In the neverending saga that is sharehouse optimisation, residents of a French Quarter terrace house (known by tenants as Myrtles McMansion For Troubled Teens) have cracked a new storage method set to rock the culinary world.
To save space in the lower cupboards which are infamous for spilling their entire contents whenever opened, the housemates formed a silent pact to keep their oven tray in the oven when not in use.
“D’you know what? I didn’t even do it on purpose,” bragged tenant and recovering Candy Crush addict Lionel Bashir (24) as if this was one of many contributions he has made to his household.
“I just left it in there after I cooked the nuggets I put on after the first lot of nuggets burnt while I was watching a compilation of the nude scenes from Game Of Thrones.”
“Pretty smart.”
Logistic technicians have been quick to point out the shortsigted nature of this plan citing potential disaster if two people need to cook at once.
According to Bashir this is no issue as he and his other housemates go out of their way to never see each other, especially in the kitchen.
“You bump into someone in there and then you both feel like you have to do some cleaning. Which makes sense because it looks like shit in there.”
