I've bottled these feelings up for many years but I think it's time to just let it all out: why hasn't someone invented a machine that automatically folds clothes yet???  We have automatic dishwashers, automatic clothes washers, automatic clothes dryers, but... no automatic clothes folders.

Folding laundry is probably my least favorite thing to do in the world.  It takes forever, it's completely boring, and I find it thoroughly unsatisfying.  And you have to do it everytime you wash something.  Which I do pretty often.  At least once a month.

How many of you out there have every found yourself living out of the dryer?  I know I'm not the only one.  You know what I mean.  The prospect of folding all those clean clothes is so daunting, that you just leave them all in the dryer, and go in there every morning to get whatever undewear and clothes you need.  The truth is, I'd rather live out of the dryer and walk around with wrinkled clothes than have to fold all of them.  The times when I actually do fold my laundry, I do only because I don't want people to think I'm homeless. I need all the help I can get.  But I hate every second of the folding ritual. To quote Weird Al, I'd rather rip out my intestines with a fork... than spend one more minute folding laundry.

I feel a lot better now.  Thanks for letting me Unleash!!!!

I feel the exact same way, and also live out of the dryer. Wanna get rid of the wrinkles in your clothes without ironing and still live out of it, turn the dryer on for like 15 minutes or so before you get your clothes.

speaking of living out of the dryer...have you tried living out of the washer? Nothing smells worse than leaving laundry in the washer. Why in the heck does that happen? Maybe I will create a rant for this one.

Speaking of living out of the washer...I live out of my dishwasher. I mean, I just don't see ANY point or benefits in taking the dishes out of the dishwasher and putting them in the cupboard. That's really just bringing them from here...to there.

That is so true! [smiley=laugh] My apartment is tiny (but we do have a dishwasher), and there is no way I can store everything in the cabinets. DishWasher is precious space.

[smiley=cool] I have TOTALLY put stuff, and I mean non-dishes, in the dishwasher just to get them out of the way. It's a perfect place when your date, parents, guests, etc. are waiting outside the door, and you got 15 seconds to pick up before they become suspicious.

Folding laundry is the most annoying step in doing the laundry. This is the main reason why I absolutely dread doing the laundry. I feel you 100%.

I've heard they've created automatic ice cream lickers,
so they've created automatic ice cream lickers, but not automatic clothing folders?
Go figure. : |
