Washing machines that just look like washing machines

"Washing machines that just look like washing machines "

Oh, wait, no where to put the clothes in.

Larry,Moe and Curly Joe's car, AKA Lefties bubble with doughnut tires. The green group.

I can still remember the smell of fresh sheets hung out on a clothes line to dry.

Until I get rid of this thing I might have to use the bathroom sink or the ce-ment pond.

Pray tell, what manufacturer/brand name!

[dryheat]

Whirlpool/Maytag. They are the same co. now. I just came back from my brothers. I used their washer and everything is nice and clean. I'm hoping that you can still buy a normal washer(with agitator) that will do the job. Just don't get anything "high efficient".
I called them yesterday and Monday probably isn't the best day. "We are experiencing heaver than normal calls, please stay on the line". I am going to have to dedicate a day to arguing with them.

that made me LOL



wife and I got marred in 1986 (35 yrs and 5 days ago),
when I met her grandmother, she (grandmother) was still using one of those old style washers,

looked like a barrel attached to a frame, with the rollers to roll out the water,
damn thing had what looked like an old truck gear shift on the side to make it work,

she passed in the late 90's,, and was still using it ,,,,,
they sold it after she passed, for as much as a new washer cost

That's where the saying comes from "Getting your tit caught in the wringer"

God dang, that's an oldy. Since we're talking old time(relatively): don't get yer pecker in a twist. Or, don't get yer panties in a wad. I'm not crazy about every goofy thing that was popular in the '70's. DT's pre-dates the sixties. Getting your tit caught in the wringer means, you screwed up. You leaned a little too forward. Now yer in trouble. It hurts. Yup, you don't want to get your tit caught in the wringer. Don't get your panties in a wad.
