Sponge Blog Scream Face


Sponge Blog Scream Face

Think getting old is tough?  Try being a sponge.

Only a year ago this young pup was happy and ready for action. 
After a year of scrubbing action, he has changed.
Oh, the humanity!

  1. I'm pretty sure that's going to show up in a nightmare. I knew I should have waited until the light of day to read your newest post! Now you'll have to decide how to dispose of him. Will he ever be truly gone???

  2. A year? one sponge lasted a year? Wow. That has to be a record. I loved your title too :)

  3. Kind of like a mayfly. It's not the quantity of the days; it's the quality. Which for a sponge, might suck, too.

  4. It was definitely a hard year. RIP.

  5. A year? Amazing, we've never had such a thing for more than a month or two before the Queenie cleaning krew dispatches it. Germs, ya know?

    1. We squeeze as much life out of a sponge as we can. Periodic trips through the dishwasher and occasional blasts in the microwave kill germs...or so they say on the internet and 6 o'clock news; they wouldn't lie would they?

    2. I always microwaved them until I read that the heat makes the bacteria multiply, rather than kill them.

      You're welcome!

    3. scientists reported that simply microwaving sponges (completely wet, never dry) for two minutes at high power killed or inactivated over 99 percent of pathogens in sponges that had been soaked in a “witch's brew” of fecal bacteria, viruses, protozoan parasites, and bacterial spores.

    4. I will have to look that up. I stopped doing it when I read that it worsened the situation, about a year ago. Probably a study by a sponge maker!

    5. I'm with Bijoux, how does 2 minutes in the micro kill 'em when you have to boil water for about an hour to make it safe? I've seen the advice that says 2 minutes is sufficient but have never seen actual study results to confirm. In this age it has become painfully evident that most news 'experts', let alone internet 'experts', are self-promoting-PR experts .......

    6. I guess the experts are part of the keep sponges alive conspiracy. We use a sponge until it stinks, then we put it in the dishwasher and then microwave. So far we have survived. If the rest of the world wants to throw them away every other day, which is all it would take to get germy, I have no issue with that at all...I guess it is a matter of choose your experts and hope for the best.

      Holy Cow, this was just supposed to be a silly post with a picture of a beat up sponge that I thought was funny. I have no idea how old this sponge is, I said a year...I don't know, I didn't think it was very important.

      Imagine if I posted on politics if a sponge gets so many opinions.

      I think I need to post on how I brush my teeth, pretty sure i do it wrong...up and down...side to side...I just don't know.

  8. A sponge doesn't last that long in my house, LOL, but what a transformation Sponge Blog made over the year! I change out the kitchen sponge weekly after I clean the kitchen since I use the sponge to wash the floor and same thing for the bathroom sponge but that is every 2 weeks because I only wash the floors in their every 2 weeks (small floors and we have a bathroom rug in there so we don't slip on the tile coming out of the shower).

    betty

  9. Is that man in the painting actually screaming or has he heard a scream and he is covering his ears in dismay/fright? I understand that Munch, the painter, put his painting in a microwave oven for 2 minutes to get it to dry. Hence the distorted image.

    God bless.

  10. Are they even supposed to last a year?

  11. To everyone, I don't know how old the sponge is, I just arbitrarily picked a year...it may be only a few months...I really did not think it was so important!!

  12. That is pretty twisted, so I will be laughing about it all day.
