Now the interesting part of the question. Most of us are probably pretty against the idea of slavery, but if you managed to pull back the curtain and found out it really was poor little enslaved elves in your dishwasher scrubbing all your dishes for you, would you say anything, and go back to scrubbing your dishes yourself and also try and find housing and a support network and medical and psychological services for the now freed elves? Or would you maybe just try to forget what you saw and keep putting your dishes in the magic cleaning box?

Truly the greatest test of morality in the modern age

I just spent a ridiculous number of hours replacing our dishwasher. This is a task that shouldn't really take more than an hour or two, but there were complications caused by the previous owner of the house...plus I made the mistake of trying to fix our old dishwasher first.

If there are elves in that thing, I'd like to slap 'em around for putting me through that headache.

Probably the same elves Santa enslaved. That or the Galadhrim of Lothlórien.
