Why are laundromats sexy? (lemmy.world)

Everybody always presents laundromats in tv shows and movies as this sexy place where you meet horny singles who aren't wearing underwear because it's in the wash.

But in real life, that just isn't true. The laundromat has angry people who don't want to be there, and nobody EVER has sex, or takes their clothes off.

So why are laundromats always presented like that?

In my town, junkies hang out at the laundromat begging for money. The cops show up regularly and haul them off. I saw prostitutes outside of it once, too

    Bud, if you've ever encountered an angry meth zombie trapped in an enclosed space with you, you'd know the pain.

    Congrats on recovering. Doesn't give you an excuse to be a bitch though.

    Congrats on being privileged to never need to go through that hell, and talking down to those who did.

    I don't need to justify myself to you, but my response to the other poster was completely valid. If he's using terms like "meth zombies" and denigrating public facilities that allow addicts to enter because of their presence then he deserves every ounce of contempt he gets.

    I'll accept a thank you for the explanation but any other response will result in a block.
