My german mug, with all the Länder states on there. A polish mug. A mug-mug. A coffee mug. The Oktoberfest beer stein. The boring mug. The cat and owl mug. The cat mug. The pukka mug. The homer simpson mug. ...

Bita both ey?

[-] FloatingAlong@lemmy.world 2 points 15 hours ago

That's not nearly enough coffee cups.

Just can't see how deep the cabinet is

[-] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 7 points 22 hours ago

We do both. We have organized dishes in one cupboard, and an absolute cluster-fuck in the one where we keep all the kids' dishes and water bottles. In 30 years it will be that cupboard that our grand-kids pull an old plastic Barbie cup out of and have to give a quick smell test before pouring their drink into. You know the one.

I suspect that to some level this reflects how varied one's path through life has been.

Certainly my own varied collection of mugs and cups is mainly the product of having lived in many different places and having picked new mugs up along the way. Also I'll keep old mugs around even after they're chipped because they're associated with my memories of places I lived in before.

That said, maybe a varied life and a hodge-podge collection of mugs are correlated and have a common cause, rather than having a causal relation - it makes sense that the kind of people comfortable with moving to places were they don't know anybody (and even with different cultures, if they change countries) would also be comfortable with a less than perfect collection of cups and mugs.

I am a right cabinet person forced to have a left cabinet because I am too poor to throw away perfectly good mugs and usable glasses just to have a matching set.

[-] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I just kinda accumulated pints and whiskey glasses and one day I realized I have no "regular" glassware. Then my girlfriend moved in with like 30 mismatched mugs and we are now almost exactly left cabinet.

Which absolute psychopath has the one on the right?

[-] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 48 points 1 day ago

Only IKEA and Pottery Barn photographers I think.

In no uncertain terms: how dangerous are you?

[-] Cypher@aussie.zone 43 points 1 day ago

I have extensive knowledge of state forests

[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

It's worse than I imagined.

[-] Asetru@feddit.org 6 points 1 day ago

Is that a special case of state spaces?

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 1 points 22 hours ago

A lady we used to be friends with was like this.

She was too intense for us so we stopped hanging out with them and then our house cleaner (that we both used) told us they quit.

Turns out our ex friend was too intense about getting the house clean for our house cleaner and we had to promise not to tell the friend that our cleaner still worked for us to keep her.

Claudia clean day has been going on every other Wednesday several years strong and we're very happy with her!

But seriously, how bananas do you have to be about getting things clean for a house cleaner to say "this is too much"?

When I first met my wife her cutlery drawer was so organised that the cutting edge of all the knives faced the same direction and the forks were all lined up on top of each other.

I nearly ran.

Yeah honestly. My kitchen looks exactly like this. I have all the same glasses and my cups are a wild mess, together with a bunch of random glasses i collected over the years

[-] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

Same. The matching fancy side collects dust. The silly side gets used til things break.

I'm a little from column A and a little from column B.

[-] Rajtinka@lemmy.world 34 points 1 day ago

4th type .. cupboard empty. Everything on the counters! ADHD ftw!!!

[-] ThePantser@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 day ago

Everything on the counters dirty

[-] areakode@riskeratspizza.com 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Me: Guess I have to wash a glass if I want to get a drink.

My kids: Guess we're drinking out of flower vases this week!

Unless you're 8 feet tall most cupboards are like this, no?

[-] tetris11@feddit.uk 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

You forgot the cup hooks underneath, and the large drinking steins/tankards/catfood on top

[-] WanderingThoughts@europe.pub 5 points 1 day ago

Other way around. The nice sets on top, the regularly used collection of oddities below.

[-] irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 1 day ago

Normal human and hotel

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

I was not made to have matching sets of anything.

[-] NABDad@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Am I the only person who puts glasses in the cabinet upside down?

Also: left side, but flipped.

[-] Strawberry 7 points 1 day ago

I enjoy my water with extra dust

[-] Damage@feddit.it 5 points 1 day ago

I put them in an alternating pattern, they take less space that way

[-] Lemmling@feddit.org 1 points 1 day ago

There are only two options. What would be a third?

[-] RichardDegenne@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago

Two glasses, both of which are in the kitchen sink.

[-] TroublesomeTalker@feddit.uk 2 points 1 day ago

Uh. We have both of these. The home cupboard and the guest cupboard.

[-] angrystego@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Why not both, exactly like in the picture?

[-] squirrel@piefed.kobel.fyi 10 points 1 day ago
[-] jellyfishhunter@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

And always drinking directly out of the bottle

I am left bottom shelf, right mid and top.

[-] axexrx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I have one cabinet with matching sets of wine glasses, tumblers, Collins, 4 martinis. Also all the matching sets of dansk plates, bowls etc.

Then theres another on the other side with all the mismatched glasses, branded pints, plastic cups, kids cup Disney jam jar cups, etc, and random plates and bowls and stuff.

[-] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

cabinet door opens to the left, so I can reach in with my right hand

[-] Madzielle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The right side is when you first get a place and start with nothing, the left side is after living there for years.

[-] Furbag@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I am the left, but I strongly desire to be the one on the right , I just can't bear to part with all my random cups and glassware that have special significance or sentimentality.

[-] stopforgettingit@piefed.social 6 points 1 day ago

my glasses match but my mugs don't

[-] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

i’m both - dishes I use on the right the ones I don’t on the left
