    Angry sponge mops suck!

    Does anyone else hate sponge mops? I have a small apartment but it takes about 40 years to mop the floor. Who in the hell invented sponge mops?! This is the worst invention since the atom bomb. I spent about 20 minutes trying to mop the floor with a damn sponge mop! On my way to Walmart to buy real mop!

    Maybe you're using too much water or you're soaping your water too much. Idk, I used to use a 'real mop' which I assume you mean as the string type mops, but now that I have a sponge mop I love it.

    On a side note, this may be the weirdest post I ever replied to on MMO-C.

    Buy something like this: not one of those icky string mops that get full of dirt and bacteria because people just rinse them after.

    It's like a sturdy plastic, with a flat head that you snap a washable pad onto. It's incredibly fast to clean floors with, and you can easily wash it in a hot wash after every use. It costs a little more to buy, but they last for years, and the pads don't really wear out either.

    Failing that a really stiff hard plastic broom and a "floor cloth" over it: http://www.worldofstock.com/slides/PHO1668.jpg again fully washable and very cheap.

    I clean private houses for a living, and I use these every day, they are both fast and easy, I prefer the first option, but the second is cheap and easy as well.

    Swiffer mops are the bomb (not an atom bomb since you apparently hate them).

    Buy a swiffer mop. They're awesome. Or... fill your sink with hot water and dish soap, get a medium sized towel, soak it. Get bare foot, and profit. I did that before I fell in love with the swiffer :P but I still do it on occasion, luckily I don't have a lot of tile in my apartment.

    I used to work as a cleaner for a while and seriously those stringy mops did my head in. The mop head kept falling off the pole constantly and they were madly heavy. Nearly have nightmares about them.

    What do you consider a "real mop"

    Swiffer mops suck unless you have wood floor.

    Sponge mops and sponges are a great way of collecting bacteria.
    The most successful tyranny is not the one that uses force to assure uniformity but the one that removes the awareness of other possibilities.
