my mom got the "scrub mommy" then had the nerve to ask me to use it to do the dishes. i told her i'm a traditional male and i will not use a woman's sponge to do a woman's job. she looked shocked, but i stood my ground and in fact i went downstairs to the basement, got every plate that's been sitting with various sauces from my chicken tenders crusted on them, brought them back upstairs and slammed them in the sink. i told her she can use the woman's sponge to scrub the ones that didn't break. she started crying and saying she wanted me out of her house, and i told her "YOUR house? i've lived here my whole fucking life, this is MY house. you didn't move in until you were 27, that gives us both 42 years here so i own it just as much if not more than you since i was born here". i was seriously so pissed off. i went to her facebook page and laugh reacted every single dumb ass christian fundie bullshit post she's made in the last 7 years. what really pisses me off is i've send her a pdf of the god delusion and she clearly never even read it if she's still posting this bs. sometimes i blast ricky gervais standup at top volume hoping she might hear some truth bombs and come to her senses but evidently it hasn't worked.

I did mean this guy in my head but felt it was too specific.

What's really funny is that the only difference is the Scrub Mommy has a traditional sponge on the back half of it

but

They also sell a Scrub Daddy Pro that also has the sponge half on it without being referred to as female!

Yes, I do most of the housework in my home, how could you tell?

Tacticool Dish Sponge

[–] AernaLingus@hexbear.net 15 points 1 week ago

I guess it's the cleaning version of those tactical ass-wipes

So I was browsing the website and came across this:

Would maybe be a funny bit to go on their Facebook posts and use this to spin up some wacky conspiracy theory about the company using “woke DEI” to brain wash Americans into accepting a family with 3 dads from different ethnic backgrounds who are in a gay polycule raising their kids together.

To be fair, it's a very good sponge

Hims making a 2nd brand called Hers is the final boss of gendered marketing, beyond parody.

theyre good sponges to buy tbh

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago (10 children)

I'm anti sponge. Let me just keep wetting the best bacteria breeding ground ever and rubbing it on my food waste. I'll use it day after day.

[–] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago (4 children)

you squeeze the sponge out after you're done with it

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago

Ah, the esoteric Scrub Entity

For cleansing the Akashic Record

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I was too busy appreciating how good these things are on cleaning cookie sheets and dutch ovens to think anything beyond that.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago (7 children)

Just get steel wool. I don't get why people use anything but that and a cloth.

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 21 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Some jobs you want something harder than a rag, but softer than scraping metal on coated surfaces. My steel wool is mostly reserved for my cast iron.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 15 points 1 week ago

As a Cast Iron guy, don't even
