How clean is your house?
"Part of my kitchen floor are thick with dust, grease, part of a broken mug, a few mummified oven-chips, a desiccated used teabag and a couple of pieces of cutlery", says Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic. To most people, that's filth. To some of us, that's dinner. Tell us about squalid homes or obsessive cleaners.

Washing up
Before I finally got a "proper job" and was able to buy my own place, I shared a house in Wakefield with four other blokes, all of whom, despite being 25 or so, didn't seem capable of wiping their own arses without their mothers around. I was the only person who cleaned, washed up, put things away etc., and on occasions would go on strike to see if it would shame the others into lifting a finger (it never did).
One evening during such a period of industrial action, a housemate came home from work, poured himself a bowl of Sugar Puffs, added the milk then looked for a spoon. On discovering that they were all in the sink, he shouted "you dirty fucking bastards!", tipped the contents of the bowl into the bin and flounced off.
