<p>I just felt the need to share this, it’s so weird.</p>
<p>So I come down to get my laundry from the dryer, like ten minutes after it stopped, and all my clothes, boxer-briefs and all, are all neatly folded on a table. I mean, I’ve had people whip out my stuff before because they had to use the dryer, but folding it all?? Even my underwear lol?!</p>
<p>I felt silmutaneously grateful, violated, and a little turned on. Maybe because I also saw an attractive girl in the laundry room, and this had to be a girl’s handy-work (hopefully :/).</p>
<p>I don’t know whether to say that’s sweet or creepy, but I’m leaning more towards the former. At least it was kind of them.
What a strangely adorable story…</p>
<p>I’ve folded peoples stuff before but it was just a whole bunch of towels that turned out to belong to a friend. Touching someones underwear is just disgusting.</p>
<p>I don’t mind folding someone’s shirts or something but there is no way in Hell I’m touching their underwear. A washing machine can only clean so much.
That said, I try to avoid using machines with clothes in it; even if it’s finished washing.</p>
<p>I don’t think whoever did it had intentions of being creepy, just thoughtful.</p>
<p>I had no idea that was considered “weird.” I’ve folded people’s laundry a couple of times - if you just dump it on the table, it’ll get wrinkly (but then again, if they just left it in the dryer, it would probably be wrinkled by the time they finally came back for it). If I do it, it’ll usually be a load of something like sheets, though…</p>
<p>One time, a guy had left one pair of pants in the dryer and I folded them for him - I came back to get my stuff when it was done and he’d taped a note to the dryer thanking me for folding his pants :)</p>
<p>At my college that wouldn’t be unusual at all. We consider it common courtesy to fold other people’s clothes when we take them out of a dryer. Heck, that’s something we tell ALL freshmen during orientation.</p>
<p>On the other hand, it is also common courtesy to pick the laundry up as soon as it is done…</p>
<p>Dude, a bunch of my friends (Russian students) got in trouble with the German student’s leader at Summer Gov. School because they took the student’s laundry out and folded them because the students had left ALL their clothing in the dryers and washing machines without any consideration for the other people that had to use them.</p>
<p>We only had like two hours to get our laundry done. I got an empty washer and dryer, so I was good, but my friends got full ones, so they took the other kids’ laundry and folded them. When the German students came back, they got mad that their laundry had “been disturbed” and told their teacher, who promptly yelled at us and told us we weren’t supposed to be in the laundry room. </p>
<p>When we showed her the schedule and it read, “yes, we were indeed supposed to be there”, she still insisted we had done something horrible by folding their laundry…</p>
<p>Yeah, we never used that laundry room again. The saved time was not worth it.</p>
<p>my roommates once folded my clothes. i felt grateful but also violated for having them go through my personals and knowing my panties and bra size.</p>
<p>I’d be embarrassed if someone folded my laundry and found random stains. The mind tends to wander; creating blood stains out of ketchup stains, yellow snot stains out of lemonade, etc.</p>
