Ok and secondly what is with all this fear of mold and bleach by you pimple farmers in this thread? You grow more dangerous stuff on your face than mold and bleach will ever be. Have none of you heard of blue cheese? Guess what that is? You guessed it Einstein incarnate, that's mold. And bleach is added to your tap water to purify it. So you're already eating this stuff, it's not gonna kill you. Well not in normal concentrations. I'm assuming you will rinse the damn things after you're done cleaning them.

I give this post a 9.5/10. It would have earned 10/10 but "pimple farmer" and "stuff on your face" were redundant. Keep up the good work.

Infections with the "stuff on your face" - golden staphylococcus, to be precise - are quite nasty - that bacteria is highly resistant to usual drugs (on the other side, your body usually keeps them in check).

Anyway, I can attest about eating food from jars (prepared at home) having mold on top of the content - by taking and throwing away the top layer (half an inch or so), the rest had no bad effect on me.

Really, it isn't the piled up crap of dishes you might be imagining. It was only a few plates and bowels. I hardly eat at home, I am usually dining out or taking my work to the coffee shop and spending hours there. By the time I come home, I usually crash.
I only noticed it because it was the first time I went in for a dish or utensil in weeks.
Laziness wasn't a factor, forgetfulness was.

And I like my lifestyle the way it is for now. I don't think my anxiety will allow me to be lazy.

anxiety creates obsession and laziness like what you are describing.

Leaving unwashed dishes in the sink because you come home and crash is lazy. Take the 2 minutes to wash them out when you're done and problem solved.

Also, remember that prolonged contact with bleach, especially at higher concentrations, will pit the surface of stainless steel. Google bleach and "stainless steel" if you're curious. I'm thinking here of the drain in the sink, or the sink itself.

The dishes will be fine.

Back in the old days people used to drink bleach when they ran out of water! MAN UP!

If you have to ask this question, your mother should be beaten severely for her lack of parenting.
