Time for an admission: I, sometimes, simply lick the spoon clean and put it back in the drawer. It's out! I'll scoop peanut butter from the jar, eat it, "clean" the spoon, and shove it back in the drawer.
In my defense this apartment does not come with a dishwasher and I'm not about to soap, scrub, and rinse a spoon to protect myself from my own germs. That's a waste of time.
I do clean the silverware if company is coming. If I'm to entertain I'll clean this place up, but I have to know in advance. If you don't tell me you're coming by you run the risk of eating from a licked spoon.
P.S. The message of this post: I hate pop-ins. I demand a warning. I demand it politely of course.
P.P.S. If you're tired of random pop-ins, I suggest you start licking things too. Let the invaders know, as soon as they call, rather then burst in, the threatening licks stop . Rest assured, you're not barbaric, you just want the option to say, "I'm busy." We all want a lil' empowerment.

I'm ashamed.
Jar of peanut butter: $2.50
Bottle of dish soap: $2.00
Mental image of Paul licking a spoon and putting it back: priceless
I do it with a very guilty look. It's peanut butter though...can you blame me for wanting some. It's best with chocolate.
It's okay, I rubbed my asshole all over your shower wall on sunday morning.
Call me gay sir...but you're the one bringing up assholes.
what if its a suicide watch pop-in?
Good point. In that case pop-in.
