This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I picked out this... thing. The duvet cover had eaten everything in the machine and turned itself into a postmodern textile art piece.

That's exactly why I always tie a knot in the middle of large things like this lol

I never had duvet covers do this. Fitted sheets however 💀. Now, I put them into a big laundry bag I've bought at a large coffee roastery.

You know. I didn’t think about doing that for the dryer. The fitted sheets always eat the rest and then I have a jelly-roll style sheet conglomeration.

Oh nice, it doesn't pull the knot too tight?

You have you keep it somewhat loose, just make it so it can't easily catch other things

I've never had that happen personally.
