water is pouring into it, but not staying in it

like water is going in the way it normally fills when you start a load of laundry

but the thing doesn't fill with water, it is just draining out

what gives? HELPPPPPPPPPP

i have a soaking wet comforter with detergent all over it. this sucks.

^^much more useful reply.

12/9/2010 10:40:47 PM

NEVERMIND AGAIN

right when i posted that i went to check and it had drained again

so i got really mad and yelled at it and then i just twisted the knob put it on spin so i could at least get the water out of my comforter and then i decided to try ONE MORE time and it filled

i guess the basket maybe got off center or something? but i tried to recenter it and it was like really hard to move and didn't look off center. whatever. it filled thank JESUS

because i have a pee comforter to wash and i have like 4 loads of laundry to do tomorrow before i go out of town. whew. i'm kinda wet and got itchy detergent all over my arms but whatevs. crisis (hopefully, please god) averted.

i coulda sworn this said "wishing machine"

then there was like an actual story, and i was like "wtf.. what's a wishing machine?"

12/10/2010 1:06:51 PM

peeing on my bed is a SOLID grounds for a beating

I hope your nose enjoys the smell of your own piss as your backside gets lit up.

It's only a matter of time until it breaks again. Better start scrounging Craigslist for a replacement or hit up ZXAppeal...He seems to know appliances pretty well.

i'm pretty positive it is broken again right now WHAT THE FUCK i need to do laundry

now it is on the "rinse" cycle and just filling and draining and filling and draining and filling and draining with water.

the fuck is wrong with this piece of shit. its not my washing machine so i don't know what the fuck to do.

oh and

she peed because she was scared. and she has been abused. so i think i'll go ahead and NOT hit her. since being frightened is what causes the pee.

12/10/2010 7:25:44 PM

seriously

no one knows how washing machines work ITT?

12/10/2010 7:38:11 PM

^doesn't matter. 2 abused dogs at the parents house before I went to college, 1 out of 2 here. We even found one beat up and left for dead in a dumpster. Peed on the bed, dug up moms expensive japanese tree, ate off the table, was in the kitchen while we were cooking, bit the cat. Those are the major offences that were 110% sure to render a beating. A "spanking" if you will - perhaps beat was the wrong word. So how are you communicating with this dog? "Awww, you were abused as a child - it's ok to get away with murder?"

We also keep treats around the house for appropriate responses - like being awesome. "Are you an awesome dog and didn't pee all over the bed? Yes you are."

Eh... maybe your situation is different. It just annoys me when people don't bother to discipline their animals or their kids.

So - have you pulled out the washer, checked the drain hose or damage and made sure it's not clogged (drop it in a bucket or out the window to find out.)

12/10/2010 7:41:23 PM

^^ It's because you have a habit of thanking JESUS and not the actual person who helped you, bitch. At the very least, you could thank someone who is real.

12/10/2010 7:43:36 PM

^ HOW DO THEY WORK?

12/10/2010 7:44:55 PM

^^^ it still doesn't work you dumb motherfucker

so no one is getting thanked.

i gave divababy a kissyface if you bothered to read the thread. yes, READ. try it sometime.

anyways. if it starts filling/draining filling/draining incessantly, i just turn the knob all the way back around and let it start over from the part of the cycle it was on and it works. i just don't get what causes that. is the water level sensor messed up or something?

Oh. I didn't know some emoticon that was used to promote homosexuality was the same as thanking a person. So when you kissed the lame ass boy on the cheek at your HS because he had a crush on you for 3 years, did you really mean, "thank you for being such a lame ass, otherwise I would have given you superhead?"

12/10/2010 7:51:20 PM

yes. yes, i did.

12/10/2010 7:52:50 PM

Bitch.

[Edited on December 10, 2010 at 7:53 PM. Reason : And fuck your washing machine. Do it by hand like a good woman.]

12/10/2010 7:53:27 PM

QUEEN BITCH

and i DO wash some of my laundry by hand. they're called hand washables!

[Edited on December 10, 2010 at 7:56 PM. Reason : .]

12/10/2010 7:56:01 PM

Then I suggest you write handwashable on the fucking tag AND GET TO WORK!

12/10/2010 7:59:15 PM

well i don't have a washing board. someone give me their 6 pack abs and then maybe i'll consider it.

^ i'm clearly not looking at you, butterball.

12/10/2010 8:00:54 PM

A keg works better than a 6 pack. Greatest bang for your buck. Feel free to squander your money away on stupid shit. That is why NO MAN WILL EVER MARRY YOU!.

This is where I go when my shit breaks - http://www.southhillslaundry.com/

It's clean and not nearly as creepy as other laundromats.

12/10/2010 8:02:50 PM

word thanks. i'm on my last load of laundry and it appears to be working (when i play with it anyway) but i'll keep that in mind

NOT as awesome as the suds and duds in greensboro (bar and laundromat) but i'll take it.

^^ duh

but it wasn't just installed so i was hoping for a little elaboration. especially because sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. and i read also that there is a water sensor that can get messed up (or have an error code that needs to be reset) soooo i was wondering if that was more likely given the fact that sometimes it does fill but then gets stuck during certain phases of the cycle.
