laundry mats & public transportation

i absolutely LOVE the smell of laundry mats. idk why, it's just so....clean.
i don't think a lot of people ever really get the oppurtunity to do their laundry in one either. it's fun, relaxing, you can chill, watch tv, talk to other laundry-doers. idk really.
i guess growing up in apartments and condos and duplex's there's not really much room for a washer and dryer, so you go to your little complex's laundry mat or just go to the closest one once or twice a week and throw your laundry in.

buses, subways, taxis, all other places to meet random people. mostly when you ride everyone minds their business, and you don't really talk. but if you happen to listen to another's conversation or eavesdrop or whatever, you actually meet really interesting people.

it's not like people take the bus because they want to. sure if someone had a car it would be that much easier. it's not like people want to do their laundry in a laundry mat and pay $2.00 to use the washer, when if they had the room and money they would have their own washer and dryer. shashkdhaskdhas. idk where i'm going with this.
even if you're rich and live in a big house and wash your laundry at home all your life, one day go to a laundry mat. buy the little box of detergent and meet some people.
