Laundry can feel like a never-ending cycle of chaos for parents. Despite our modern advancements, it remains socially unacceptable to send your kids off to school in the buff, which means you’ll find yourself buried in laundry for the foreseeable future.
Before becoming a parent, you lovingly folded tiny outfits, placing them in a pristine dresser that had yet to be ravaged by the mischievous hands of toddlers. Little did you know that caring for those adorable clothes would consume your life for the next 18 years. But don’t just take my word for it; let the witty parents of Twitter enlighten you on the relentless torture that is laundry duty.
- Oops! It’s funny how you end up spending your weekends in that old, worn-out t-shirt from your spouse’s company softball game from ages ago, paired with shorts featuring a hole in an inconvenient spot.
- Same here! The sound of the washing machine’s agitator is the anthem of my existence, and it never seems to stop.
- Lights match Practice makes perfect—and fantasizing about burning laundry can be a surprisingly effective coping strategy!
- Death, taxes, and laundry: these are the constants in life. Parenting and laundry go together like peanut butter and jelly or your partner’s knack for misusing the heavy cycle.
- Who needs sorting? Wouldn’t it be cool to have an alpaca instead?
- Don’t even think about moving! My partner and I have had epic standoffs over who will fold and put away the laundry. It’s a battle I’m prepared to fight—on a mountain of laundry.
- At least you can say you made an effort.
- BRB, praying for the rapture. Laundry is definitely the first thing I’d give up on!
- Thanks, little buddy! When your kids “help” with laundry, pour yourself a glass of wine and take a deep breath. Just go with it.
- Remember, each new family member = more laundry piles to tackle every single day until they fly the coop.
- Yeah, no thanks! Slow down there, clothing labels. I’m not even sure I still own an iron—might have tossed it during a feng shui spree back in 2003.
- Does that really work? My child seems to be on the right wavelength; perhaps if we despise laundry enough, it will spontaneously combust.
- If only you knew! Your teenage self would be appalled at how thrilled you are with a few hours of peace to tackle laundry. Crank up some ’90s hits as you fold—who says you can’t have the best of both worlds?
