These washers are brand spanking new, Energy Star and all. I am happy to support ultra-efficiency - pay a little more, no big fucking deal. It's good to use less water and less electricity. (By the way, I always use cold water.) The landlord should save money in the long run, right? So why did he not pass on the savings, but instead introduce this tiered pricing system based on Soil Level?
It is not apparent to me that when there's only one price that people would automatically choose the heavy cycle. I have always been a conscientious launderer, being the exemplary individual that I am. Therefore these new machines are pissing me off big time, especially when there is no guidance on what Light, Medium, and Heavy soil-ness mean, except for what might be deduced from here. Light day, medium day, heavy day for kettlebell workouts? Light flow, medium flow, heavy flow? Cat hair? Dog fleas? What???
It's like 2 AM and I need some damn quarters.
By the way, some of you know that I have started this other blog, and I will keep using both, just so we can be schizophrenic about it. Please leave comments and generously Share / Tweet / Like.

I have for you a story about a Marine who soiled his trousers in a restaurant and had to have his Jarhead pal go next door to old navy and buy him fresh skivvy drawers and, dammit, i just told you the whole story.
More to come,

It begs the question whether the story-teller was the protagonist or the pal ... =]
