Have you ever only noticed that you left one or more tissues when you opened up the dryer and got a surprise, that is, you didn't notice there was a tissue (or tissues) when you transferred the wet clothes to the dryer and you dried the clothes unknowingly with the tissue(s) in there?
Yes! How disgusting! Tissue bits everywhere! They must've been hiding in the pockets, those dirty snotballs!

No, because I noticed the tissue(s) BEFORE I dried the clothes, rewashed the clothes and that took care of that!
