How do I always end up with purple? I pretty much wear blue, green, and black… no red

Yep. I wash a load of whites about twice a year when I have to make a special appearance in particularly white special clothes. Anything else goes in together.

And only if every item you have shed lint evenly (proportional to their surface area.)

Maybe you took the wrong pills. Either way , good luck.

I did. My girlfriend took Ozzy in the car and I followed in the truck when we moved houses. I followed them from the part of Florida that is on Central Time and is really lower Alabama to Tampa. I never did see Laurence Fishburne in pince-nez, nor did I ever see Carrie Ann Moss in skintight leather, and that's just a travesty.

Do you follow them ?

I feel that, I have white rabbits.

Not if the only form of matter that can be created are various types of knee height trousers.

If --> when

As a dog owner, they are constantly coated in dog hair... unless they have a hairless dog.

I dont dry my shirts/pants in the dryer because of shrinkage

The color of my dryer lint matches the sorted color of clothes I just washed. I clean out the king tray before each use. As well as the water drawer to be almost empty, since some water is needed to properly dry

Dr Karl won an ignoble prize about this. Look it up or don't. Your call.

Me too. Fun that is. The color of the lint is the average of all 'shedding' clothes tilted to the color of the items that are shedding the most.

For real, people make a big deal about separating whites from colours. I throw it all in one load and use cold water. Way easier, nothing bleeds.

That assumes your clothes shed lint at the same amount. But that's highly unlikely.

It'll probably come from 'something' we just wont realize until its too late and we're too dependent on it to stop.
