when more is more
as a minimalist (see previous post) and a fervent defender of “less is more,” i find it extremely refreshing when i run into examples of the opposite.
this one was quite surprising, and i can't stop thinking about it, so here you go.
when you wash really bulky towels (yes, those brooklinen ones) in top-loading washing machines, your first instinct might be to wash a little as possible (…like one) to play it safe.
that was my instinct, at least, and it couldn't have been more wrong.
washing only one towel throws off the balance, causing the machine to dance around like a maniac (which is extra terrifying if you have one with the dryer stacked on top), and make such loud noise that you start to wonder if it's cursing you out a bit.
the solution here is adding more towels. then there's no noise, no shaking, no stress.
that's all. got any other examples? let me know.
