Dishwasher Hats

Every household has one dishwasher-loading expert and at least one dispute about the rack geography that backs them up: forks up or forks down, whether pre-rinsing is mandatory or a waste of water, and who is actually running the system everyone else keeps breaking. The near-universal metaphor for packing the rack well is Tetris, which is why DISHWASHER TETRIS GRANDMASTER reads instantly even without a single word of explanation. "It's soaking" is the deflection phrase for the pan left in the sink instead of loaded properly, and it is strong enough as an in-group callback to stand alone on a hat with no other context. These designs cover both sides of the argument: the absolutist (FORKS DOWN, I WILL NOT DEBATE THIS; FORKS UP, NO EXCEPTIONS), the self-declared system (THE DISHWASHER HAS A SYSTEM AND I AM THE SYSTEM), the faith-based non-pre-rinser, and the reluctant reloader who sighs but does it anyway. This is a different household argument than Thermostat War, which runs on heating bills and a thermostat setting, not a rack. Every design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat. Pick the side of the dishwasher debate you're actually on.
