I took my second batch of laundry to the basement today only to be appalled by the sight before me. My first batch had been taken out of the dryer and was placed on top of one of the machines. The freaky bit being that everything was neatly folded! Everything including my personals. Like, ugh, what? What kind of a person touches another’s laundry?
The only other person in this world that I’d let touch my stuff is my mommy dearest and I know for a fact she didn’t drive down an hour to secretly fold away my laundry and then sneak back.
Ok, so I took my sweet time going back to get my laundry and ok, I would’ve been fine with it just being taken out and dumped on top of the dryer. It’s disturbing how neatly “everything”'s folded. I think I’ll wash it again.
lesson to be learned.. at least these gora people are refined enough to fold the clothes of others too.. desi would had thrown them at some other machine..
At my dorms, we were all closely knit and everyone knew when someone was doing laundry, and so usually one got a knock at 3 in the morning reminding one to take out their laundry lest it be put on fire. grins
I didn't mind my laundry being touched by people I knew, it's when you don't know who it might have been, that it's somewhat unnerving. :)
well, it’s kind of unnerving when you don’t know who did it. Although, my roommate and I often throw each other’s clothes into the dryer and out of the washer; if one has to use it on a run; which happens often when all the chores are done on the weekend. But tell ya something; when I first moved to Canada, I used to live with this sweetest couple, who are still like a family. One day I returned from college and found my clothes all neatly folded on top of a dryer and I was like .. I found out later that the lady of the house did it for me, which I think was kind of really sweet, and it happened many times after that; even couple of times by another girl who used to live in the same house. But, yeah it would be creepy if it’s some unknown ghost folding my laundry..
Are you looking for a solution...next time just set a timer and make sure you are there when the clothes are done...there are worse things that happen hayaa :) specially if it is a public place.

I suspect it's this gay guy, he's come running down one time before when my laundry was scattered outside the dryer, apologizing profusely, saying he needed to use the dryer.
May be he took my angry look to heart. But how would he know it's my stuff.
Anyways, it may be a nice gesture and all, but it's still an uncomfortable thought of some stranger having gone through my personal stuff.
I think you're both de-railing the thread, let's get back to discussing the gay guy who folded the clothes neatly as forecast correctly by myself earlier on.
we get these emails of ‘thanks to the person who folded my laundry’ on the dorm list
