    Putting them away. I don't feel like doing it after it takes so long, but then if I don't they get all wrinkled.

    I also hate when my pants get wrinkled b/c I don't have an iron.

      Agree, I hate putting my clothes away. Washing them is easy, but I'm much too lazy to find hangers and sort them lol

    I go to a laundromat. There are some nasty, shady, creepy people there. One guy just sits there with his belly out and tongue out. He also smells bad and is very creepy, just always watching. Sometimes he doesn't even do laundry! Yet he has a beautiful new car.

    I hate the people most. :P

    I don't iron them.

    I hate having to handle peoples smelly clothes.

    I really hate when I go to put what's in the washer in the dryer and the wet clothes smell fermented. Then, I have to wash those all over again, which makes me have to wait on washing the other clothes.

    Then, there's putting them away. I usually procrastinate on that and leave them on a table in my room. Then, depending on my mindset, I will I fold them and put them away.

        I've always thought Santa stole them to fill with coal for the naughty children.

    I hate just doing the laundry. One reason is because I am not only a big fat man but I also am Blind. This makes washing clothes kind of different. I will sometimes separate them and I get some whites into the dark and viz a versa. Sadly now I just by all white bath towels and wash rags and kitchen towels as well all white. most of my clothes are all dark and this makes life much easier.

    Getting my fat lazy ass up to do it even though I have a full size washer and dryer. It's ashame. One would think I had nothing but a washboard and lye soap:)

    Putting them away, the stupid rate of inflation that the launderette in my halls of residence has (I swear that a wash was £2 one semester and £2.50 the next!), the thick cleaners.

    I've had money, an Ikea bag and a really nice set of undies go missing >:G

        Either that or they were put in a Lost Property Office and I didn't ask... It's too late for me to try finding all of them again and I've bought a new set of the undies I liked
