My fiancé throws her dirty laundry down the stairs rather than walking down and putting it in machine.(i.redd.it)
Newt also appears to disapprove.

I mean I don't think the fiance cares, they're just one of those people who don't view piles of clothes as a mess. I don't really either, but I'm not a tidy person to begin with
This is exactly how I did it before I moved out of my place with built in laundry. I'm not doing a full load, I'm not walking all the way down the stairs. There is no difference to me between keeping my dirty clothes in a pile in my bedroom versus a pile in the basement. I actually prefer the pile where I'm not hanging out all the time
I'm the opposite, I prefer to have the pile of clothes where I spend more time in so that I'm constantly reminded of when there's enough clothes for a full load
I grew up with it being normal. There were four to six (numbers reduced as the elder ones moved out) kids in the house, my mom, my dad, and we lived in a 2 story house. put your laundry at the bottom of the stairs or it didn't get done. Made for an awesome landing pad for us when we did stupid shit that would otherwise get us hurt. (like jumping from the fourth or higher stairs, running down/up the stairs, rolling each other down in round storage bins... etc..)
Piles of "stuff" attracts bugs, that is why hoarders always have roaches.
This is true even if there is no food in the pile of "stuff".
Of course, if you are picking the laundry back up and washing it within a reasonable amount of time you'll be fine, but leaving it lying around on the floor eventually leads to unsanitary conditions.
Letting clothes accumulate once a week at the bottom of the steps doesn’t create “unsanitary conditions.” I get what you’re saying but you’re being a bit dramatic for the situation being discussed here.
Theoretically, the laundry hamper would do the same thing anyway, right? The roaches all gather to the clothes in the basket? Except that's not how it works and the person you're responding to is a dumbfuck.
