The other day my significant other was out and I decided to surprise her and do the dishes.

I loaded up the dishwasher and then realized we were out of the powdered special soap. Being a mama's boy and never actually having done this before, I substituted a generous amount of liquid dish soap. Thought it wouldn't make a difference.

Not even fifteen minutes later, upon returning to the kitchen, I found it full of foam.

My dishwasher exploded with soapy foam. Undefeated, I scooped up the foam and attempted to run it down the sink. That just created more foam.

So I scooped it up and tried to flush it down the toilet. That just ended with a kitchen full of foam, and a toilet full of foam.

Ten minutes before my wife comes home I discover that my frustrated whacking of the foam with a towel is diminishing the foam. I whacked the foam away, and ended up with ten soaking wet towels, but a clean kitchen. (Really clean actually)

I confess: I'm a total moron.
