Well, be it as it may, that could be in order to decrease the posted yearly energy cost for the EPA yellow sticker.
That also may be more in spirit than in practice. We have a laundry in the basement. I can hear it every time someone uses the washer, and whenever it's in the spin cycle, it bangs louder and more often than two horny teenagers who have discovered her parents are leaving her alone in the house over a three-day-weekend.
Because our basement is not wheelchair accessible I take my laundry to the laundromat down the street. Wasn't that an Elton John song, "Me and you, rendezvous, at the laundromat at the end of the street"? [1]

Not exactly, the scene in
Uncle Buck has him telling the washing machine that he's going to get his load into it no matter what it thinks, and the next-door neighbor who happens to come by, hears him telling off the washer, then thinks he's telling a woman what he's going to do to her. It did not involve anyone riding a washing machine while it was operating, although he might have been fighting the machine.
