skybytch 273 #1 November 24, 2002 I'm all excited because I got a new dryer today. Okay, so it's not brand new but it's new to me. It was only $75 (plus $25 to the kids who brought it over and hooked it up for me). Has both the timer and the automatic mode. And it matches my washer. Yes, I know that it's really sad to be excited about getting a used appliance. Does this mean I'm growing up? Or just getting old?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I decided that I was starting to get old when I found myself excited about appliances.... It happens guess.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flailchick 0 #3 November 24, 2002 Sounds like you got a great bargain - since I love to shop, I'd be excited about getting such a good deal! It's a chick thing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #5 November 24, 2002 Quote It represents my jump money for the last two weeks You can always think of it like this. Since you got a good deal on it now you can jump more!!! If you had bought it new that might have eaten up a months worth of jump tix. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #6 November 24, 2002 Anything that makes life easier is definitely something to get excited about! That's funny that you mentioned that you are glad that it matches your washer. My ex thought I was crazy when it bothered me that he bought a dryer that didn't match my washer. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that's a good thing!She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that's a good thing! well i sort of understand if your buying them together, but if its a deal, what difference does it make? are washers and dryers show pieces? arent they ussually in closest someplace where company never sees them? to me they are tools, matching is cool if its easy but function and value would seem to be FAR more important..kind of like me worrying that my hammer doesnt match the screw driver..just seems silly to me..

skymama 37 #11 November 24, 2002 Quote arent they ussually in closest someplace where company never sees them? Nope, ours were in the laundry room, which you walked through everytime you came into the house from the garage. And, for some reason, most of our visitors ended up walking through the garage and knocked on that door.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zenister 0 #12 November 24, 2002 ok well that makes more sense since if they didnt match it would be a topic of conversation fairly regularly and that could get old.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sunshine 2 #14 November 24, 2002 As someone that has to go to a laundromat every week, i am so happy for you!!

ChileRelleno 0 #15 November 25, 2002 Naw there's nothing wrong with you. A good friend of my wife bought us a reconditioned washer/dryer combo shortly after we had our son, we both were very excited, happy and thankful. When I got married I was the one getting excited about all the cookingware and kitchen stuff we received as wedding presents, I love to cook. The kitchen is mine when I'm at home, Remember all the great chefs are men!

AggieDave 6 #19 November 25, 2002 Yes, but here in College Station, doing laundry freak'n rocks. We've got a place called Harvey Washbangers that is a laundry mat/sports bar & grill. They have all kinds of beer, sweet beer specials and really good food, 6-7 TVs going...it makes you want to do laundry. --"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

Especially now that you can do your laundry naked!I know exactly how you feel! I dig appliances, especially ones that work good. I got a new dryer at Costco a while back and was so fired up that it had this shelf thing that fits inside so you can put your shoes in there to dry out. Dry clothes are very cool! I got a little nervous about what kind of "appliance" you might be excited about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deuce 1 #23 November 25, 2002 LOL! Cops are in their cars watching the game on their mini-tv's. Dispatch broadcasts that they need an available unit. Nothing. Crickets chirping. "Any unit?" Nothing. "Any unit for a report of a nude female at Juki's Laundromat, described as a white female in her 20's, short brown hair, peirced navel, gothic tattoo on the small of her back, naked, sitting on the dryer smiling and humming to herself?" Nothing but squelch as every squad in town starts up and rolls to Juki's Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
