when you put predator and pray in the same fish tank

Ugh fuck duvet covers they’ll eat themselves even if they’re closed and the only thing in there

Duvets are the worst, it's like the ultimate boss fight for my dryer

You can also use a laundry mesh bag, put either the duvet or the rest in the bag and it will not happen. Laundry bags are also useful to protect clothes with elastics from being stretched and damaged.

If you washing machine has a Bedding setting then try using that. It prevents this from happening, at least of front loading machines.

First thought: "why are they holding their baby like that?"

After scrolling down: "oh"

It’s official. You are the chosen one, and this is your legendary weapon.

you pulled out the washing machine's intestines

My washing machine ones created a giant extremelly heavy clump of sheets, started shaking like crazy and with the vibrations drove away from the wall which resulted in the dryer on top almost falling

I got some silicone rubber bands from Amazon a few years ago and I use them to tie the four corners of sheets and blankets together before washing and drying. Does a great job keeping them from entangling other items in the machine.

Or it made a perfect rotisserie chicken holder.

It reminds me of intestines

Wait, there are laundry machines that stop when something's wrong?

This just happened to me.

Wash separately

Ya I always have to ball up big things I pout into the washer so it doesnt suck up all the other smaller things I put in.

Something sad Ive also found is that when this phenomena occurs sometimes the big articles suck up all the detergent juices and water and prevent the smaller , trapped inside it clothing from getting sufficiently cleaned

My washer does this all the time. It can be infuriating.

I recently got a used washer that doesn't have the center column and instead of doing this, blankets now form a bubble or mushroom shape across the whole drum

Concrete the washer into the wall.
