An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

These three bits of debris were making a racket in my dishwasher drain pump. (lemmynsfw.com)

It's a 2011 Kenmore entry model dishwasher. Broke one of the shitty brittle leveling plastic feet off pulling it out, now it's on a chunk of wood.

Here's the twist: This was last month. My roommate and I promised each other to inspect old plastic containers better. Yeah neither of us remembered, so there's another broken bit of plastic stuck in the pump again, making a concerning racket.

Honestly the filter cylinder is a bad design I should fix that. There's no reason the top should be so wide open to stuff falling from the top rack.

But now I'm kinda seething and want the thing to die.

The middle chunk of plastic is tomato sauce pigment impregnated. Very cool.

Have you considered it might be a were-washer, and it goes out at night and eats other kitchen appliances and cabinetry?
