This is great! I hate when my husband presents his best guess as fact. I don't care that he's guessing, just tell me it's a guess!

If I ask what cleaner to use on marble and he says "use the all purpose cleaner" tell me that's a guess! Because the all purpose cleaner has citric acid! That's bad for marble!

I try to check everything, and Google anything I'm unsure of. He just does whatever feels right and then later says, "how was i supposed to know tupperware goes on the top shelf of the dishwasher? I didn't have one growing up." If you've never used an appliance before, Google it!! I've used a dishwasher my whole life, but when I became responsible for the one in our home, I read the manual.
