People Sharing Laundry Struggles On Twitter Will Make You Feel Better About Your Own

For some people, laundry is a tiresome chore where everything can and will go wrong.

That oversize sweater made of 100 percent cotton? Of course you put it in the dryer and shrunk it. That new red dress that somehow snuck in with your whites? Of course it dyed everything pink.

If you identify with any or all of these laundry fails, you’re not alone. People on Twitter are here to share your laundry pain:
