I do laundry about once every ten days, if that. I consider myself an average person in this regard. I mean, I wear a different change of clothes every day, and sometimes two if I do something athletic. I wash my towels and pillowcases with each load, and a little less often I wash my bedsheets. I separate my whites and colors, so when I do laundry I do two loads. If this is not "average," I'd kind of like to know. I have a roommate, who I think does laundry pretty much on a similar schedule to myself. So we're talking about running the laundry machines once every 5 days or so. Maybe twice a week at most.

In light of this, my neighbors upstairs, whom I've already mentioned, must be either the cleanest people on earth or are harboring about 5 or 6 illegal aliens up there. They do two loads of laundry 5 or 6 times a week. Of course, I wouldn't give half a damn about how often anybody does their laundry if they stayed out of my way. But somehow, these people just know every button to push. They run their washing machine at about 8 in the morning. White noise can't drown out the frequencies of a washing machine, unfortunately.

I mean, what the hell is going on up there? Do they soil their clothes like 5 times a day or something? It's incredible.

Anyhow, I'd like to know: how often do you do laundry? An answer in the form of x loads in y days is sufficient.
