It's a portable clothes dryer, lol. It looks like a regular one, but it's a bit smaller and it vents out the window. Here. Note the insane price. I got mine off Craigslist, with the portable washer, for $400. Yeah baby. Wendy.. cute. :P

What the fuck is a portable dryer?

Anne… I know, I know. But the muttering… for the love of god. And can I get drunk, too? Please.

Wendy… Oh you need to drink too. My mom first says, “I know you know how to be good with money… but you shouldn’t spend so much,” then she says, “how come you haven’t bought a new vacuum cleaner?” and “your dryer is broken and you need a new one.. why haven’t you done that?” OK, a) my dryer isn’t broken and it’s a portable. It costs a lot, and it just takes awhile to dry and b) I already have a vacuum cleaner that works just fine, damn it.

ARGH.

oh, see mine tell me i should rearrange stuff… and tell me what i should buy, and then they lecture me on money, and i’m like, “wait, i work so i can spend 2 bucks on a freaking disposable pepper mill that comes with the fucking pepper already, it’s not like i’m asking you for 2 goddamn dollars to pay for my cracked pepper habit.” oh and when i say ‘mine’ as in my parents, i really mean my stepdad. i would have killed him already if my mom didn’t seem to like the fat bastard…

But I tend to agree with Grampa here: I’ve found that letting my parents put the microwave wherever was a much better solution than bickering with them. And as long as the microwave returns to its real place, the one it feels best in, as the goodbye tears are not even dry, all is good with the world.
Yeah, all right, a bit drunk.

If you think it’s all fine and dandy, then I’ll send them to visit you.

See, it’s less the doing and more the comments that go along with the doing.

Just let them do whatever the fuck they want. It’ll only take you a day to sort it out after they leave and if you just let them have their fun and don’t stress out about it, it’ll save years off the back end of your life.
