The student newspaper at University of Oregon just broke the story that the food service is cleaning potatoes in the dishwasher. So let’s hope the guy from Craigslist doesn’t work for UO.

> [@](#):
>
> The University’s central kitchen at Carson Hall has prepared potatoes - intended for the plates of students, faculty and staff - by washing them in a commercial dishwasher with a chemical cleanser…
> 
> The practice may have been occurring for as many as three years…
> 
> The employee … saw the kitchen staff running whole potatoes through the dishwasher using a commercial chemical soap called “Solid Insure.”…
> 
> “He said, ‘We’ve been doing it this way for years and it’s a very common practice … if it doesn’t hurt the pots and pans it doesn’t hurt the food,’” the employee said.

Your roommate’s beads can get a free cleaning by dropping them into Grandma’s denture cleaning glass at her bedside.

Remember the string of pearls in the old ads, for that fizzy cleaner?

In this context, I think it would be more appropriately titled _Remembrance of Things Passed_.

[QUOTE=kunilou]  
But dammit, the package says they’re _dishwasher safe!_

I was going to include a link here, which would have made this post howlingly funny. Unfortunately, while the beads may be safe, the link isn’t. So, just Google “anal beads” and “dishwasher” and go from there.

Well, hell. This isn’t funny at all, is it?  
[/QUOTE]

I just googled it and checked out the website (definitely NOT work-safe!), but it left me wondering, “Why the heck would anyone want a 3lb stainless steel dildo???” :eek:

What’s impressive is when you stick 'em in someone’s anus and they come out tied in a knot.

Whattaya, rip-startin’ a lawn mower? :eek: Dude, be gentle. Ease them out, one at a time, just as she (or he, as the case may be) begins to slide over the edge into ecstasy … er, at least that’s what I read once on a web site that I can’t remember and don’t have bookmarked!

Because if you ever run out of anti aircraft missles during an attack on your home, and you have rocket launcher, you can stick it to the bad guys in a quasi-metaphorical way.

No one ever expects the Three Pound Dildo Launcher.
