Today, my roommate did his laundry. Unfortunately, he didn't check his pockets before he washed them. There's now sticky, melted gum all over the washer and I'm left to clean it up. FML

OP here, and i realized i made a huge mistake in my FML. This actually took place in the dryer not the washer. I'm not sure why i made that silly mistake. However for anyone who this may ever happen to i managed to get it off rather easily by soaking a fresh dryer sheet in cold water and scrubbing away at the gum.... and yes, it really was gum.

You should just leave it for him to deal with. FYL.

Wait for his ass to come back and force him to clean up the mess.

Walls off? Did you run up the wall and jump off to look cool? Because I would do that too.

you're walking into a fire with that comment...

I think I've done that before. Shit's hard to get off! Sucks for you OP. Sucks for you.

Run a couple empty loads with hot water? Might help... Then get a new roommate.

Cold water will actually help more. Hot water will only soften it and spread it. Cold water will hopefully harden it so you can break or Peel it off easier.

Wow, 9, bad grammar and a sexist comment all in one! You're really trying to piss someone off aren't you?

They say peanut butter is good for getting gum out of hair...Perhaps washer/dryers as well?

Are you 100% sure the sticky substance was, in fact, chewing gum?

27- I don't know... sounds like ectoplasm to me. Or, it could be... (insert something sticky here).

Um...sweetheart, that sticky mess WAS all over his pants...and it isn't gum.
