This experiment is not for everyone.

After all not everyone will find this as funny as many others. You may even find it passive-aggressive that she did this rather than being honest about what was troubling her and communicating like an adult. However, whatever your thoughts may be, it is certainly interesting to see how long it takes her family to start picking after them when she stops doing all the housework.

It isn’t as if they didn’t notice at first. perhaps they thought, she would eventually do it after all? Whatever was going through their mind, this actually underlines a very important issue. And thankfully this Twitter user brings us along with her as she navigates the few days where she is ‘trying something new’. So scroll on below and take a look at what happens.

And so it starts with already the dishes piling up.

And it quickly takes a turn as things continue to escalate.

They are now left with emergency cups.

And things are not looking up for them in this lockdown.

There are piles everywhere whether, of bodies or clothes, we can’t tell.

The food is slowly but surely rotting away.

And it also seems like they are finally out of toilet paper.

The water still works.

But they might have to resort to leaves to use as toilet paper in the bathroom.

So much time has passed, that things have morphed into something completely different.

There are also some other surprises hidden in there that we don’t know about.

Apparently, someone forgot to pick some leaves to bring to the toilet for their needs.

Things have continued to escalate with them drowning in used plates now.

They don’t have enough water to wash the bowl so they make do with scraping everything off.

Finally, it seems like the world may be getting back on track as they fill the dishwasher.

Whether they will turn it on in the next few days is a mystery to us.

She also goes on to say how this is all in good fun and Twitter shouldn’t take everything so seriously.

It is quite clear that lockdown has made humans do weird things.

Some people criticized that she should communicate her needs instead of being passive-aggressive. From what she writes, she communicated her needs over and over and her family didn’t change their behavior. So what she did was totally justified and also hilarious.

Also, it should not be her responsibility to carry all the mental load. If there are dishes to be cleaned, she should not have to remind people to load the dishwater and also actually start it! -Marianne

The dishwasher remains turned off.

In other areas, things are looking up.

And they will no longer have to resort to using leaves or harsh paper.

This may not seem like all of this has a reason but it does.

They are running out of pans as well.

This is when everything changed.

Her family finally turned on the dishwasher.

And everything is finally alright in the world.

That is not all, as the husband has decided to finally clean as well.

Which has left her with more questions than answers.

All the piles of unidentifiable things are gone.

And she can finally rest easy.

Jokes aside, everybody wants to feel appreciated for all they do.

And according to what I have seen here, that is all she wanted as well.

Many people were not on board with it, however.

And called her out for being passive-aggressive.

While others shared their own experiences.

Everyone has bad days.

She is clearly not alone in this.

To the people that say “Just talk to them about it,” when you’ve talked to them for years and nothing changes, it’s time for a little action. Or in this case…doing nothing. When my parents split up when I was 17, I had no problem taking care of the house and doing the cooking because I spent half the day at school while my father worked full time. Fast forward to 19, and I’m going to school at night and working a full-time job during the day.

My father starts complaining that the dishes aren’t getting done and the laundry isn’t clean. He said, “I work a full-time job!” I said “Yep…I work a full-time job too AND I go to school. I never eat at home because I don’t have the time. All those dirty dishes are yours.”

He got quiet. “Well I’ll do them during the week and you do them on the weekends.” Ok. Not only did I get through…he started making breakfast for me so I would at least eat something before heading out the door. -Carol Emory

They might have finally stopped taking what she does for granted.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you think she should have just communicated that she was tired or we shouldn’t make such a big deal out of it? Comment down below and let us know.
