Staying Fresh After Going Hard in the Paint
It’s hard to go in the paint without getting your gear dirty. There’s probably been situations at the 2024 Olympic Games where participants and athletes wished they had a portable washing machine to get their gear looking fresh after chasing that gold.
Before Portable Washing Machines
Washing machines have come through for decades when our gear gets dirty, which is all the time. If you’re lucky enough to live in a private detached house with your own washing and drying machine then you’re living like a boss. However, most people that are young that live on their own probably live with roommates or with neighbours on each side of them in apartments.
Laundromats
Laundromats is where everybody pulls up to socially clean up their clothes. It’s a great excuse for getting out of the house. If you’re getting ganked by shoveling coins into their laundry machines then you can pick up one of the portable washing machines and wash your clothes at light speed wherever there’s electricity and a power outlet.
Washing Clothes in 2024 Be Like
More young to middle-aged people are chilling in the cribs, which are mostly condos, apartments, or rooms shared with other roommates. The laundry rooms and nearby laundromats turns into a Royal Rumble event when trying to sneak some time in around the roommates and neighbours to wash your clothes. There’s day where you don’t have time for that.
Portable Washing Machines
Portable washing machines subbed into the game to let you go undefeated when it comes to keeping your gear looking tidy and fresh. Once you get one of these bad boys you can ditch quite a lot of stuff, like
having to wait for other people to finish their laundry cycles
waiting for other people’s loads to finish
the machines just asking for more when your pockets can’t take no more
the machines turning into the Hulk by ripping your clothes up
needing a laundry bin to throw your clothes into
Staying Fresh on the Go
This bad boy is so compact that you can smuggle it just about everywhere if you’re on the run. It’s that pocket washing machine that you could throw in a backpack or your gym bag without anyone knowing. Once you’re ready and have access to some electricity you can plug in it, give it about four cups of water, throw in a drop of dish soap and some baking soda, then get your gear looking fresh and clean.
A Drying Rack to Go With Your Portable Washing Machine
Ever chuck your clothes into the dryer and they come out all soggy and wet? And then have to run another cycle to properly dry it? Yeah, it’s not fun. Clotheslines was the bread-and-butter strat for getting those clothes dry way back in the day. Most times dryers are pretty good at drying stuff. Or you can go vintage by letting your clothes dry on a drying rack. Even if it takes a little longer to dry it gives you the W by
- not worrying about having to run another cycle to dry your clothes
- not having to pin each piece of clothing with clothes pins
- making a game out of balancing how many clothes you can dry with how much space each piece of clothing needs to dry
The State of the Economy
