Darn dryers.

It's quite frustrating when you have a good set of clothes in your closet, not to mention they might be your favourite (or only set) of good clothes you own. Then one day, they journey from the laundry hamper, to the washer, and into the dryer, on "low heat" setting. At least you think the person who put it in left it on a "low heat" setting. Finally, you find it, iron or do whatever to it and put it on, only to find that your favourite shirt/pants have shrunk by a miniscule percent. Ah, but I should mention that perhaps it isn't as miniscule as one would think, because you can feel that miniscule percent as you see your shirt lifting a bit too much or your pants going high-water on you (you only had the pair for about a few months).

Unless you have the money to buy another bigger or better shirt, you'll have to deal with pulling down your clothing as it's hinting to you that you don't quite fit them nicely as you did a few months ago, thanks to the dryer.

Yes, it is the dryer. Point in case: Japanese are noted (and research proves) to be the healthiest lot of people in the world, with Japanese women having a greater expectancy to live longer than most. So yes, peanuts and dried anchovies won't do you harm (actually, I think they're rather good for you), and I only do the canned coffee on a less-than moderate basis.

Though the canned coffee I wouldn't stand for a long period anyway. :x

;p

it's even more frustrating when you can't truthfully blame the dryer...because then all of your clothes are shifting funny.
