I did a little researching before writing this bitch, wanting to make sure my uncomfortableness with cleaning public dryer vents was for good reason. I thought the lint from the clothing would consume of flakes of skin, mites, human hair, and anything else that really would come off in ones clothing. Turns out, as far as I’ve seen… I was wrong. But, I will still continue on with my bitch, as I still feel passionately about it.
To the public dryer usage people out there… Please clean the dryer vents when you are done. I really prefer not having to touch the blown off fabrics from your clothing in order to use the machine.
Thanks! —Lint Free is the Way to Be

Oh Suck it up Howard Hughes. You touched worse when you touched the doorknob to the laundry room, not to mention fiddling with the coins you pumped into the slots.
It’s been a while since I read Swift but didn’t Lilliput and Brobdinag go to war over when to clean the lint trap – before putting your clothes in or after they’re done.
Cheese and rice if it’s THAT bad touching someone else’s lint, than just leave it on there and let the next schmuck clean off theirs and yours.
Thank GAWD I have my own W/D.
Oh brother. Guess what? When you don’t give a flying fajita about this stuff, you rarely get sick. The whinier you are, the sicker you’ll be.
wouldn’t the previous WASH cycle take care of all that skin fleck and crap???
really, you had to research to know that one something is WASHED… as in a WASHER, it generally is mostly free from grime/mites/semen…
well, maybe not all of that last one.
anyhoo…. people are lazy… and especially when no-one is watching.
I just can’t believe someone hasn’t come up with a self-removing lint tray.
kinda like the ol’ k-cups of yore that get dumped in a bin in the back of the coffee maker until it gets full and beeps it’s robotic little circuit board out.
OB, who is sneaking into your house to use your dryer? Or are you using one of those communal welfare dryers?
WHAT? There was a keurig that did that?
Fuck.
Betcha didn’t think about my cum-rags in the washer before you used it.
a dryer gets real hot, anything in that lint, is long dead. don’t be such a fucking pussy.
Ivan, you beat me to it 😉
If you read this artcle Howard, you’ll never leave your “safe room” again.

I Love it when dryer lint comes out big and colorful!! 😀
so…you clearly don’t touch genitals of any kind…
A bitch about dryer lint. Who’d a thunk it?
OP it’s the counter tops and knobs you gotta be worried about :/
get some OCD meds man. There’s more important things to worry about than dryer lint.
Like belly button lint.
