    I think they are more like cell mates. Stuck in the same small room. Can’t leave. Warden checks on them periodically and gives them terrible food to eat…

    I have 2 dryers stacked on top of each other next to my washer.

    My dryers are lovers. The washer gives them wet clothes and likes to watch them dry it’s load.

        Kabaka said it right. Dryers are slow compared to washers.

        I live in Taiwan and it’s stupid humid here. So by the time the 1st load finally dries, the 2nd load has been baking in the heat and in most cases, already mold/stinks.

        I wasn’t the one you asked, but: dryers tend to take much longer than washers — sometimes twice as long. I frequently find myself leaving wet clothes in the washer while I wait for the previous dryer load to finish, so that I can then put another load in the washer.

        In short: so you never have to wait for a dryer to finish and thus can sustain maximum laundry throughput.

          Oh, that makes sense. I just try to stagger my dryer and washer when doing multiple loads so that I can empty the dryer before the washer finishes, but I can see how having a second dryer would help me on a lazy day.

    One takes twice as long as the other to get their work done, so I think they’re just work “friends” because the washer secretly hates how the dryer keeps talking so long.

    I try to bring them together, but my washer keeps walking away from my dryer during the spin cycle.

      Technically “washer and dryer’s what?” as they seem to co-own something.

      Should be “washers and dryers”. I don’t mind a typo here and there, I’m guilty of it, but I hate this barely literate timeline.

    They have their own thing going on. I’m definitely a third wheel, it’s very awkward at laundry time. I can tell they just want me to go away and leave them alone.
