This is the logic behind Japanese toilets having a tiny hand sink over the commode so you wash your hands with the water that’s being used to refill the basin.
Why not use it that way? You’re just going to pee in it later.
It's honestly fine, you're overthinking it!

I mean it is clean, drinkable water that is used to wash the toilet.
musubibreakfast@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Just piss over your hands like the rest of us, that’s plenty clean.
Viceversa@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
That tiny stink is very inconvenient for use.
FistingEnthusiast@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
When space is at a premium, it’s a great idea
Starik@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I’d never heard of these, and I’m looking at them now. It’s a cool idea, but without ever using one, I think I agree with you. The basin is necessarily tiny, forcing you to make a mess, and 30 seconds of cold water isn’t going to get all the soap off. Have any of you ever used one and found it satisfactory?
jdr@lemmy.ml 3 weeks ago
Just stick your hands in the bowl then
deacon@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Only for having a poo.
socsa@piefed.social 3 weeks ago
But then if I don’t wash my hands, the tank doesn’t get filled. I will not tolerate this level of coercion.
bilb@lemmy.ml 3 weeks ago
You will be coerced to tolerate it!

Hmm, dishwashers are designed to use as little water as possible. The drain doesn’t actually drain right away but might be circulated back into the system. No idea what it does with any fluids before it’s turned on but I wouldn’t risk it.
AugustusBeauvais@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
In mine, any fluids added before starting just sit in the tub at the bottom. The first thing it does after starting is run the pump though, so piss away I guess…
skankhunt42@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
I’ll be over later today. Thanks.
CannonFodder@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Yeah, but not all of it. It leaves an inch or two down in the motor/ filter area.

I like how you answered this seriously as if people are actually going to try pissing in their dishwasher lmao Thanks for the info though, I’ll remember this next time I gotta take a piss 👍
SparkyBauer44@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
This is why I poop in the washing machine. Bigger opening so I can’t miss. And, as we all know, it will get… Washed.
TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I had always cleaned the turd out of it. But now I know I can shit directly into the bleach repository my life should improve.
0x0@infosec.pub 3 weeks ago
Now im curious about the design of both your machines, all the regular styles i know of are definitely easier to unload in the dishwasher. Do you have a top loading washing machine?
SparkyBauer44@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
See, this is where the nuances enter. My dishwasher is my hands, so I much prefer my top loader washing machine and keep on super load wash to get the corn kernals clean enough to pluck before the dryer.
jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 weeks ago
I’d say most people of average height can easily go up on a washing machine just with their ass. And if it’s too load, then you’ve certainly got a nice big hole to shut in. Probably bigger than most toilets, though both come in different sizes. That central agitator might get in the way though, so you’ll probably have to shit to the side of it, or in front or behind. Usually I also have to piss while I shit, and that would get in the way there too. Especially considering splash back. Now ironically you are literarally directly next to running hot and cold water, but you can’t use it to wash your hands, which one should do after shitting. So you might have to go to the bathroom sink anyway. So if you were trying to save yourself a trip to the bathroom you didn’t save any time there. Wiping is probably okay if you have a dirty laundry basket or pile close by. You’ll have to be sure to while with appropriate colors and loading groups. Like you wouldn’t want to do one wipe with a towel and another wipe with a delicate item. Again your old friend toilet paper back in the bathroom is saving you time, as you don’t have to sort anything before you wipe. The more I think about this, it’s almost as if having a specific appliance or device specifically designed for accommodating the act of defecating is probably preferable as opposed to repurposing other devices not specifically designed for that purpose. In conclusion, I have my doubts about the efficacy of these life hacks.
ironycanal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 weeks ago
This is just blatantly untrue. I know for a fact its possible to miss, especially if you’ve got some food poisoning and your balance isnt the best. You’ve clearly never seen a full sized dish washer. I’ve seen industrial laundry machines with smaller openings.
SparkyBauer44@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Oh, my mistake, I was referring to the top loader being a bigger opening that a standard toilet, for peons. Plus there is a nice little cup in the middle for your testes, as to not soil them in the ensuing melee.
BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
Piss in the dishwasher? I’d rather not. I got fired the last time I put my penis in a dishwasher. To be fair she was only 19…
ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
That’s how you keep her from getting pregante.

A share a world with these people who have these specific thoughts. I’m not angry about it or anything, just a realization.
Entertainmeonly@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
They are also able to vote. That does upset me to a small degree. If they are willing to piss in their own dishwasher what are they willing to vote into law?
NerdyTimesOrWhatever@lemmy.today 3 weeks ago
Urine powered dishwashers of course

I think it’s natural for people to have unconventional ideas. That’s how humans evovle.
Especially if they have the stupid ideas before they have children.

Which dishwasher? The poop knife dishwasher?
PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
It’s all pipes!!!
bhamlin@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
In this house the poop knife is hand wash only, thankyouverymuch.
YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 3 weeks ago
Also with very gentle detergent! We care about poop knife.

Poop knife is all fun and games until you cut yourself with it.

Piss in your pasta water, you’re about to throw away the water anyway.
PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Why salt the pasta water. Just cum in it like a normal person.

This guy I knew who worked at a dishwasher factory said that when clients or investors or whatever would come in, they would put a birthday cake in one of their demo units and take them on a tour of the plant and when they came back they would open the machine and the birthday cake would be completely gone, spotless.

Do you just pee straight into the sink? Cuz that’s a little odd tbh.
lb_o@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Yeah, dishwasher is more preferable than the sink. Sink is gross.
ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 3 weeks ago
I think it’s doing a lot more cleaning than it needs to, considering industrial ones in restaurants take less than a minute
JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 3 weeks ago
Ime dishes get precleaned more before they go into the industrial dishwasher.
You scrape in the trash, scrub in the sink, and rinse/sanitize in the dishwasher. At least that’s how my kitchen was, like a quarter-century ago.
PhoenixDog@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
I worked as a dishwasher maybe 15 years ago? Nothing needed to be scrubbed. Scrape and put into tray. Once tray was filled slide into dishwasher and pull down handle. Wait about 60 seconds and pull up handle. Slide rack out. Receive 4th degree burns without using a towel to grab dishes.
ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 3 weeks ago
I used to have to do more precleaning than that with a home dishwasher before I watched Technology Connections
FluorineBalloon@programming.dev 3 weeks ago
I think a lot of the time involved is to keep the process quiet, an industrial dishwasher is fast but loud as fuck. I wouldn’t mind being given that choice with a home dishwasher though.
YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 3 weeks ago
Also way hotter than a residential one. I actually cooked salmon in one when I worked on a cruise ship. Surprisingly effective.
Tiral@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
That’s how some cooks are with deep fryers. Drop it on the floor? It’s cool tmit all dies in the deep fryer.

Some say pee is sterile, so it might sterilize them for you.

April, you’re supposed to be a maid
kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
First cycle of the dishwasher is just a hot water rinse to get a head start on removing debris that gets drained away. Then it refills and deploys detergent and spends most of the rest of the time in this cycle before rinsing and drying. So, I mean, I don’t recommend it, but it will be drained a few minutes into the cycle and the dishwasher will actually clean with detergents after with no pee left. So, it really won’t hurt anything besides your relationship with your family/roommates.
SethW@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Are you not adding detergent to the prewash!?
LordKitsuna@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Quick bury them in the multi hour technology connections dishwasher Playlist!!!

You can if it needs it for baked on food. It’s not necessary for most washes though
