Unhampered
Back in the day, when I started doing my own laundry, I would wash anything that I wore once. It was college. And yes, I had to learn the lesson of not mixing my whites with colors after turning my underwear pink. I still recall one of the dudes on my floor using a broomstick/pole (minus the broom itself) to stuff all his laundry into one washing machine to save on spending quarters. From what recall, he may have even been standing atop the machine. As I got older, I came to understand that this wear once/wash once was an enormous waste of time, water, money, energy, etc. I am not sure when I wised up. I think it was when I started to notice that my dress pants were fading and falling apart. Dirt is destructive to the fibers of fabric. It acts as sandpaper grinding down the threads to threadbare. So, there is a spectrum in laundering clothes but my guess is that most of us wash our clothes too often and too much. All that lint? That used to be your clothes. Rule of Thumb
