People Reveal Things That We Don't Clean As Often As We Should
[rebelmouse-image 18355532 is_animated_gif=We like to think we're cleaner than we really are. Sometimes, we declare we have "OCD" and our house or apartment has to be cleaned in a special way. Then, you move the TV stand out of the way and witness a horror of clumped hair and dust bunnies so ravenous, you've suddenly lost control of your home. There's always a spot we're missing on our cleaning day, and Reddit user, r/Indignant_Latina, wanted to know when they asked:
What is supposed to be cleaned often or at least regularly that no one actually remembers to clean until it's gotten really bad?
It's The One We All Knew
[rebelmouse-image 18355533 is_animated_gif=The fridge.
I'm cleaning my apartment right now, can confirm.
Never Forget: Lint Is Death
[rebelmouse-image 18355534 is_animated_gif=2,900 clothes dryers catch fire every year because people forget to clean out their lint trap.
*slowly stops sipping coffee
[rebelmouse-image 18355535 is_animated_gif=Keurigs.
The amount of mold I found in the office one made me never use it again.
Something For Sure We Never Think About
[rebelmouse-image 18355537 is_animated_gif=Exhaust fans.
IDK which are worse, the kitchen or the bathroom ones, but it's not something you think about too much, but when you see them you'll realize just how filthy they are.
Desert Towns, Take Note
[rebelmouse-image 18355538 is_animated_gif=I used to be a professional cleaner. Our crew would clean the ductwork in public schools over the summer. Some of these schools had gone years, even a decade without cleaning.
They would say "oh our AC is so sh---y and old, it barely cools down the rooms anymore."
But nah. These schools had compressors that could terraform the f---ing moon. They just couldn't force air through the supplies that were clogged with 10 years worth of dust (dead flesh).
SLIME
[rebelmouse-image 18355539 is_animated_gif=Toothbrush holder. Those things collect a lot of liquid which eventually turns to slime.
But The Alcohol Kills It, Right?
[rebelmouse-image 18355540 is_animated_gif=Beer taps and pressure lines and the ice machine at every restaurant.
...Guess Not
[rebelmouse-image 18347270 is_animated_gif=In some bars, the beer lines. You can really tell the difference between beer from decent lines and stuff not looked after.
Reading On Your Laptop? Don't Look Down
[rebelmouse-image 18355541 is_animated_gif=Keyboards.
Holy f-ck I did not notice how many crumbs and other things were stuck in between the keys.
High Price To Pay For Easy Breathing
[rebelmouse-image 18355542 is_animated_gif=Humidifiers.
They are actually one of the leading causes of legionaries disease and can actually be pretty dangerous (especially for the very young and very old.)
Did Anyone Know This Was A Thing?
[rebelmouse-image 18355543 is_animated_gif=dishwasher filter.
I just did ours earlier today because the dishes weren't getting washed.
Otherwise Known As: Jerks
[rebelmouse-image 18355545 is_animated_gif=Inside of the microwave:
Especially the microwave at work after employees let their uncovered food spatter (or explode) while heating it.
How Do We Escape?
[rebelmouse-image 18355546 is_animated_gif=Doors.
You know how often you push open a door instead of using the handle? It's a lot. Whether you're holding open a door for someone or don't bother closing it all the way, its there and it builds up. Same with trim around doorways.
Why do people feel the need to grab it? Black gunk just slowly builds up
Saves On Water
[rebelmouse-image 18355548 is_animated_gif=Gym clothes. You wouldn't believe how ripe they can get after just a few days.
People don't wash them after each use?? Wtf?
*slowly pulls off glasses
[rebelmouse-image 18355549 is_animated_gif=The hinges of their glasses.
I pulled mine off about an hour ago to get a smudge off and stared in horror at the waxy build up on the hinges
Take A Look At Al That Dust
[rebelmouse-image 18355550 is_animated_gif=CPU fans.
You rarely need to clean them but if you go years without touching it, it will start to affect your performance.
They Go With Us Everywhere
[rebelmouse-image 18355553 is_animated_gif=Your phone!
Wipe it down with alcohol every once in a while
Ew. Ew. EW.
[rebelmouse-image 18346466 is_animated_gif=Actually, air conditioners.
My mum never cleaned ours before it was used for the first time in a few months and while we were just under where it sits she turned it on and hundreds (no exaggeration) of baby red back spiders rained down onto us causing the biggest panic my family has ever experienced...
10/10 would recommend cleaning your air conditioners...
But Aren't They Self Cleaning?
[rebelmouse-image 18355554 is_animated_gif=Vacuum cleaner.
After every use clean the brush bit at the front, particularly of hairs.
Will save you money in the long run.
*slowly moves mouse to 'Clear History'
[rebelmouse-image 18355555 is_animated_gif=Web history
this is the correct answer
And With That, Happy Cleaning Everybody
[rebelmouse-image 18355556 is_animated_gif=Walk over to your faucet. You almost certainly have one in either your bathroom or your kitchen, because those are the places where people usually keep their faucets. (Faucets should not be confused with spigots, which are the faucet-like fixtures that are sometimes found outside of houses.)
Anyway, you probably clean your faucet fairly often, if only via accidental splashing during food-preparation or face-beautifying activities. There might be a little bit of residue on the metal -- the remnants of spat-out toothpaste, perhaps, or maybe stains left over from a mishap with some variety of sauce -- but on the whole, that valve-operated spout likely looks pretty close to spotless. What you don't see, though, is that there's a colony of potentially deadly microorganisms waiting just out of sight, possibly commingling with an equally distressing contamination of mold.
Reach over to your faucet, and take hold of it just above where the water comes out. If you twist that area just right, you'll discover that there's a detachable filter of sorts. Most people pay very little attention to this element... but if you're one of the unlucky souls who have been invaded by bacteria and spores, you'll soon realize that a dark slime has congealed within it.
You've been drinking that.
Fortunately, it's easy enough to remove the offending sludge: Just pour a bit of bleach into the unattached filter, rinse it out with hot water, then repeat that process until the mesh looks clean enough to stick in your mouth. (Don't actually stick it in your mouth, though. It's a choking hazard.) Run some more hot water through it after you've replaced the piece, then forget about it again. It's not like you really need to clean it that often, anyway.
After all... you've been drinking that.
TL;DR: There's a good chance that your faucet has been serving you with generous helpings of mold.

People Share Their Wildest 'I Can Fix Them' Dating Experiences
Content Warning: Mental Health, Suicide, Domestic Violence
We all know that we technically can't make anyone else do anything, and we certainly can't "fix" other people. Other people will only change or do something if they choose to; the only person we can really control is ourselves.
But some people really love to try, often to hilarious and terrible results.
Already cringing, Redditor Dapper_Algae6280 asked:
"People who entered a relationship thinking 'I can fix them,' how did that go?"
Time for an Upgrade
"There is a weird thing that happens when you 'fix' someone. They tend to think if you liked them broken, then they deserve better than you now that they are better than they were."
- TheRealLifePotato
"As horrible as it sounds, to have a happy, emotionally healthy relationship you need two happy, emotionally healthy people. If you want to be in that sort of relationship, you need to fix yourself first."
- inactiveuser247
"This right here. After three sh*tty relationships in a row, I realized this is a me problem. I took a few years off from dating to reflect and really learn to see red flags and understand myself so I wouldn't make that mistake again."
- MikoSkyns
No More Spark
"My now ex had PTSD, depression, and a variety of other issues she claimed. After two and a half years of dating (being my first and only relationship), she became more social, less suicidal, and overall happier as a person."
"She decided to cheat on me with someone else due to 'lack of communication' and us 'no longer having a spark". The irony."
"For context, we were 17 at the time, in high school, and I worked full-time hours with initiatives to hang out, which were refused. Red flags everywhere."
- elteragxo
"Your situation is eerily similar to mine, what the f**k?"
"I met a girl with mental and emotional issues and decided to fix them through a healthy relationship. She recovered and found someone else because 'the spark was gone.'"
- Aimlessdrifter8778
Misery Loves Company
"Now we are both broken."
- Brave-Butterscotch76
"The same thing happened to my sister-in-law. She married a very negative and miserable guy while saying 'he will get better' or 'we’re working on it,' and now she’s a very negative and miserable person."
- Moreofyoulessofme
Getting to Watch a Partner Grow
"At first we were only f**king. I don't know if I ever thought I could fix her, but I did fall in love with this beautiful lady with severe anxiety, depression, and trust issues after being in a domestically violent relationship."
"We were f**k buddies for about six months and I got a glimpse of her issues but I still went ahead and asked her to be my girlfriend The heart wants what it wants."
"We dated for a year and a half (two years since meeting), and I actually got to see her at her worst a few times, but I was finally able to get her therapy with a great psychiatrist and treatment, this is when I asked her to move in with me. We've been living together for six years."
"Four years ago, she had the worst breakdown I've seen. She went full-on paranoid, wall-scratching nervous, she was even doubting me and my motives to be there. It was a very difficult week, and she left the house and went to her mom's house in the middle of the night."
"Eventually, her therapist was able to get a hold of her and get her back to her senses. Her doctor then suggested that I also should go to a counselor or at the very least we should do couples therapy so we had strong bases for our relationship and we did."
"I now look back and won't change her for anything in the world, she has grown so much, and she glows right now. I now see her smile and it's glorious. She's achieved a great position too and it's amazing just to see how much happier she looks."
- Spiritual-Narwhal666
Not a Match
"I fixed what I wanted to fix, but that still didn't make us right for each other. In the end, I think she's in a much happier place than she could have been, so I think it was worth the time invested."
"We were wrong for each other, but at least we both came out better positioned to receive the happiness that would come to us later."
- MrWeb20
In Their Nature
"A couple of months into the relationship, I fixed him."
"After some irritation, he stopped peeing on the carpet. Now, my cat still brings mice, but I guess, that's just his nature."
- mobileJay77
The Importance of Boundaries
"I don't know if I would say that I 'fixed' her (and I wasn’t trying to), but I definitely taught my last ex the importance of being able to set boundaries and to stop going out of her way to please people who consistently hurt her."
"Eventually this would lead to us breaking up, but I have no regrets. I have issues of my own that were wearing her down and she did what she had to. Same rules apply. We’re both better off because of it."
- TylerTexas10
Happily Ever After
"She fixed herself and I fixed myself with each other's support, and we are living happily ever after, it seems, with ongoing work on ourselves and our relationship."
- DonPronote
An Uncommon Ending
"I didn’t fix them. But I tried my hardest to be patient and supportive while they fixed themself. Sometimes I was better at support than other times. Sometimes they were better at fixing than other times."
"It ended up being worth the patience. Things have been great with us for years now. I know this isn’t the normal outcome though, and I feel incredibly lucky."
- I_Invented_Frysauce
A Little Help from Our Friends
"Usually I'm the one people try to fix.. I think the repeated attempts definitely helped me. Now my current partner gets to enjoy the previous hard work."
"...I think I just got tired of hurting the people who love me and fixed myself, though."
- addrien
All Their Idea
"You can't fix anyone. You can only fix yourself, but if you really want to try and fix someone, you have to make it seem like it's their idea."
- BuhrZap
A Helping Hand
"I don't think you can fix anyone. You can only help them fix themselves, which is very different."
"If someone is actively trying to fix themselves, and you can actually be the person to support them through it, then it can work, but it could also not work."
"I do think there should be a distinction between the two. I mean, trying to fix someone is a bad idea, but if you like someone and are willing to support them in their journey to fix themselves, it's probably not the worst idea in the world."
- brooksie1131
Lesson Learned
"It went so well that they managed to cure me of the desire to 'fix' anybody."
"I’ll toss you a life preserver if you’re trying to save yourself. But I’m not jumping in the water with anyone so they can drown me on their way out."
"People who need to hit rock bottom in order to better themselves will use you to soften their landing if you let them."
- GlobalPermit5428
Best Friends Forever
"It went well but it didn’t work out."
"So we kind of fixed each other we were both at very weird points in our lives and we only dated for about one and a half years. We didn’t need a romantic partner but we did need a friend in each other."
"We’re both in better places now and the best of friends. We both want each other to be part of our lives just not as lovers."
"All and all, I say we got the best outcomes in our lives."
- CODMAN627
So Worth the Investment
"He was an Uber driver with only a high school diploma."
"I married him anyways and bankrolled his education because he was fun as f**k to be around, was the smartest person I’ve ever met, and loves me like I’m the only woman on Earth."
"Now, he’s a computer engineer and we are landlords together and have bought investment properties. We are very happy together."
"Partners work together to create success. I think selfish people ask, 'what’s in it for me?' Marriage is about selflessness."
"I’m glad I sacrificed for his education. His mind would be wasted otherwise and he’s a genius."
- BabyElephantWalks
In most of these cases, the situation went poorly after a Redditor tried to change someone, and for good reason. If that person isn't ready or doesn't want to be fixed, it's only going to damage the relationship.
There's also something to be said about unconditional love. If you don't want to date the person exactly as who they are right now, why are you even trying to date them?
If you or someone you know is struggling, you can contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988.
To find help outside the United States, the International Association for Suicide Prevention has resources available at https://www.iasp.info/resources/Crisis_Centres/Tough guys put on a facade that indicates to others that they always know what's going on.
But their confidence doesn't always match their intellect, which is probably why they cover their insecurities by walking around and trying to show everyone who's really the boss.
If that's the case, they should keep their mouths shut because not everything that comes out of their mouth needs to be heard.
Yet, it can be amusing to everyone else.
Curious to hear examples of these, Redditor PrototypeShadowBlitz asked:
"Reddit, what is the stupidest thing you've heard from the 'alpha male' community?"
You might find these guys at a bar.
The Dude Must Be Hungry
"Had a run in once with a group of young lads about something in a bar and one of them said we are top of the food chain bro and you will be the prey."
– insertitherenow
"'Whatever, mall ninja" -proper response."
– TheEighthLord
If The Shoe Fits
"That they were an alpha male."
– I_Have_A_Name37654
"The use of 'Alpha Male,' unironically is every indication that you're dealing with a child's understanding of manhood."
– 88Dubs
Brat Pack
"Me and my bros are all alpha males."
– SonOfDadOfSam
"I was skiing one time and rode the lift with a guy that said, 'I don't feel no pain. I live with 5 roommates and none of us feel any pain.' Okay, bud. That's a really interesting coincidence."
– NicPizzaLatte
They sure thrive on making sexist comments.
Contagious Femininity
"A coworker said, 'I don't spend too much time with my girlfriend because I'll become too feminine.'"
– Lazy_Natural6154
"FELLAS IS IT GAY?!"
– aliebabadegrote
Sexist Categorization
"I have been called a beta for saying that my wife makes more money than I do. She works in a more lucrative field and is more educated than I am, so it makes perfect sense that she makes more than I do."
"So I came back, and this post has really blown up. There's just a few things I want to clarify."
"1- I have only ever been called a beta online."
"2- I work full-time in project management. I have a master's degree. I have a 6 figure salary."
"3- My wife has a PhD and works in finance. She also has a 6 figure salary, it's just a higher salary than my own."
"4- I'm sorry to anyone who might feel as though my original post misled them."
– ExaminationDouble240
It's Teamwork
"A real man would be proud of his wife for achieving success, and not fall for that sort of insecure bullsh*t."
"It's not a contest, that's the real joke here. Good on you for seeing the big picture."
– Mrbeardoesthethings
Do these roles about parenting sound familiar?
Childish Things Are Too Girly
"Real men don't take their kids trick or treating is one that I heard recently."
– constructionguy89
"Related. Guys who brag about not changing diapers, not playing 'girly' games, etc. Essentially guys who brag that their only contribution to fatherhood is money and masculine things like fishing or football. Even then some of them brag about not paying a lot of child support to prove they didn't let the system take advantage of them."
"I can't imagine a life so empty my only accomplishment worth bragging about was being a terrible parent."
– Green7000
This Woman's Work
"I was told that taking care of my kids is woman's work. Apparently it's concerning that I try to spend so much of my free time with them. Oddly enough the meatheads at my grappling club think it's sweet I occasionally have my daughters' hair clips on and nails painted."
– MrFunktasticc
People discussed rules in the bedroom.
Never Submissive
"That a man is turned off when their wife/girlfriend seduces them, because if she wants sex and shows it she is a sl*t, also making the man the submissive one…"
– kamalaophelia
Stifling Emotions
"Not the whole community, but was cuddling with a guy once and could tell he was trying not to get emotional over something that was bothering him. He said, quite literally, 'it's not alpha male behaviour.' I told him that I liked that he showed emotions sometimes, and he looked disgusted by the fact that I pointed it out."
– LambLifts
In high school, a classmate who was on the football team said I was a "sissy" for listening to classical music.
The other classmates laughed at me, which was hardly surprising since all of the guys on our unbeatable football team were considered stars on campus.
This kind of mockery was a typical day for me.
I can laugh at their idiotic comments now but back then, I don't know why I ever let them get under my skin.
We've all done things, or in some cases, regularly do things that others might consider weird.
Even so, we often feel no shame or embarrassment and embrace how unusual these habits are, and take our friends teasing or laughing at us for doing so in stride.
Sometimes, however, we might not like to advertise some of our unusual habits or actions and make every effort to keep them a well-guarded secret.
As raised eyebrows are much easier to take than blatant judgment from friends and peers.
Redditor Key_Nectarine_1969 was curious to hear all the weird things people have done which they still keep under lock and key, leading them to ask:
"What’s the weirdest thing you’ve done that you could only tell people anonymously?"
The Devil [Dogs] Is In The Detail...
"All throughout middle school, there was someone who tucked unwrapped Hostess Devil Dogs into the toilet paper dispensers in the bathrooms, so that when you pulled some toilet paper out, the devil dog would fall out into your hand."

"At that moment, the booze decided to hang a u-turn."
"The trash can was out of reach and I couldn't risk standing up from the toilet for even 5 seconds."
"The closest receptacle was the bathtub."
"I managed to turn in such a way that I could keep shi*ting in the toilet while projectile vomiting into the tub."
"Both ended up clogged, and there was no plunger."

Things Best Left To Professionals...
"My partner is weirdly prone to cysts."
"I had to drain a 3 inch cyst on her back (thankfully she had a dr's appt the next week), then multiple other little cysts on her legs and chest."

A Little Fantasy Now And Then...
"When I was younger I joined an international dating site that I figured was a scam."
"Put a black square as my picture and gave myself a fake name, and then looked through their users."
"And after about 10 minutes I had like a 100 messages."
"Most of them were messages telling me how handsome I was or how these women fell in love with me at first site."
"Now I knew it was a scam but when ever I felt down or got rejected for a while I would pop back on the site and read a few messages."
'Yeah it’s kinda cringy and probably pathetic but it made me feel better."
"I would just turn off that logical part of my brain that knew it was a scam for awhile and just pretend I was this popular and desirable guy."
"And it honestly got me through the day sometimes."- Demonking3343
dating app GIFGiphyIf anyone says they've never done anything they're ashamed, or at the very least less-than-proud of, in all likelihood, they are lying.
Or, more likely, they understandably want to pretend that it never happened.
Which might be a little easier than harboring a secret.
