I'll never understand why our roommate, who is a professional (and wonderful) chef has never learned the concept of "clean as you cook". Maybe it is because he normally has helpers but still...

It just isn't hard to rinse things and put them in the dishwasher as you go along. Usually when I am cooking, I do all the prep first and then clean up that stage. Later, I will use any downtime to wipe counters, put things away, etc. By the time the meal is done, there is very little left to clean. My roommate however will have 10 dirty bowls, tons of utensils, and a number of ingredients lying around at the end. Then, after eating, he goes into lazy mode and the stuff doesn't get cleaned until the next day. I don't mind helping out if we have shared in the meal but I'm not really interested when he is cooking for himself. Drives me crazy.

My first serious boyfriend was a chef. Same problem. I think they teach it to them in culinary school.

I do that as well, MBC, but it's an act of passive-aggressiveness. No one will cook around here except me, so the deal is that those who do not cook, clean. I can be very messy......

Professional chef's have paid dishwashers to deal with that. I too clean as I go...unless the sink is already full of stuff, then I shove as I go.

And why does the driver in the back of the line of cars in the left turn lane honk as soon as the left arrow appears? My son used to think I could start going before the car in front of me moved, but he was about four years old at the time.

I'll never understand the need to make and American Iron Chef. Obviously, someone didn't get the joke of the original show...

I'll never understand why the peasants whimper when I beat them with a tire iron.
