That's Your Girlfriend: Expert Village's Utensil Washing Expert

Look, your girlfriend seems like a nice enough person. She just wants to offer friendly advice on how to keep the house clean. The thing is, the reason people leave silverware to pile up in the sink isn't because they just don't know how to wash it. Everyone knows HOW to wash silverware. Babies know how to wash silverware. The Muppet Babies know how to wash silverware. (What?) This is just like that time at the party when you brought her as your date to the party and she kept showing people how to hold their drinks because they had set them down on the table and she thought that meant they didn't know how to pick them up.

But I still think it's rude how you're always saying "tell me more, Professor," and "I wish I was an expert about something like how you're such a smart expert." She should break up with you. Because you're a jerk.

(Thanks for the tip, Louis.)

I was really hoping for some tips but she disappointed with that 2 for 1 shit.

I like to let the water run non-stop right down the drain for about half an hour and then scrub my five sharpest knives at once. It's really the most expert way to wash silverware.

No, she gave you USEFUL, TIME-SAVING TIPS on how to wash silverware.

You should thank her, now you can wash your spoons twice as fast.

First of all "BLAM I have two spoons done" does not in any way equate to "Have fun at dinner." Secondly, how is that in any way different than washing two spoons separately, other than the fact that you are holding them at the same time?

This would have been MUCH better if they got Billy Mays or Vince from Shamwow to do it. Those guys would really SELL washing two spoons at the same time, you know?
Utensil chick, your "bam...I have two spoons done" is pathetic.

I feel like she knows so many other utensil washing tips but she's keeping them to herself! greedy bitch.

she lost me 20 seconds in, b/c we all know the utensils are the easiest part, and you always leave the pots and pans for last/to soak in the sink for the rest of your life....

Don't you ever get the feeling that there's a secret contest to make the least educational Expert Village video ever and you just weren't invited?

This reminds me of the time I had to give an informational speech to my middle school English class. I picked throwing a football. But I didn't really know why. Or how.
