Always read the fine print

Today, I noticed that my coffee mug has a 'dishwasher safe' label. I've been hand washing it for a year. FML

A year? Hand washing a coffee mug should only take a minute or two. What kind of crazy germaphobe are you that you'll wash something for a year?!?!

At least it wasn't the other way around. Still, it's worth taking time to read the directions.

your coffee will taste way better in hand washed dishes dishwashers leave behind a residue

If you can pour boiling water in it then it can be washed in the dishwasher. Coffee mugs are inherently dishwasher safe. js

Not all of them. I once put in the dishwasher a coffee mug with a pretty cherry tree design that sprouts flowers when you pour a hot beverage in it. Half the tree folded on the other half, and the flowers transformed into little balls of gunk. Now I have a coffee mug with a heart that reddens when you put a hot beverage in it, and you can be sure that I hand wash this sucker.

FML, because washing a coffee cup is so tedious. Shoot, I probably wash my coffee cup once a year.

You mean there are mugs that are not dishwasher safe?
