You decide to stuff your bag with plenty of socks and fresh undies. If there's a problem that can't be solved with Twinkies, undies, and sock…ies, you haven't found it yet. There's just one problem: you're all out of clean underwear, and your parents' washing machine hasn't worked since you used it to combine seventeen different kinds of laundry soaps in an attempt to make a fortune in the detergent industry. Fortunately, you have plenty of quarters, and aren't afraid to show your underwear to strangers, so it's off to the Laundromat.
Ah, the Laundromat. The
place where the common man comes to wash his filthy clothes and sit
quietly, avoiding eye contact with everyone else in the room. You head
to the nearest open machine and stuff your socks and unmentionables
inside. Then, the time comes for you to select a detergent. You decide
on one, insert your coins, and out comes the detergent in bar form. As
you reach in to grab it, however, you feel a second bar in the bin just
behind it. And so, the wheels in your head start a'turning, and soon
after, you toss the new, mixed bar of detergent into the machine. After
a few minutes, you decide to check on the progress of your new hybrid
detergent. |
