An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

I was out running last night and I came back after the kid had fallen asleep, so I needed to wait until this morning. It only takes an hour, so I can hang the clothes to dry before going to the office.

You must be on performance enhancing drugs

Based on my very mediocre pace/heart rate on last night's run, I can say with confidence that is not the case.

[–] BangelaQuirkel 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But at least performance enabling drugs, no?

Amazing stuff.

What washer machine is that? Are the vents at the top part of it?

It looks cool, I like its aesthetic

[–] rwdf 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's a Blomberg. The vent is on a dryer that's on top of the washing machine.

Huh, nifty!

I've never heard of them, but I like the industrial design of that unit :)

Jeez, that's great. I forgot to set the timer on mine for it to start at 5h30 this morning. The schedule of the day is all messed up now.

? How? I have almost the same washing machine. The 0:57 is an estimate of how long the cycle will take.

[–] rwdf 2 points 1 month ago

I woke up at 6:30, made some coffee and read the news before I started the wash. I didn't use the delayed start function because my clothes were sweaty and needed to dry overnight and not lay wet in the machine for ten hours.

How?

It's a mystery.
