* Some articles of clothing shrink if not washed properly (either that or baths are fattening). * Some articles of clothing fade (and clothing dye doesn't wash off easily). * Any white "garments" worn underneath jeans during this process will turn blue (along with all body parts under the "garments"). * Powered and liquid laundry soap causes body hair to turn pale green (my "nether regions" haven't been this "colorful" since the tie-dye incident of '68!) * "Toweling off" with dryer sheets may give you a "fresh smell", but it hurts like heck!
