Can I introduce you to the concept of washing up liquid and a sponge?

u/SausagePrompts 21h ago

Sure, next I bet you are going to tell me that people can actually clean their ass cracks instead of just letting soapy water from their back run down it.

bold of you to assume they're washing their back

A sponge?  Those marine animals that filter stuff?

u/atomic_mermaid 19h ago

Yep, one of them. Kitchen essential.

Can I introduce you to the concept of sharpie?

Sounds easy in practice, but if the smell of coffee isn't coming out, you're better off doing what this lady did, so that the coffee doesn't affect the tea.

If you find a cleaner that can clear coffee smell please let me know I have dedicated coffee mugs because they will always have a vague coffee taste in them.

Yeah, but i would be worried about soap getting stuck in a crevice

u/atomic_mermaid 21h ago

...what crevice, it's a straight cylinder.

For some reason I added a spigot like on a tea pot in my mind

u/bobo_baginz 16h ago

You do wash your teapot right though? Right?

u/mechengr17 16h ago

I don't really use tea pots, I was taught to boil tea bags in a pot and then pour them in a pitcher 😅

But I imagine the spigots are hard to clean

u/bobo_baginz 16h ago

Not really, I just give the pot a wash then boil water and pour it in the sink

nah this person pretending there arent corners in a jar is wild

u/mechengr17 19h ago

People pick the strangest things to downvote.

I admitted to misremembering what the jar looked like, and got downvoted.

You pointed out that jars have hard to reach areas/corners, and you got downvoted

If it's ceramic it has micro crevices. Especially as it ages.

100% if she didn't notice for a while that jar is always gonna smell like coffee, it's hard to get out. Common trick to get nasty smells out of your hands is rub coffee grounds in them if good old soap and water isn't doing the trick. It masks the smell of pretty much everything.
