    I’m very surprised to read that Joy is a compulsive cleaner…

    Linoleum? Can it even be found any longer? I agree with Marg, I I cannot believe that she is cleaning and with Baku that she should simply follow instructions. As if! She will do what she is going to do, she will complain and she will try to get money as a result.

    OK, fess up….how many of you didn’t wash your hands before you read the heart-shaped plaque?

    You should always wash your hands before you go to the Pennys’ in the first place…. and put on elbow-length rubber gloves…which you throw away after you touch anything….Don’t purposely sniff anything… if Joy says “does this smell funny?” just say “YES!”

    And for God’s sake, don’t eat anything!

    As soon as you leave, go someplace cleaner…. like, say, the downtown LA bus terminal….scrub up with antibacterial soap and of course, have a nice refreshing glass of Marg and Susan’s ™ Super Strength Ultra Brain Bleach.

    Make sure coffee doesn’t turn??

    Make sure it doesn’t……. spin? go bad? change color? veer off in a different direction?

    Exactly what were they doing, drinking or smoking that makes the coffee do any of those unless they make sure it doesn’t?

    Maybe Joy is suddenly pretending to be a cleaner so Verl doesn’t find out her true obsessions. (And what happened to the finials)?

    Debbie, you and I are about the same age. We had linoleum in the houses I grew up in, and mom always called the refrig the “icebox.” She actually had an icebox as a child and didn’t have electricity until she was in HS—in Houston! I still call it an icebox out of habit, altho some older relatives called it a “Norge.” I can also remember being young and thin but that’s another story!

    I bet Joy thinks she cleans all the time, because every moment she’s not sitting on her big rear eating ho ho’s seems like an eternity. I imagine her swishing a dirty mop around sort of like she rinses her shirts! But she must keep up appearances, so at first glance the house looks clean. If you start looking in the corners or touching anything, eeewww. That is, if the smell from the Glade plug-ins doesn’t do you in first!

    Back at “work” we had janitors that “dirty mopped” the floors and then once a month would wax the dirty tiles. After 5 years what were once beige tiles looked brownish yellow. We had to move some furniture around and were hysterically laughing at the contrast between the original color versus what it had become.

    I thought first thing that I had wandered into an alternate universe where the Penny’s would become the model citizens (but they then would not even LOOK like the fat slobs they always are, so we could not know them! I think I’ll just take a deep breath and go back to BS.

    naturally I wash up with any contact with such folks, but there are many contacts that need more.
