Well I opened the dish washer, still dirty sealers.
Yup you're right Mrs something is wrong with it.
"Oh Great"!
Ah, did you put the parts back in the washer I had soaking.
Oh ya 🤣
That's what is wrong.
So I have my sealers in the dishwasher, because I'm too lazy to do them by hand..........

I'm sure I mentioned to a certain pirate to keep certain white things to himself.
But no, he likes to share.
Now if he really cares, he'll be shoveling it soon.

I would clean it... but that's me man... personally I cant stand to see them with chunks of crap on em.
Now... if it were a "numismatic" thing... then no... but in this case i would... and I might bezel it.
