Today, my roommate did his laundry. Unfortunately, he didn't check his pockets before he washed them. There's now sticky, melted gum all over the washer and I'm left to clean it up. FML
StickySituations tells us more.
OP here, and i realized i made a huge mistake in my FML. This actually took place in the dryer not the washer. I'm not sure why i made that silly mistake. However for anyone who this may ever happen to i managed to get it off rather easily by soaking a fresh dryer sheet in cold water and scrubbing away at the gum.... and yes, it really was gum.

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You should just leave it for him to deal with. FYL.

Wait for his ass to come back and force him to clean up the mess.

I'm curious, why exactly couldn't you get him to clean up his own mess?

Thanks for the correction because I was just about to call you on it. Close enough, however.

Well at least your clothes are gum-free. He will be washing those clothes over and over for days to get that gum out. Hope it's not your turn to pay the water bill.

Why are you cleaning it? Tell him to do it or you'll beat the **** out of him while he sleeps.

Use his Clothes to clean it up.

Why should you clean it up? Wait for him to come home and have him do it. Don't let this guy walk all over you. Set boundaries.

If it's in the washer should it be wet then?
