Anyone else have a regualar problem balancing their laundry in the washing machine or am I the only fucktard? Like 50% of the time I have to run to the washing machine because it's banging around. :?

    stop that

    put your laundry in evenly around in a circle as water is filling and the soap is in there

    wash 'like items' together

    wash all your jeans in the same load

    wash all your towels together

    if you toss in a bunch of shirts in with a pair of jeans, the jeans will throw off the balance.

    or you could just get a front loader...
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    If its been awhile you might wanna check that your washer is still level.
    You may need to adjust the feet on the bottom or just move it a bit to get it back in the right spot.

    You didn't by any chance accidentally leave one of these in your jeans pocket?

    my mom's dryer drum once became unattached.

    So when drying a load, the thing bounced around like a loose loud dryer drum.

    I wonder if the bowling ball jarred it loose?

    NAH!

    I have noticed that sometimes when I wash hoodies that still have the string in the neck, that the string will get tied up around the agitator causing it to slam around like it's unbalanced.
    Sorry there's no "that's what she said" joke, just a laundry tip ;)

    I had a friend who used to drum on his Mom's unattached dryer drum. True!

    This is the thread where I need to post the video of Moe taking bets in his bar for the washer vs dryer race...

    only I can't find it on youtube.... :(

    and no one probably knows what I'm talking about and you think I'm crazy... ;)
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    I know what you're talking about. Sadly most Simpsons clips get pulled from youtube.
