Big Bong Automatic Washer

[Unimatic1140]

I wonder if the glass tube fills up with water and then huge air bubbles surge up through the clothes like a big water bong???

Hey I want one of these '65 models lol...

*innocently asks*

What's a water bong?



Ha!

 

[hooverwheelaway]

Just kidding.
I know what a water bong is...

That would be cool to have installed in one's living room.

Best part - hands down - the clothes come out folded!

~F

As if he didn't know lol

What's a water bong?

*rolls eyes*

It's a tube with water in it and air flows up through the water, you might say it creates "agitation".

Laundry in a bong?

I'm sure it'd be illegal in at least 10 states. California, of course, would be the first to legalize it (for medicinal purposes only).

It would, of course, be an "all-in-one" (washer/dryer combo), and when the police siren, ...er, I mean the buzzer would sound, the clothes would come out looking a little stoned; I mean stone-washed.

Who says smoking is unattracitve?

IIRC the proper word for a bong is a nargyle. Just so ya know! LOL.

So very Jetsons!

Hands folded...
Samantha, haven't you made such a washer/dryer/folder yet?

I wanna be invited to THAT hookah party!

 

[hydralique]

Hmmm . . .

If filled with gin and vermouth could it also double as a giant-size martini pitcher? In particular, if it works like a classic Frigidaire then the martinis would be shaken, not stirred . . .

If hookas are around you can be sure Endora is smoking one

Wasn't there an Bewitched episode where Agnes Moorehead was smoking one

 

[whirlcool]

Laundress, is that you in the drawing?

I think Endora was even "floating" while smoking from the hookah too.

Looks like an early to mid 50's forecast for the future. The woman has that "1955" look about her. Maybe by 2065 we'll have machines that wash, dry and fold the laundry for us. Then the "quaint" old machines that came out this year will in demand for the next generation of restorers!

Never too late to learn something...

I didn't know either what a water bong was and searched for it on the internet. Now I know that those things I see frequently in window displays of smart shops here in Amsterdam are called bongs!

 

[frigilux]

I'm most impressed the bong-laundry can wash white dress shirts and dark argyle socks or a red tablecloth in the same load!

The older-style, clear plastic bleach dispenser from a Maytag washer with some small pipe fittings makes a very interesting bong - and it has that beautiful Maytag script logo on the lid.

It doesn't help with getting the wash done, folded and put away, but if we held it long enough, we didn't care. It's long gone now, perhaps I should have saved it?

Does anyone remember the washer on Lost in Space? She would put the clothes in and then open the door and the clothes were all folded and in plastic wrap. I thought that was so cool when I was a kid.

 

[rp2813]

Hmmmm. . . considering the premise and story lines for Lost in Space, maybe the creative team behind that show got a hold of Mandy's bleach dispenser?

 

[sdlee]

a wild fantasy

wow picture it, ge filter flow full of"recreational detergent" air comming up the agitator, not only air bubbles in the tub but bubbles and agitation to boot, the hoses available to who ever is around.......Hmmmm. This would be the biggest bong party ever....glad i am too innocent to think of it

I'm STILL waiting for:

. . . the monorail that whisks me from my climate-controlled master-planned neighborhood to my 20-hour-a-week job in the domed air-conditioned business district.
