Current Events » My sister makes herself out as a victim because I put her laundry in the dryer
She's 29 years old and pouts like a child because I asked her to take care of her clothes. Acts like I transgressed by not letting her clothes sit wet in the washing machine for 10 hours while she did god knows what.

What else can I even say to underscore how stupid this situation is. Anyone that touches her clothes is an asshole I guess but she has no self awareness about her stopping anyone else from doing laundry all day by letting her clothes just sit in there wet.

It makes sense economically to live at my parents' house since I work remote but God is it insufferable at times.

And no there is no special thing she does that I might not have done in terms of the dryer settings or anything. She is just mad because once someone did that and her clothes didn't dry all the way. Missing the irony that otherwise her clothes wouldn't have been dried at all

Probably one of my biggest pet peeves. I can do laundry easily within half a day, when people have their shit sitting in the machine after its cycle for god knows how long, im moving your crap elsewhere and using it myself.

If she doesn't want you to dry her clothes, just stick them in a basket and let them sit in the laundry sink until she gets around to it.

It's not a war crime the first time.

I'm in an apartment with 12 units sharing 2 pairs of washer/dryer.

That shit gets a very shortgrace window before getting dumped on the tiny shelf near the machines

Could she be upset that you put her clothes in the dryer using a heat seating that could ruin them?

Where are all those fabled brothers who love their sister more than anything? Just a meme most likely.

Look at it this way. She has heard of brothers like that and suffers because she did not get one.

I currently live with my parents and I work late so I just do my laundry in the middle of the night when everyone is asleep. There was one time I did it in the day and my mom was annoyed because it held up her laundry. So night time it is for me
Hope rides alone
just leave the wet clothes in a pile on the floor next time
I could see you, but I couldn't hear you You were holding your hat in the breeze Turning away from me In this moment you were stolen...
Youre supposed to dump unfinished laundry on top of the dryer so they have to rewash everything.

Could you have not read the OP

Again no there is no setting or issue I might miss. I've seen her load her laundry before. The dryer does not have special settings. She doesn't separate her laundry by colors or fabrics.

The worst part is for whatever reason I'm such a people pleaser that I've spent the last 30 minutes thinking of how I could've gone about this that wouldn't involve making her upset, and hypothesizing why it might make her upset like maybe she sees holding up the washing machine as the tiny amount of control she can exert or something given her lack of a job, and I took that away from her. It's so ridiculous to think like this and is probably an effect of growing up here around this awful family but the alternative is consistently pissing her off and having to deal with that 24/7.

Dump her wet clothes in her bedroom next time if her inability to finish her laundry is holding yours or anyone else's up.
Politicians are the weeds of the galaxy.
im on your sister's side. just leave her clothes alone. im sure the washing machine goes hours or days without being used, even if she wanted the clothes in there for 10 hours did you really absolutely have to be fucking with it right that fucking second?

also sometimes ppl don't want everything dried or really want to make sure the clothes don't get too hot and shrink. some stuff you can't dry either.

like for real id be pissed if you randomly shoved all my clothes in the dryer and turned it on.

edit: i also think it's okay to take her clothes out and leave them wet, not dumped on the floor, but in a clean basket or bin or something would be okay. it's the putting it in the dryer that's the problem.

yes she's in the wrong, but some people are very sensitive about other people touching their clothes. Doesn't matter if you're family. People aren't going to be very comfortable with other people touching their underwear.

What kind of dryer in this day and age doesn't have various settings?
This one has a second nozzle besides the timer but it's broken and has been for years. Is this post supposed to insinuate that I made this story up

Was she not at the house for 10 hours? Couldn't you have asked her to remove them?

I did read the fucking post. That's why I asked. Don't get hostile with me.

I'd go with putting them in a basket, in the sink. When she complains, then just tell her "Then do your laundry properly, ya lazy bum!"

Then she can learn not to let it sit in the washing machine all day. She's almost 30. I didn't go rearrange her closet. She has a college degree.

You might be a little bit too defensive if that's what you got from me asking why dryers like that are still being manufactured


I have no idea why Doe is suddenly so mad. Usually they have reasonable takes.

okay i read the first post and im back on your side. so what if the clothes didn't dry all the way? that's literally perfect, as we already discussed. it's when the dry clothes sit in the hot dryer that they shrink and get all fucked up.

i would just calmly explain this, but ultimately ignore her if she makes a big deal about it

anyway you should move out

I am such a people pleaser than when my old roommates did this, I moved their clothes to the dryer. Then when they were dry I folded/hung (depending on each roommates preference) all of them up real nice and placed it neatly on their bed

I was so anxious theyd get mad at me for putting their clothes in the dryer, that Id just finish all their laundry for them so they wouldnt be mad at me >.>

Because I live in the middle of nowhere with a family I hate yet pathologically think about how I can annoy/interact with them less and in the rare times I come to CE to talk about I do it because I feel like it's finally absurd enough to vent about and not because I need someone to find a way to take their side and convince me that maybe I'm the asshole for not capitulating to their childish inabilities to take care of themselves or consider the other residents

Mom, Doe washed my panties on high for 45 minutes
You guys don't know this, but women clothing have to be handled a specific way or you destroy them sometimes. TC probably ruined some of her clothing because he got impatient.

If she's stopping you from doing your laundry, maybe ask her, "Hey, can you move your clothes to the dryer so I can do mine?" If she doesn't do it, then either put them in the dryer or move them to a clean hamper.

If no one else is needs the washer/dryer, why should you care? Let her clothes get musty from sitting all day.

I've lived in a house with 6 other adults and laundry is just going to be an issue sometimes. You can make a laundry schedule, or ask in a group chat if anyone else needs to do laundry before you (and others) start, or just agree to touch each others' clothes.

If the issue was you putting them in the dryer, then just say you'll put them in a hamper from now on. If that was what she wanted, then she's justified in being somewhat annoyed but she should also acknowledge it was partly her fault for leaving it in the washing machine all day. Say you'll put the wet clothes in a hamper or something and that's it.

If she just expects you to leave her clothes in the washing machine and put your own laundry on hold, then she is 100% wrong and unreasonable, and you should just get out of that house ASAP if you can afford it.

Or escalate things by putting everything on and wearing it.

Only a few posters have mentioned this but yeah not all clothing can be just thrown in the dryer. Some can permanently shrink. Heck even I have a shirt I have to remove as soon as most of the moisture is gone and set it out to dry the rest of the way

I was responding to what I saw. Your original post did not mention anything about settings. As someone who does have a lot of fishnet and mesh clothes that would get fucked up by even normal settings, I was merely hypothesizing why your sister might be upset.

If you can't handle that without snapping at people, then maybe you shouldn't air your dirty laundry on GameFAQs.

She ought to be glad you dried them.
You are better than me......when I see someone's clothes sitting in either the washer (like you said, for hours after they have already been washed) or dryer I just take the clothes out, either sit them right on top of the washing machine/dryer or a chair, put my stuff in the wash/dryer, and when I am done with my stuff I just take the person's clothes and put them right back where I originally found them lol.
