It would be fun to what people constantly slide off and have to adjust every other minute. I want those chairs in y dining room.

But some people swear by them...but not enough to get me to try one out. A laundromat might be a good place to test one out. Or maybe a bar.

But now that I know there is some I will pobably ignore my homework for some time to try it out. Michael- I have a problem with getting software and spending waaay too much time with it.

(I have no idea when I'll get around to posting it.) Basically...I long-windedly stated that I don't mind doing laundry because I like having clean clothes, but I hate folding the clothes after they get out of the dryer. But isn't that normal and common? Hmm....maybe I shouldn't make a post out of it. Eh...making it a draft can't hurt. A draft it is. I actually really like laundromats too and I kind of miss having to go to them. Yeah...I agree...where else can you look at total strangers' clothes and underwear with a straight face? Where? (Or am I just immature?) I love the fact that people are trapped within this somewhat personal and....intimate setting and yet we all act completely civilized and normal...which is to be expected I guess. Obviously. Okay...whatever... And do you use some kind of blogging software? If so, which one do you use? I've always wanted to try one of those... And wow...Bar/Laundromats?! I'm from San Antonio. My brother went to UT-Austin. I've visited Austin many times. I have never heard of these wonderful, unimaginable places. This has got to be an urban legend. Oh look! I think I might've written at least 300 words anyway! Long comments mean I'm getting comfortable in a blogging friendship. Congratulations!

I actually really like laundromats too and I kind of miss having to go to them. Yeah…I agree…where else can you look at total strangers’ clothes and underwear with a straight face? Where? (Or am I just immature?) I love the fact that people are trapped within this somewhat personal and….intimate setting and yet we all act completely civilized and normal…which is to be expected I guess. Obviously. Okay…whatever…

I clicked on comments to say the same thing. When I was at UT in Austin (86-90) I would do my laundry at the "Suds and Foam" which was a combo laundromat and bar. One time my laundry took so long that I had to call my roommate to come drive me home. I actually did meet someone at the Suds once--but "she" was actually a "he" which I realized when "she" pulled a jock strap out of the dryer. "She" was amazingly attractive but alas--not my type. ;) OMG–LK totally stole my thunder. I clicked on comments to say the same thing.

SO if anyone knows of one of these bar slash laundry places in the Twin Cities, speak up. I need to experience this at least once. MMMkay.

They were full on bars with washers and dryers and fold service. Made it tough trying to hide those stained poo poo undies from that hot chick you're trying to hit own between the rinse and spin cycles.. Pre-spot my brothers... Pre-spot.

I'd love to try out that Twilight Zone pinball I can see in the background! My favorite thing about laundromats is, as you’ve shown, the old arcade games they always seem to have.

Ever been to the "Sit 'N Spin" in Seattle? Laundry is an EXPERIENCE there. Vacuuming for me is what laundry is for you. Love to vacuume...LOVE it! Talk about instant gratification...clean carpet=BLISS. I love laundromats! Ever been to the “Sit ‘N Spin” in Seattle? Laundry is an EXPERIENCE there.
