The internet is divided over whether your washing machine should be in your bathroom
3 June 2019, 16:36
It's the question that has baffled scholars since the beginning of time – where should your washing machine go?
The internet is the ultimate place of discovery. Gone are the days that we'd actually pick up a book to learn something new. This year alone, the internet has already taught us that not a lot of people wash their legs in the shower, in fact, they don't even wash their feet in there either. Oh, and did you know every woman has an identical freckle on their wrist? Weird…
Now the biggest debate on the net is all about washing machines. It all started way back in 2017 when British people discovered that Americans don't put their washing machines in the kitchen. Instead, our US counterparts have designated laundry rooms where they keep all their washing machines.
This is apparently because a lot of homes in the UK are much older and therefore were not designed with them installed. However, some newer houses have a "utility" room, the equivalent of the Americans' laundry room.
Well, the big debate is now back after another shocking washing machine discovery. Twitter user @biebersgrills revealed that German people actually keep their washing machines in their bathrooms and it kind of makes a lot of sense.
In Germany it‘s the MOST NORMAL thing that washing machines are placed in bathrooms and not in the kitchen where it definitely doesn‘t belong???? IM- pic.twitter.com/s5evTPwgap

The tweet went viral, opening up yet another online conversation about washing machines. Some Brits were seriously reconsidering that kitchen thing.

Nah but imagine cleaning your clothes in the same room you take a shit. Poo particles floating in the air and all that 😞

It makes logical sense to why it’s in the kitchen tbh, if the sink is there to clean dirty plates then why not put the washing machine there also, to clean dirty clothing.
