    Kind of establishing a system of shidduch right here on CP 🤔👍
    Most excellent 🤗

    So all I have to do is find a Nash Rambler ... I'll try substituting with a Dodge Neon with sleeping bags...
    Not only do we get excellent audio advice from the good Doc but I can see we also have a good source for dating tips ! 👍🤗

    You would be surprised at just how many times I see that happen. From dishwasher and range doors to cabinet drawers. People just don't think ahead. They just learn the hard way and most of them actually put up with it, move out and let other people deal with it.

    You’d really wish you’d put a 6” partition in that drawer the first time something got stuck in the back of it.

    We have a dishwasher/drawer interface issue in our (otherwise) very carefully designed kitchen. :#

    Let me guess....a new dishwasher was installed and the protruding handle on the dishwasher prevents a drawer from being fully opened?

    Yes, but actually worse than that, in that it was the original dishwasher & not a replacement. The locations of the dishwasher and a pull-out place for garbage and recycling cans was swapped (ahem)
    at my wife's behest :p
    and, well, there's a drawer that opens much of the way, but not all of the way, until it and the dishwasher handle wish to occupy the same space.

    Character, some would call it. :#

    In the original spot for each "feature", all would've been hunky-dory.
