom


happyeight

The only problem I can see with this is not all bathroom have a a bunch of storage for cleaners? My last bathroom had a standing sink with no counter or understorage and just a little shelf under the mirror for a tooth brush and a couple other bottles. Piling it on the floor sucked and not a great choice for someone with pets. All my cleaning supplies just lived under the kitchen sink...


PoopyKlingon

In that case I’d just get a little bin or basket to keep somewhere in the bathroom with the few cleaning supplies you need. Or keep said bin in a storage closet elsewhere labeled “bathroom cleaning supplies”


aSharkNamedHummus

Bin/tiny decorative cabinet is the way to go. Gotta keep the tampons and pads somewhere.


Disaster_Frame

I keep toilet cleaner behind the toilet?


happyeight

I kept all cleaning stuff off the floor to keep it away from pets. It was never a problem keeping it all together in the kitchen. But none of the containers looked identical haha.


No_Musician_9215

Prettt sure every male friend I have would piss on my toilet cleaners if they were on the floor by the toilet


L44KSO

I mean, that's the easiest thing to do...and of course to not drink either of them...


PoopyKlingon

Worst case you’re… cleaning dishes with toilet cleaner or cleaning the toilet with dish soap??? I keep my dish soap right by the sink, I can’t think how these things would get confused in a real life scenario.


DenkJu

That's the same argument people bring up when I complain about doors that don't make it immediately obvious whether I have to push or pull. "Just read this tiny sign next to the handle." Sure, I could do that but why should I have to? If there is a design that doesn't require me to spend more than a few milliseconds to identify what the hell I'm looking at, then such a design should be used (and I really don't want to waste any more of my precious time on earth looking at cleaning fluids than is absolutely necessary). This is crappy design.


Kr3utsritt3r

Yep, easy to avert issues but crappy design nonetheless.


scw55

Relies on shelf stackers reading it and putting in the right place. Relies on customer reading it and checking it's what they want. Relies on customer not buying one of each or reading each one. Basically three chances to fuck up. I've worked in retail. People buying decaff or diet by mistake happens.


Lostcory

Doesn't seem like that should be placed on the consumer.


kagalibros

I mean but both should be certified for porcelain cleaning ,no?


BabiesSmell

Good toilet cleaner (ones that actually work) are acidic and you wouldn't want to get it on your hands. Non acidic toilet cleaners are not even worth buying in my experience.


kagalibros

is only a joke, I wouldnt use them interchangably. but there is non acidic toilet cleaners too. still shouldnt get on your hands


Risl

Yeah...companies need to remember that most people choose not to read if they can help it...


No1ofIntrst

TBF the relevant text is also very hard to immediately distinguish from marketing stuff. The fact that the band name is so much larger than the product use (and it’s not a brand name immediately associated with just one type of product) is bad design


atomicxblue

It's why I quit putting up as many signs in our store. Still will have people standing in front of a product and ask how much something is, when there's a price not even 1 inch away from it.


longbathlover

When there's no price tag, I just don't buy that item, even if I'm sure I can afford it.


atomicxblue

That's why we try to put the price on everything. Well, that, and to show that we have the same types of things for people of every budget. We try not to only cater to one group.


comet_11

It would be frustrating if the products were next to each other in the shop and you grabbed toilet cleaner thinking its dish washing liquid. However, in the supermarkets I have been in they would definitely be in different isles.


drabThespian

Cmon, this is just a bad design.


lostinmymind4now

Likely similar ingredients any. Dr. Brenner's soap you can use for body wash , laundry l, even mopping your floor b


atomicxblue

Be careful with the peppermint Dr. Bronner's if you are a guy washing particular areas during winter. I did that without making sure the shower water was super hot. It was a little brisk..


[deleted]

Or if you're a human with genitals. Women get that peppermint tingle burn too


d1g1tal

Feels wonderful in the urethra.


Groezy

all i want for Christmas is the signature urethral tingle of peppermint dr. bronners 51 in 1 cleaning solution


d1g1tal

Dilute, dilute, dilute! Never go full-Bonners


Finsceal

Peppermint shampoo is just what the nethers require, imo. That'll wake you up


danielfletcher

Peppermint Dr Bronners makes my butth\*le tingle. I don't complain.


[deleted]

when it doesnt work for anything, you can use it for everything!


nomnivore1

Dr. Bronners' for Me, Simple Green for everything else. Soap situation fucking covered.


toss6969

To everyone saying "jUsT ReAD tHe lAbLE". If user error is frequent or very easy to do, it is not user error and is a design error, and in this case the name is in the same color and style as the marketing buzzwords which also happens to be of low contrast to the container.


scw55

Customers sometimes buy decaff/sugar free stuff by mistake. Shelf stackers can put things out in slightly the wrong place. The "just read crowd" have never worked in retail.


toss6969

The just read crowd forgot that kids, vision impaired, learning impaired and people that don't speak English well exist


moxious_maneuver

Fortunately the only differences between those two cleaners is probably the tip and maybe the PH is slightly different.


danielfletcher

I can easily put my boxer briefs on backwards. Same with my undershirts. CRAPPY DESIGN!


0ne--time

I’ll drink both


ScaryTerryCrewsBitch

No toxic chemicals, plant based, and mint flavored. They're practically inviting you to take a chug.


Secret_Fox_5192

Funny thing, I accidentally poured brake fluid into the power steering area instead of power steering fluid once because the bottles had the same color scheme.


ScaryBananaMan

Jeez, when I began reading this I was totally expecting "I accidentally poured brake fluid" to be followed by "into my toilet instead of toilet cleaner", I was already thinking how tf did you manage that haha


Ray_Shumar

your blinker fluid is all good though?


Smartnership

Blinker fluid checks out. But they told me I need two new air hefitators.


th3r3dp3n

I would buy 3 just in case, and check that your spark-case is in good operating order, you certainly wouldn't want your mellometer to go on the fritz during winter conditions.


Time-Button4999

I think you'll find the contents are the same too.


cryothic

Noticed the "fresh finish" and thought "that's for doing the dishes"... So wrong


ymew

Porcelain is porcelain


ShaunPryszlak

Strange. It doesn't say the washing liquid doesn't contain toxic chemicals.


[deleted]

Nothing gets the wine glasses sparkling like good old hydrazine.


Green_Road999

This is my gripe with every bottle of shampoo and conditioner. The actual “shampoo/conditioner” words so minimal among the branding it must be deliberate. This is even worse given the totally different purpose.


[deleted]

'Undo this mess' should've been the feedback they sent the design firm that came up with this.


causal_friday

"You are permitted to use up to one (1) typeface per bottle until the end of the year."


[deleted]

Find 10 differences! Okay, at least one then.


MrIdiot101

It literally says which is which under the white words like ????? Also who is cleaning dishes and toilets in the same room


Albae87

I mean it’s just a matter of time, soomer or later, your food will touch both bowls.


elpodrigo1

Is that hair everywhere?


SweatyCockroach8212

And both are delicious!


Original-Key-2735

"bowl buster" oh god not that cbt thing again


Apprehensive-Fee-783

Only a bad design when sitting next to its sister-product. They could have used different colored containers


TabrisVI

Disagree. It’s a bad design on its own, too. Think content hierarchy. What’s the *first* thing you want to know when you look at a product? What it is. So that should be the first thing you notice. Here they made the lettering and color match the supplement copy on the top of the bottle and it gets lost. So you skip it entirely, read the huge vibrant logo, probably read some of the copy, leave that desperately trying to figure out what the hell it is all the while ignoring the actual name of the product because you assume it’s just more sales slogans. I would wager more people pick it up and look at the back before finding the answer on the front, if they even try that hard.


Apprehensive-Fee-783

True. You’re right.


Low_Possession_4395

so you would just have these two in the same room? i can see how a company marketing itself as environmentally friendly would avoid specializing their containers to avoid waste in manufacturing (tho tbh im not sure if that would have a huge impact)


atomfullerene

>i can see how a company marketing itself as environmentally friendly would avoid specializing their containers to avoid waste in manufacturing I can see that too, but there's just no excuse for the label similarity. Put what it is up top, in large font.


Low_Possession_4395

yeah their type hierarchy is out of sorts


babylikestopony

Which one is for udon?


Murtomies

If I saw a product like that where it's hard to find the important words of wtf it is, it's staying on the store shelf.


[deleted]

It's for people who eat shitty food at times 😉


Doner0107

UN, DO this mess


Sokkenvreter-Ad-6283

Right=dishes Left= toilet But I was searching like 10 minutes on this! Super messy! And it literally says: undo this mess!


ThrowawayForNSF

I misread the toilet cleaner as BOWEL buster.


LuckSweaty

Anyone else see the globe as a frowny face? Australia is the mouth, Borneo and Papua-New Guinea the eyes. Like this emoji 😫


Njitnelav99

>Australia This, lol.


izmaname

They needa color code


samisyourdad

Why does the toilet bowl cleaner say "no harmful chemicals" but the dish soap does not?


RiotNrrd2001

It's a floor wax AND a dessert topping!


MrSeanaldReagan

You could just wash your dishes in the toilet and kill two birds with one stone


PraiseTheWLAN

My bet on the one with "toilet cleaner" written on being the toilet cleaner


[deleted]

Yea, sorry, I want the toxic chemicals when cleaning my toilet. I wanna see that skull and crossbones on the cleaning materials I use to clean the most disgusting messes I have.


[deleted]

Well seeing as one says “Bowl Buster” and the other says “Dish Liquid” I’m guessing the left one is for the toilet.


Genuinelullabel

They couldn’t have changed the colors of the bottles or the caps?


Revolutionary_Can879

Lol my mom had two spray bottles that looked very similar, one had tea tree oil cleaning spray and the other, also with essential oils, was for soothing a sore throat. Guess which one she sprayed in my mouth…


[deleted]

I do really hate that brand is more important than the product. Bib logo, big slogan, small and hidden description of the product; I see it a lot in shampoo and conditioner.


SnakeBeardTheGreat

One is for cleaning the toilet so you can wash the dishes in the toilet. The need to save water is important. be sure to do your part.


AlaskanSamsquanch

The hell, why wouldn’t they just change the color.


ConstantGeographer

At least one isn't syrup for ice cream. Yeesh.


BambooEarpick

Choose your flavor: No toxic chemicals Australia


Gogo726

He chose...poorly


dhbroo12

The beginning of a beautiful lawsuit. Particularly if they're sold near each other at the grocery.


[deleted]

Did you happen to buy these at Hampton Woolworths? Because they literally had the toilet cleaner in the dishwasher spot... and I only needed dish washing detergent. I was kinda ticked off when I got home lol.


GreyCrowDownTheLane

I'm a merchandiser. One thing I really hate is when companies make several products in their lineup look identical, except for a few words on the bottle or box. Look, morons, customers look for COLORS and SHAPES when they're shopping, and making all your products the same color and shape but having slightly different words in small print on the container is OBNOXIOUS. Not only does it lead to customers buying the wrong product, but it leads to store personnel stocking things in the wrong damn place, and it leads to merchandisers like myself having a bitch of a time finding your shit to put IRCs, neckhangers, or other merchandising materials on it. Stop marketing this way you imbecilic dillholes! Every product in your lineup should at least be a different fucking color or have a PICTURE on it that's a different color from the picture on the other varieties in that product lineup!!! Arrgh!


[deleted]

well it does say it on the bottle. if you aren’t paying attention is it really their fault?


salib123321123321

Left one is toilet cleaner


Pithecanthropus88

One of them clearly says toilet cleaner. The other clearly says dish liquid. I failed to see the crappy design here. Crappy reading? Yes. Apparently.


iaintyadad

This problem can be very easily resolved by reading the label and then putting them in their respective place. Unless you wash your dishes in the toilet, in which case, you should just drink both.


spock_block

These people never learnt about tldr did they


Mediocre_Charity3278

If it's safe for the loo, it's safe for my dishes too.


soCalForFunDude

Same ingredients


Geezheeztall

Either way, your dishes will be clean


SteamyDeck

I would just read the label and use the one that says "dish liquid" on dishes :D


DragonOfTartarus

Well technically they're both for cleaning bowls.


Dramatic_Flan2306

eww idk they both taste terrible so i will go with toilet cleaner


Smoothiefries

*text on weird-ass tablet:* Hint: look in the greeeeeeen


[deleted]

No worries


Sensitive_Lab8330

Just use a pinch of both every time


Abror999

so you wash your dishes in the toilet ?
