I see that the man is very excited, but the dishwasher doesn't seem too happy about the arrangement.
Can you explain why that's funny?
Not the person that made the joke, but…
Calling her a dishwasher is based on attitudes where women are the homeworkers. I see the joke as taking the piss out of people with that attitude, not the woman herself. We all know that she is a human being with thoughts and feelings like the rest of us and no one ever thought otherwise.
Thank you for contacting technical support.
It appears you’re having a problem with HUMOR.EXE.

This type of humor has already aged. It'll die soon. No need to think about it.

Because Lemmy users are 77% men. Jokes like this are excused with 'satire' and if you aren't one of them you wouldn't get it.
Inb4 the hate, let me absolve with satire as an excuse before any of you start overreacting.
The man is excited because he will no longer have to hand wash dishes.
The woman is disappointed as she doesn't wash dishes and therefore puts a lower value on the time the man will save form no longer hand washing.
:p
Two people obviously don’t have a sense of humor.
Well, her name is one letter off of Cries after all.
My ex was so dead against us getting a dishwasher because he didn’t want to have to plumb it into a house we didn’t own and our landlord wasn’t interested in helping us out.
A month after he moved out, I bought one and it absolutely did change my life.
I also managed to flood my kitchen in the process 🙈
One of my happiest purchases in the last few years was an airfyer. lol
For real, thought everyone was overhyping them before I got one but it’s honestly crazy how much of a difference it makes and how convenient it is
@spacedancer @UhBell Airfyers are by far one of the best recent inventions ever made.
Right now I can't imagine my live without one of them.We almost brought ours on our vacation lol
God yes! I use it for almost everything
I don't have a microwave so I Air fry most leftovers. If I want popcorn I just make it on the stove. If I don't feel like doing that I guess I didn't really want it.
It’s old tech, but pressure cookers are really cool as well.
Not too proud to admit I got way too excited when I got my first Dyson. If anyone has animals with long hair, you'll understand.
My most treasured purchase is an $80 handheld vacuum that pulls all the cat hair from my rug.
My apartment doesn't even have a connection for a dishwasher but I'd take it
We managed to find a free-standing one with wheels and a nice top that just connects to the sink faucet. It's been pretty nice so far, might be worth looking around. We found ours 2nd hand for about $150, it was definitely worth it.
Yep was about to suggest this. There are similar setups for all in one washer dryer machines that are similar. I've seen tenants in bachelor suites or coin laundry buildings have both of these in a place. Pretty clever for a single person, because they pay very low rent in those types of places.
I do get excited now when going shopping for a moped or a set of bedsheets.
A couple weeks ago our city rolled out their new trash can program (with the trucks that have the side grabber arm thing). I got so excited when the new cans showed up (wheels!) and it was at that point I realized I'm getting old.
Never not had a dishwasher so I do not understand.
Lucky. Much time has been spent in my life washing dishes that I will never get back
Bruh I haven't eaten in days because I can't afford meds and food at the same time.
I completely get it. I see Price is Right clips now, or Lets Make a Deal, and losing my mind when they get a dining set. That shits would net me groceries for months.
I haven't used my dishwasher or dryer since I moved in to my trailer. Hand washing dishes and hanging clothes to dry doesn't take long enough for me to give a shit lol
But running a dishwasher (if you already have one and use powder and not tabs) is much cheaper in water heating costs than washing by hand.
As far as I'm concerned I'm not a grown up until I have a washing machine and dishwasher of my own.
I’m really bad about maintaining my dishwasher.
She doesn’t get nearly as many back and foot massages as she deserves.Lol my dishwasher has been broken for awhile.
I should really get on fixing it.
Or the age where you're finally excited to get clothes for Christmas.
I get it. I always found a dishwasher too expensive for what I'd gain from it. Doing dishes manually for one or two adults who are diligent about reuse isn't that much effort. But after being gifted a second hand one in excellent condition, I am very happy to have it in my home. The running cost is very reasonable. I'm unsure if I would replace it if broken. But for now it is serving me very well.
I'd still rather have the new car.
