I am legitimately overjoyed that I already do something (hang my clothes to let them dry) the the work wear guy recommends. I clearly need to touch more grass.
Americans are more likely to use full-sized vented dryers, which are easier to own in the US because people live in big, giant homes in car-dependent cities. Europeans are more likely to live in walkable neighborhoods, where they have to contend with space constraints and energy regulations. For these reasons, Europeans are more likely to use smaller, heat pump dryers that recycle warm air.
Vented dryers are "better" at drying clothes, but they can also be harsher. The hot air can dry out fibers, fade colors, and shrink garments. The lint you find in your dryer is the result of the material that has been taken out of your clothing. This reduces the lifespan of your clothes, but most Americans don't mind because clothing is often treated as cheap and semi-disposable.
Europeans are also more likely to rely on small front-loading washing machines, which are gentler on clothes. In the US, many people use top loaders, which are faster, easier to use, and less likely to have mold. But the central agitator can be harsher on clothes.
If you're able to — and I recognize not everyone can — it's always better to hang-dry your clothes, as this will extend their lifespan.
I’m sorry to say this to my fellow Brewers fans but we have to be honest. It doesn’t matter how much CC Sabathia goes to bat for us in the media or talks about how great MKE fans are. Some guys, Skubal being one, will never want to be here.
Tarik Skubal: “Every team could trade for me. I don’t sympathize with people that blame the Dodgers for anything they’ve done. It’s a winning org…I really don’t sympathize with people that are complaining because the Dodgers do all the right things.”
@ENiedfeldt And that is why we love CC. I can’t imagine a rental doing what he did now.
I think Skubal would certainly have tried, and probably performed, but I think he also would have had his eye on his next contract.
No way he would take a ball on 2 days rest.
@BrewersBabes I would argue the lock out, and potentially salary cap, are why you shouldn’t do much. If you believe in your farm system and the players in it, there is zero reason to start sending out what will be cheap talent to the rest of the league for rentals.
@BrewersRaptor I don’t think they should be doing much of anything. If a lockout and possible salary cap are viewed as likely, spreading out your cheap prospect talent around the rest of the league for some rentals seems like a bad move.
If you think Skubal to the Dodgers is a good thing you probably go to the casino and hope the house draws a five when hitting on 16.
Go Brewers. #Thisismycrew
@yelichfans I am going to go off the board here and say Pete Crow Armstrong only because I think we are going to end up with him at some point in his career.
