I've got 2 of everything just in case. Dirty dishes can't pile up if they don't exist.

You underestimate some of us
You underestimate yourself. You'll get this.
I have a giant stack of plates. So they can go into the dish washer after I use them. Same thing with boxer shorts and the laundry.

Excuse me, it goes: Fork->Knife->Spoon->tea spoon.
I don't know what this is but it's certainly not in keeping with the lord's way.
Right chopstick -> left chopstick -> porcelain soup spoon -> packets of unused plastic foldable forks that came with the instant noodles

We're a family of three with a 19 year old, so our cutlery drawer looks just like this unless we ask him to bring all the dishes from his room.

I was so bad at keeping on top of washing my dishes in Uni that I absolutely decided to have exactly 1 plate, cup, mug,and each cutlery. Can't have more dirty dishes than you have dishes.
This is the way. Friends think I really like this one bowl. Truth is I like an empty sink, so I force myself to wash it by only owning one bowl.

See, if I had that guys place you would find these 4 utensils in the sink because I'm a monster
I did this for a few years and it was amazing.
as a single dad living with one teenager kid, the two plate strategy was a total game changer.
OP is a fancy one with their actual silverware. When i was a bachelor, it was box of plastic forks, box of plastic spoons, and box of plastic knives.
Saving up for singular silverware would probably save you money in the long run
I usually get them from take out places or the cafeteria. Never bought any single use items during my bachelor years.

you can honestly get by with just a spoon. need a butter knife? use the spoon handle. need to jab something? just scoop it instead. need to cut something? just cook it a little more so it gets soft
lol two spoons and a fork, what a waste. i only use one spoon for everything.
edit: ooh i get it now, they have a significant other who sometimes visits. (big spoon, small spoon)
Sometimes I use a small spoon for ice cream. Big spoon for cereal though I'm not fuckin around.
I have 4 of each just in case I don't feel like doing the dishes today

Did they borrow these from a restaurant. I just find it more menacing to just buy 1 of each, searched online and I can’t find a single reasonably priced utensil set that only sells 1 of each in the set.
2 words: Thrift. Shop.
Walmart sometimes sells utensils individually in store, they're loose in bins with a little plastic price barcode attached

You cannot convince me this man is not a serial killer.
This is me. It's perfectly fine until something, somehow, goes missing.
No pie server - what kind of barbarian is this?
They live alone, why have a pie server if you are just gonna eat it yourself?

That's more than enough. I've survived for long with just a knife and a fork. A good knife works as a second fork.
It's all he needs
Dude clearly not a big fan of steak.
Been there done that
He never has dishes
He is not your friend, he is just keeping you around for a time when he can't find some else and feels the urge to kill again.
I did this once, it was bliss.
Is your friend Bill Dauterive?
I actually love this. It’s clean organized and simplified!
Seems inefficient having to wash everything every time? Not sure. But it would irritate me to have to do that rather than doing more, once, at the end of the day.
