#and then something else wont transfer disgusting bacteria or whatever

ok so I'm not sure how common or normal this is, but my parents (and therefore my sister and I) always put empty milk cartons (for example) upside down over the drain in the sink so everything gets out before throwing it away

now, the problem:

I have asked my dad and his girlfriend repeatedly to clean away the remnants of their oatmilk after throwing away the carton since due to oat milk being a little thicker, it doesn't just all go down the drain, and you can't necessarily just wash it away either once it dries.

reason why I ask this?

because shit gets mouldy.

I do not like doing the dishes because... dirty. I can only do them with gloves on. Cleaning the toilet is a struggle.

y'all wanna know how we found out it's possible to take these drain plug thingies apart? because they were covered in mould and I was trying to figure out how to clean in between layers etc. that was a while ago.

dad also likes to say it's my fault for not doing the dishes sooner, like. what.

or comes with the "well when you live alone..." like mate I have lived alone for a year, in the UK, and didn't get mould in my sink because I wash things off.

pretty sure I'm the only one who's ever cleaned those things. don't know who did the dishes last time but didn't look like the drain itself had even been wiped off (hello oat milk, my old friend). after the dishes had been done. that's some selective cleaning lmao.

really love being greeted with furry dots pretty much every time I check that drain is2g.
