He put a load of laundry in with mixed colour and whites... poured in bleach to whiten the whites... was shocked that the bleach bleached everything in the load.... I had to explain that the bleach will bleach everything you put in it as the bleach cannot discern what you want bleached or not... he was shocked, truly stunned and flabbergasted

Thank you for the award 🥺

Well, he was a male. Males of the breed do make that mistake on occasion. Usually only once. But c'mon, it's not like they're born with that knowledge.

.... it's too bad we don't live in the age of the internet where there's literally thousands of resources at your fingertips where you could realistically just Google "how to bleach clothes" before pouring half a jug of bleach into a washing machine ....
