Is top loader the new curse word or revived trend?
Comments (11)We went with a GE front loader (Adora model, which was a HUGE and expensive mistake!) because we needed a large enough washer capacity to wash a king size comforter and we could only find a front loader that would handle that. It's true that the front loaders use less water, save energy and are theoretically easier on the clothing because there is no agitator, but our GE experience has been a nightmare. The door seals tend to leak and develop mold, the GE Adora's walk all over the floor when spinning and simply cannot be balanced. We will look for a top loader next time and we'll buy the largest capacity washer we can find that isn't a "GE" brand. Oh, another thing... with the front loaders, you have to (I believe) use only HE detergent...Not a huge issue for us, but it does limit your laundry detergent selection......See MoreWord Game: Words From A Word PART 2

Comments (49)Wood - Glad you are enjoying the wonderful "Child/Forest" book. My library has the prettiest edition of this, and I donated the other two in the trilogy, but have a strong feeling they went into the FoL book sale instead of on the shelves which I had intended to make up the trilogy for other people. As for the adding of the "-ie" sound to words in English, that is quite common even now. "Brekkies" - breakfast "Sarnies" - sandwiches "Prezzies" - presents/gifts Also, there used to be a penchant for reducing some names to "-az" such as: Sharon --> Shaz or Shazzer Barry --> Baz or Bazzer Des --> Dezzie This might just be my group of friends though... We had a mixed bunch (social class speaking) and I think this shortening was a lower class trend... I could be mistaken as it may vary in other regions......See More5 word game
