Lets not waste any more time here...
Sometimes you just don't have the time for things anymore. You know what I mean?
Like, for example, washing dishes. I don't have time to wash my damn dish! So I often use paper plates. But we get the cheap kind of paper plates, and one of them never seems sufficient.
So I use two paper plates. How many do you use?
I have time.

Boy am I an unfunny ass.
I try to use real plates if possible.
Well if I have to use paper plates I tend to use two also.
I have all the time in the world to wash my dishes but I still use paper plates because I am totally lazy. I need to get out of that habit...
What's wrong with using paper plates?
Nothing's wrong with paper... it's just far, far cheaper to wash normal plates than buy disposables.
Is it? Washing dishes takes quite a bit of water if you do it by hand, and quite a bit of water and energy to run the dishwasher. Seems like it'd be about equal to me.
Since I eat at the Dining Hall, this is pretty much a non-issue for me right now.
Paper plates cause more garbage and I'm only allowed a bag a week. Stupid garbage people...
I use paper, mostly. I don't do the dishes, but I see no reason to make more work for my mom who does do them. I'm a real effin humanitarian.
We get the good plates, though, so only one per food stuff.
I use paper alot. For drawing, mainly.
My uni is not economical.
I actually enjoy washing dishes after a meal, something that I inherited from my grandfather. It's some form of zen meditation after I've eaten.
Take care all.
That causes more waste and kills more things. I don't mind washing my own dishes.
But when my parents let the dishes pile up for a week and then ask me I get pissed. See, this is how the people in my house use dishes:
Get a cup, get something to drink, drink it, throw it in the sink. Five minutes later I decide I want another drink. I repeat the process, as I will throughout the day.
And then the plates are rediculous. They'll pour chips out onto a plate instead of just eating out of the effing bag. They'll repeat the process throughout the day, just like the cups.
Then they'll wait until there's not one dish left to eat off of and say "hey John, would you wash the dishes?" and of course I'm not going to say no, not because they're my parents, but rather if I piss them off anymore than I already have they'll probably kick me out and I'll be homeless...so yeah.
Summary: Washing my own dishes is cool, and maybe a couple others, but not a weeks worth from 4 people that use as many as 12 people would.
I like Kung-Fu.
