I have a domestic question

[Watusi]

My wife is not here for a couple of days and I thought I would do a little laundry.

 

First of all I crammed the washer to the brink with towels, set it on the super setting and started the load. About 20 minutes later I noticed some water in the floor around the washer, not a lot, I'd say maybe a pint or two. Is it possible this happened because I put too much stuff in there? It was really crammed full, and I was kind of proud of myself for getting it all in. Or is this a sign of something more serious. The washer is only about 3 or 4 years old.

 

Secondly, can you wash black football pants with jeans and tshirts? I hope so because I can knock out the rest of my stuff in 1 load.

 

Thanks in advance.

Check the end of the hose that runs to your utility sink (or the utility sink drain). If that's not clogged it was probably too full.

 

As for your other question, that would only work if you add a lot of bleach.

Man, I was hoping that would go unnoticed by everyone else.

Never wash whites with colors.

Never over stuff the washer.

 

Bad 2C!

The football pants with t-shirts depends on the color of the shirts. White? No. Light colors? Yes. Brights? Probably not.

He would have been in for a nice surprise.

Are you recommending adding bleach to black pants and jeans?!?!?!?!

No. A LOT of bleach.

2C, serious comment here, don't you dare touch the bleach.

Thanks Ru, at least you care about me. Crash is trying to get me in the dog house. I think I will just stick to washing towels, underwear and socks. Can't mess that stuff up.

On the bright side I found $1.35 in change cleaning up the water around the washer/dryer.

Ah. Was just trying to have some fun...at your expense.

An added bonus. It's my wife's "tip".
