Heap of yuck
January 25, 2015 | 11:16 | Written by: snake911I’ve been living in this apartment for a little over a year now and for the most part it’s a good place, but the appliances that came with included with the unit are towards, what I believe, the end of their estimated life spans. The fridge runs longer than what it should, the dishwasher’s Jet-Dry sprayer isn’t doing the job anymore, and the washer-dryer combo has started making more noise when the wash cycle is going.
I decided to check the washer to see if there was a quick solution to making it quieter, but to no avail. It is, however much cleaner now after I cleared out a bunch of crud from underneath it. It’s a such a narrow gap, but so much crap seemed to have gotten wedged from under it over the years, many of which came from previous tenants. For example, there were a number of colored markers and a a lid for a very small cup. This leads me to believe a kid was living here at some point. There were also a lot of lint balls, dryer sheets, and OxiClean wrappers to stun me, trying to figure out how so much garbage was able to accumulate in such a tight space. There was also some funky looking fabrics that make me think someone was wearing a shag carpet for a jacket.
I’m sure a landfill is located underneath the oven also, but that’s a task for another day.
