A woman was struggling to stop herself from laughing after asking her husband why he always chooses one particular washing machine cycle – and it has nothing to do with cleaning clothes
When it comes to picking a washing machine cycle you’ll likely take into consideration the material of the clothes being washed, how hot you want the water to be, and how long you want it to go on for.
But for one man, his favourite washing machine cycle has nothing to do with washing clothes. And his wife was recently in stitches after finding out his hilarious reasoning.
Taking to TikTok, content creator Roni Hughes asked her husband to repeat which washing cycle he usually uses, while trying to fight off laughter. Her husband replies that he usually goes “for the Mix one”.
“And why, why do you select the Mix one,” asked Roni, while giggling. Spoken completely calmly, the husband replies: “When you select the temperature it plays the Harry Potter theme tune.”
Roni’s husband demonstrates, and sure enough, the beeps made by the machine sound like Hedwig’s Theme from the Wizarding World film franchise. Understandably, Roni, who “wasn’t expecting that”, she starts laughing.
Other social media users were also in fits of laughter, with one person saying: “This man has life figured out. Respect.” Another commented saying: “I ran so quickly to our washing machine to try this. Mindblown!” “Omg. We have this washing machine I have just found my new cycle,” said a third.
The washing machine brand appears to be Hisense. Mix washing machine cycles are usually designed for washing a mix of different fabrics and colours.
The exact washing machine cycle you need will depend on what you are washing. They usually have a setting for synthetics and cottons, as well as wool/delicate and quick wash. All washing machines also have a temperature setting so you can wash your clothes in cooler or hotter water. Washing clothes at 30C can save you up to 38% on running costs, compared to 40C, according to Which?.
