During the kitchencounterattack, there was a dishagreement about the dishpute which caused much dishcord, but the dishsoapopera prevented further sinkosis. - Stevenson0, 2007-03-09: 09:33:00

Dishonesty is the root cause, but I dishapprove of dishipating responsibility. Otherwise everyone ends up dishappointed. - Alchemist, 2007-03-09: 09:58:00

what a dishaster - Jabberwocky, 2007-03-09: 10:34:00

Yes, quite dishturbing. I think this is what is referred to as a mental dishorder. - purpleartichokes, 2007-03-09: 11:15:00

Mental dishorders need to be treated with pantrydepressants, but after that it's best to remain dishpassionate until the washing up has been complated. - Discoveria, 2007-03-09: 12:16:00

I sudspect that there is a dishproportionate amount of soapoforic information being disheminated here. - Alchemist, 2007-03-10: 12:39:00

Pronunciation: krok fye tz

Sentence: It was the same every night after dinner. The Crockfights would begin. The 3 roommates would brawl over dish duty. They were armor-PLATED, they acted like MUGS, they DISHED it out to each other, the KNIVES were out and they would SINK to new lows. We were BOWLED over by the MAGNUMtude of their aggression. Just because they had to do the DISHES. They put the CUT in Cutlery, SPOON-fed each other venom and sPLATTERed each other with soap suds. There was PANdemonium until we told them to FORK off or we would send them on a slow VESSEL or a flying SAUCER to CHINA. Nothing is GRATER than love and WARE is the love???

Etymology: Crock (an earthen jar (made of baked clay) also (nonsense; foolish talk); Crockery (tableware (eating and serving dishes) collectively) & Fights (an intense verbal dispute;the act of fighting; any contest or struggle) & Play on CockFights (a match in a cockpit between two fighting cocks heeled with metal gaffs)

Pronunciation: DISH cord

Sentence: Dishcord would eventually result when no clean dishes were left! Painful cries, gasps and sneers preceded the noisy "dishcht it" scene: easier to throw 'em all away and buy new ones, than to clean 'em up! Good cheap dishes instead of dishpan hands! One day someone finally decided to buy paper plates and be ECO friendly, saving all that water!

Etymology: From: discord and dish.
