What he does is he lathers his lower back and lets the soap duds go in between the crack and then lets water rinses it off... I was LOLing all night at that. Another friend uses a rag to wash his butt and he rarely cleans the rag.

I agree on black or grey underwear. I never wear white undies.
*LOL* And with that joke, now have to attempt to eat lunch and block out those undies.

I would use the washers only, take my clothes back to my apartment....and dry them there.
I use that. I only dry bedding, pillows and towels. I go to the laundromat weekly. I wish I had a washer in my apartment.

SIKE!!!

The dryers are fairly large, and was only about 40% full, and I had to do two rounds because the 1st round my clothes were still wet. I already emailed the management company. All I want is my extra $3 back and that specific dryer looked at.

The chary part of my brain thinks the affordable new housing buildings, and all new buildings in general, do this to maximize proifts and it's disgusting. Thee dollars for a load of laundy is... a complete rip off, especially when you have to do it twice. It's exactly the issue I spoke of in my original post. but maybe part of the blame is how lame the new eco-friendly machines are? I mean hells look at anything labeled eco-friendly and you are paying an arm and a leg for it, how is it worth it for working class people who don't have the luxury to be on a crusade to save the planet!?!

Last time I did laundry downstairs in my building, the only other person in there told me there were too many soap suds in my washing machines (I was using three). She claimed that during the last rinse cycle -- I guess about 5 minutes prior to the end of the whole thing -- that there should be no suds, like in her machine. She said she was concerned for me because if there's too much soap in my clothes, the chemicals will get onto my skin.

She's probably right. But I use those Tide pods and I was only using one pod per machine. Maybe everyone above who sends their laundry out because "life is too short" has the right idea. I don't have the patience to get every laundry detail correct.

She was a really well-meaning Chinese lady, a school teacher. So...no, I was nice and polite and listened to her. I kept an open mind. It's possible she is right.

Pay to get the wash done. I get 2 bags done for $60, wash, dry, fold, and dress shirts on hangers.

How big are those bags for 60 bux? the only time I ever got my laundry did was when I was renting a room in a 5 bedroom room in harlem and every time I went downstairs to the laundry room I was told there's no room. People were running a laundry service in the building :/ great to make money for them im sure, but no one was "allowed" to use our communal laundry room except the old school warsh ladies. It was expensive and i only did socks and underwear. I didn't wash a single shirt, pants, etc for 6 months :/ I must have smelled like ass on the 1 train.
