dryer for them so you can use the washer? I did and some guy walked up on me as I was doing it and he said "hey kid (im 27 years old but look young) I don't appreciate you touching my clothes"
and I said "hey lady, my life doesn't revolve around you watching stories" he got pissed started his dryer.. now im having to sit out here watching my clothes so this dude doesn't try something funny
am I in the wrong?

If done passive agressively it might be considered rude, but if it is done because shit need did then you would be within your own right to tell this man that if he wasn't too busy sitting in the corner with his thumb up his ass nobody would have to clean up after him like his mother.
-
Definitely not rude, what's rude is being a dipshit and leaving your clothes in the washer after they're done when someone is waiting on it.
-
yeah, they are definitely the asshole. its not hard to put a timer on your phone.
we do this shit in the dorms, some assholes will take the laundry, and if there isn't a dryer open, just dump it on top of the washer. if the dryers are done and someone needs them, they get dumped on the floor.

Been there before myself, and communal laundry facilities in an apartment complex can be a real pain in the ass. What kills me is when a WHOLE FUCKIN DAY passes and you are checking on their shit every 3 or 4 hours and it still hasn't been moved. Depending on my work schedule I would finally just lay their clothes on a table or wherever.
The worst was when I had the complete opposite happen to me. I went to take clothes out of the washer , and found my stuff in the sink with the washer running with someone else's shit. They obviously interrupted the cycle because my clothes were soaking drenched and never went through the spin phase. So I put my laundry in the dryer and then took their stuff out and threw it all over the floor, the nastiest corners I could find, everywhere.
I went apeshit and started yelling for all could here..."whoever the fuckin dickhead was that messed with my laundry, can now find it on the floor. Although, I'll be here for at least an hour guarding my drying cycle, so unless you want to deal with me, I suggest you come back later".....along with a litany of expletives. This is one of the many cases where being known as the crazy assertive guy can be a positive. ;)
I grabbed a book from my apartment and camped out till my clothes were done, and only a couple of neighbors came up after hearing the ruckus getting a good chuckle since they didn't do it and was hoping to watch me throw down with someone.
Only advice I can give is try to do your laundry during weird hours when most people are at work or asleep...lessening the probability of having to mingle with lazy and idiotic people.

whats even worse is when people steal items of your clothing out of the dryers.

why would you need to dump there stuff on the floor to use a dryer? dryers are usually side loaded...

"I've worked the past ten hours hauling around two hundred pound concrete filled tubes in ankle deep mud, Please don't give me a reason to hit you."
[Edit]
Also missed out on an opportunity to go to the washroom with an empty cup and piss in it so when you threw it into the dryer you could of added a "little extra". Don't smell so bounty fresh now anymore eh cocksucker! ;D

When I was in the military it was common courtesy to leave clothes that finished the wash cycle on top of the washer just in case the owner wanted a special drying cycle. It was also common courtesy to sit and watch the tv during the last few minutes of the wash and dry cycle to make sure no one else was inconvenienced by a dead washer or dryer. No one would ever interrupt a cycle...that would result in that person never being able to do laundry again. Ive seen rude launderers get their shit left in trash cans, thrown out the door onto the ground, 'dirty-dicked' and used as toilet paper. There was a douche who pissed someone off so was watching his load to make sure it stayed safe. A previous victim ran up to the machine before he could stop him and dropped something in that ruined every piece of clothing. One uniform cost about $100 at the time and there were multiple ones in

Nah, the way my mind works it would have been as if they were "chasing me away"....and won some kind of dominance over the laundry area. At that point that place was MY DOMAIN in a metaphorical sense since it was a 12 unit building, and I was really hoping the sad little fucktard had come back.

When i Was doing my time in county we had a washer and dryer to wash our jumpsuit in because I made trustee and we wore blue jumpsuit instead of orange. Whenever your clothes were done drying we would just yell DRYER and you better go get your clothes or theyre going to be picked through and then thrown on the floor. That was the main thing people would argue over, the laundry lol.
Anyways op you did the right thing and i would have done the same.

they are stacked.

My experience in the barracks was you watched your laundry with the eye of a hawk, you know the old adage: "there is only one thief in the army; everyone else is just trying to get their shit back."
At the time of my enlistment it cost about $70 for a set of ACU's, ($35 for the trousers/$35 for the top) though ACU's weren't the prime target but the PT uniform shirt's sure disappeared fast.
I was lucky in that my room was on the corner of the U-shaped barracks and the laundry rooms were housed at the corners of every floor. In basic it was easier to determine laundry thieves because of the exaggerated captive audience, but with a barracks housing everything from Commo to Engineers' unmarried NCOs/full bird privates and below it was harder to figure out who stole what. I remember some fuckwit in basic stole my fucking laundry bag, tried playing it off like it was his, till I turned it inside out and it revealed the decal I bartered with another recruit to stencil the platoon eblem, and my first initial/last name/last four that I sharpied on the top right corner.

They make you pay for uniforms in the military? Damn nigga, even enlisting isn't free anymore.
-
You are supplied about 3 pairs (IIRC), but anything after that, whether through wear and tear or thievery(sure you don't have to replace one of the 3 issued, but it really is a thorn in your side when you have two uniforms to last you a week and are expected to have immaculate gear for whatever/any occasion). you have to replace until you can de-ex them, which that opportunity only happens every so often.
...And you can pick up cheaper ACU sets for cheaper then $70/pair at military surplus stores, but the chances of them being clean enough for inspection/whatever NCO nitpicking's is worth the few extra bucks.

What happened after that? I realize the repercussions if you gave him a beatdown and like a chickenshit he would report you...but that sounds like blanket party material at the very least to me. Finish the story....

Comes the day you get out on the range to see if you're any good hopefully you got the guys that hand out the ammo in your back pocket, Few good round on top, Blanks on bottom.
Can't aim worth a shit then you better be good at scrubbing it.

Let's just say a lot of the people in my platoon who was missing gear 'found' what was missing, and he ended up paying a few hundreds of dollars to pay for gear he 'lost.'
I got the whole platoon smoked for pissing in this fatfucks 1 qt cantine. While we were rolling in the mud, the Drill Sergeant stressed the fact that atleast I was man enough to admit my wrongdoings because "people don't piss in cantines for no reason." The fucker pocketed a package of M&M's from an MRE that he was supposed to give up to the Drill Sergeant because candy was "contraband."
He offhandedly mentioned to me how he was feeling pretty "high" from the chocolate during toe the line. The next morning I found the wrapper in my footlocker, and I figured not only is he fat and lazy but too stupid to dispose of the evidence properly, (I usually flushed my candy wrappers down the toilet) so I just put the wrapper back in his foot locker thinking no harm no foul. The same wrapper ended up back in my locker, and then I deduced that he had malicious intent, so I decided to give him a surprise for the next hydration drill. Of course he went to the Drill Sergeants to rat me out, but didn't have the balls to own up to why I did what I did.
We had a lot of hypocrites and rats in the 'racks. For example of the the PG's was berating me at breakfast for being the 'contraband king,' going on about how he quit using tobacco weeks before enlisting... I looked at him, said "Bullshit, you've bought dip since, you just didn't know it was from me." The pizza faced farmboy didn't have much to say after that.

What's really scary is sometimes when I get my laundry it'll have childrens clothing mixed into my own, like a pair of underwear clearly belonging to someone that's like under the age of 8. I'll then start thinking to myself "did I rape a child in my sleep"?
