Spray it with a hose first to get the shells off then wash it.

You dont have to.

The shells are gelatin, they dissolve in water.

How old are you that you still don't wash your own clothes?

Watch your thoughts they become words
Watch your words they become actions
Watch your actions they become habits
Watch your habits they become character
Watch your character it becomes your destin

If you don't have to wash your clothes because your mom will do it, why do it yourself? It is just easier that way.

learn to do your cloths now and save yourself a headache when you move out. Measure out a capful of laundry detergent (not bleach, bleach bad) and pour it on the bottom of the washing machine, then put your clothes in on top of that (all color or all whites in one go).

Turn the knob or push buttons until it is doing its "normal" thing. Warm/warm is a good setting for the water. When they are done (like a half hour) take the clothes out and put them in the dryer (unless you have a jersey--take that out and let it air-dry)...set the dryer to run for about an hour. Should be good. Now you are independant of stepmom for laundry help.

s'right, I do a webcomic and I update it like every two months. go go!

I thought warm water was for whites and cold water for darks.

Also if you are going to put the detergent in the washer before the clothes (assuming you have a top loading washer) its best to let the washer fill about a thrid of the way up with water before adding the clothing.

Laundry tips!?  What the fk!!!  Are you kidding me?  Why do any of you need someone else to do this for you is question one?  If it has to be said, fine, follow any of the instructions above, but I'd suggest if you can't clean up your own mess you should find a nice clean game like checkers, but don't spill your milk and cookies.
