Kewl, **Rue**! It’s fun to get new toys, ain’t it? I didn’t get a new dishwasher this weekend, but [I did get a new toy.](http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1823287085) ---

:sniff sniff: I can’t figure out what this plate smells like. I detect fairies, Mom’s and a faint odor of moose butt. I like it! ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by swampbear \* > \*\ ***FCM** you can sit on my plates anytime. \*\* Assuming those plates have been in the dishwasher, this gives new meaning to the term, “bun warmer.” (A bun warmer, however, is probably best classified as a “small” appliance; I would have to say that a dishwasher is a “large” appliance; maybe we shouldn’t be mixing apples and oranges in this thread?) > [@](#): > > _Originally poster by FairyChatMom_\*\* > But I’ll gladly warm your oatmeal bowl into my toaster \*\*Aha! We ARE talking about small appliances again after all! Since **Rue’s** last thread was about toast, we see again the interconnectedness of all things, all is right with the world and we are a tiny bit closer to universal understanding. ---

Ooh, a new dishwasher. Cool! Oops, I mean, Warm! It’s not a plate cooler, after all! I bet you COULD warm a can of chili in the dishwasher. Maybe not to the temperature you _want_, but it would be warmer than room temperature, anyway. I didn’t get any new gadgets this weekend. I must go shopping… ---

> [@](#): > > Originally posted by **Rue DeDay** : > -Rue. (wondering if he can warm a can of chili in the dishwasher) **Rue** , old buddy, old pal. Everybody knows that you’re supposed to heat a can of chili in the _clothes dryer_. WIth your socks. Didn’t I mention this before? Grilled cheese sammiches are made on the iron, and Philly cheesesteaks are made on the engine block of your car. [sub]You lucky married guy, you. Did you like how I stuffed a “socks” reference in here? I had a really clever reply composed for your “Some Old Toast” thread, but I had connection issues and a funeral to go to. I stink.[/sub] [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/no-i-do-not-believe-that-plate-is-hot-enough/106263.md?page=1)
