can always run into a competitive laundry bitch like wacky tacky and then end up arguing over who gets to even do the laundry (or help)

@ this point its best to go full maynard and just fight each other irl

Life hack: if you leave your clothes in the hamper long enough the microorganisms responsible for the smell will eat each other and eventually die off and presto you got clean clothes, no effort required.

I bet you blame the colored clothing for this state of affairs as well, rather than a history of unfixed dyes and the oppression by warm water.

Front loaders are better since they cause less wear and tear during the process.

In the first week of my freshman year of college, I taught this guy in my dorm how to do laundry cause he had no loving clue and had never done laundry or any chores his entire life. I was thinking about what dumb gently caress parents he had not to give him basic life skills, but it turned out about half the dorm didn't know how to do laundry and word got out that I was the one to come to if you needed to learn about how to wash your loving clothes. SMDH all semester long.

This is actually almost true. Go there to do laundry and it'll feel like your home again. Then she feels like she's part of a complete family and not a prisoner in a lonely empty house with a husband that doesn't love her.

Not really they rock from my experience especially the new models which have a half a million settings.

Really fun hauling stuff up and down the stairs.

Also people who leave their wet clothes in the washer and forget about them.

i lived at an apt complex with a shared laundry room for a year. one time i walked in to find somebody had posted this long note about how somebody stole their laundry basket so they had to carry all of their clothes back in the rain with no basket and dropped their work outfit and got written up at work as a result and at the bottom in huge letters it said "gently caress YOU rear end in a top hat"

usually though the compartment where you put the detergent and stuff would just be clogged because idiots tried to put those gel pak things in and poo poo like that instead of following the very loving simple instructions

Here's a thought washing machine. Maybe spend a little more time on your actual loving job rather than singing your ditty you piece of poo poo.

In one apartment building I had a guy that refused to put in soap because he said there was already enough in the machine. Then he didn't use the dryer because, "gently caress that dollar fifty poo poo I'll just hang it up". I mean he at least used it right, even if he was poor, or pretending to be extra poor.

Sometimes there were people like that, but, they then put 3 loads of poo poo in the dryer until the belt squealed like stuck pig or burned out. Of course no one reports this so you come back to a big ol steamin pile and have to use a different dryer and pay more money.

Some idiot washed their couch cushions - the inside. That mostly survived the washer, but not the dryer. I pulled out the lint screen on the dryer and a bunch of dried navy beans came out. No idea what the gently caress was going on there. Occasionally you'd come in and it was like one of those roadside discos that you put the quarters in and take your top of and foam up your buddy with the broom and the power washer. People must have put dish soap in the thing and made a huge mess.

Probably my favorite was the guy who figured out how to kick the washer to get a free load, until whatever it was he kicked caused it to run endlessly with my crap in it. Had to pull the plug and basically flood out the room on that one.

In retrospect, given the kind of apartment that was, it would be better for people to just give up and not wash their clothing, than to try and Tim Taylor the apparatus and make a worse mess. Some fuckers even figured out how to use the washer, and the dryer. Except, they'd forget their clothing in the dryer for upwards of a week. We just started throwing the poo poo away once the pile of washed but never claimed clothing reached the size of the dryer itself.
