Mess and dust aren't gross. That's just mess and dust. I've never gotten queasy from mess and dust.

I'm talking about grimy bathrooms, filthy smelly dishes in the sink, counters a stranger wouldn't want to prepare food on, etc. If you own a cat or a dog, is that the first thing a stranger smells when your door opens?

I'm with you so far.

i have way too much stuff for the tiny apartment i live in so it is a bit messy. kitchen and bathroom are clean but if you value your life never open the closet. it is so full you may get killed.

There's a fairly new song by Patterson Hood about an old worn-out man in a dirty broken down house. I was all like "Dude, are you stealing my brain waves and shi+?"

Nope, no dirty dishes, no dust and no clutter for me or the wife. My wife is in poor health and getting worse so not sure how much longer we can keep it this way. I try to help her all I can simply cause I know how much she likes her house to look nice.

The house is not dirty but Mrs. Beast is a shopper. She just HAD to buy a glass Tupperware set which is apparently all the rage, which brings at 3 sets of tupperware. We now have two desk in the office/spare bedroom because she HAD to have a change in furniture and apparently selling the first desk like she promised is now on the back burner.

That is the story of my household, I think it is apparent that I have some pent up animosity.

There hasn't been a woman in this house in nearly five years. I fear the health department.

Most of the grossest houses I've been in are either women living alone or a couple, often with children. Every serviceman/repairman I know will tell you the same. One of these recent experiences of mine was a house occupied by three women (no men), the other terrible one is a couple with a kid. You would not be able to tell they have a gross house by meeting them.

Dude's one of the best songwriters to work in the last 30 years.

I'm severe asthmatic, so we dust and vacuum regularly. There's a side of the sink with last night's dinner dishes, but they're all rinsed. Daughter's bedroom could use a pick up, but it's only toys. We don't allow shoes, drinks or food on the carpet, so things usually stay pretty clean. However, with a 6 year old in the house, it doesn't stay spotless forever.

My sister in law is a Scentsy rep, so our house always smells like something fruity, pretty and queer.

My house is seasonally messy, its deer season so i got huntin stuff everywhere.

We have 3 bathrooms, i use only mine, when it smells funny, i use flu flu spray.

I dont let guests sit in my chair, i spilled doe pee on it. I sprayed it with some flu flu spray.

I got a dog in the house so im sure it smells doggy, i give him a shot of flu flu spray sometimes.

After the wild fires, my house smelled like smoke, flu flu spray kinda worked.

The kitchen aint my department. And i dare not enter the other two bathrooms, they prolly use scentsy and dont have plungers.
