Dear EDOCLaundry.com,
I love you. I love your fancy splotchy graphics, your shiny dude with no mouth and your mysterious “nothing to hide” back .asp pages. I hate that you’re coded in annoying Flash that makes me unable to copy and paste anything, but I’ll eventually get over that.
What I can’t get over, however, dear edoclaundry.com, is how you INSIST on resizing my browser. And not to any neat, interesting size that really aids in my enjoyment of you, but in a ginormously wide and full screen rendition that means that my browser window gets so bloody huge that I am unable to reach the “minimize” button in the upper right corner BECAUSE YOU HAVE MOVED IT OFF THE PAGE. *pant pant* (See Below example; Click for larger image)

How am I supposed to browse candidly during work? What if I’m trying to do some reading, a quick check on the site to see if there’s anything new, and my boss walks in at that exact moment?! I’M SCREWED! I CAN’T MINIMIZE! I’d have to quickly, and while talking shop, shift window over, move, minimize, adjust you so that I can minimize you with ease.
And I’m sorry, I realize you might find this upsetting, but I don’t see that the resizing adds anything special to my enjoyment of you. I’d love you even if you were only 850px by 600px in dimension.
Please, Edoclaundry.com, spare your friends the pain. Some women say bigger is better, and that girthy is great, but in this instance, you’re too big and too girthy - you’re hurting me. Don’t RESIZE - ECONOMIZE!
Thank you,
Sincerely,
Jackie K

ADDENDUM - Thanks to my friends on LiveJournal, I have overcome The Annoyance of Browser Resizing by going into Mozilla -> Options -> Content -> JavaScript Advanced Settings -> and dechecking “allow resizing of windows”. I have foiled you, strange web design people. You will not hold me down. Mwahahahah! I SHALL SPREAD THE WORD AGAINST YOU!!!

Amusing Google searches from the weekend:
“Pooped Her Pants” - I’m glad that this search doesn’t put us on the first page of Google. Though anyone that scrambles that deeply into a Google search for Pant Pooping has their own set of problems that reading this guide will not solve. It can, however, give you something to do and read while you’re waiting for your pants to get out of the dryer.
“Do Guys Wear EDOC Clothes?” - Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus. And he is totally rockin’ out in his Loyalty T-shirt, ho ho ho’ing down the North Pole like an exotic dancer.
“Laundry Clothes Bleeding Red” - This sounds like some new college freshman guy managed to throw his latest girlfriend’s red panties in with his tightie whities in the wash. My advice to you, dear sir, is to not do that again. But if it does happen, then take your whities and add some Clorox bleach to the wash. This should clear out a lot of the pink. Not all of it, mind you, so in reality you may just want to wander down to the WalMart and pick up some new ones.
Call of the hounds, my friends. The word has come down that the EDOC Laundry ad that is More Than An Ad will be in the upcoming (May/June) issue of YRB Magazine, not one of the current or past issues.
So, we can stop hounding the store now
At least until they start selling EDOC Clothing, in which case we’ll hound them constantly, those poor poor children, working the retail store, oblivious to our obsessions and wondering why we keep asking if they mind if we take pictures of the inner waist bands of the T-shirts.
Blog author JACKIE dons EDOC, gets mocked by unstylish science dork for being “weird” about online fun. Author nearly commits homicide via pipette, but instead turns on Madonna and gets down.
About a week ago, I happened to get my grubby hands wrapped around the Floral t-shirt, and today, after much debate about how to handle the backlessness of the shirt and my need for frontal load holding (hidden bra camisole top underneath has solved problem), I decided to wear it.
I pranced into lab this morning, tra la la, feeling all hot n’ shit, working my Floral and wearing my perfume named Smut. I. Am. Awesome. In my head, I’m singing Rod Stewart “IIIIF you think I’m sexy AAAAND you want my BOOODY…”
I’m stopped by the post-doc: “Did you, uhhh, lose the back of your shirt and decide to just tie it up instead?”
I’m hoping he’s attempting to be witty- he is rather dryly humored, but sometimes it’s hard to tell. So I laugh good naturedly, and say that Nooo, this is how it’s supposed to be…
“Isn’t it cool? And see, down here under the waistband, it’s got this code that says “Nothing to Hide” and it matches up to this code back here *twists around to back* over the symbol thing, and this says “NEVER” and you take that word and type it into the website, and you get a video of part of a story. It’s like, a 2000’s version of the American Revolution with Rock and Road Head.”
He looks at me and asks what this company is called. I say, proudly “EDOC Laundry! It says CODE backwards!”
His head shaking, his eyes glazing over, he proclaims “I don’t know where you find all this weird stuff.”
*fumes*
IT’S COOL DAMMIT, YOU STYLE IDIOT! It’s not WEIRD. UGH! You only wish you were this freakin’ awesome! Mmm Hmmm MMM hmmm
Anyways, despite being de-rockstarred for a moment in time, I’m still workin’ the EDOC and spreading the word.
Have a story about EDOC you’d like to share? Pass it on via our Contact Page!
Meet Lyn Saunder. She has the heart of a musician, but the talent of a sound engineer. So instead of playing in a rock’n'roll band herself, she lets would-be bands use her studio — at a price inversely proportional to the band’s talent — while she just basks in the music.
Actually, it’ll be a little hard for you to meet Lyn. She’s disappeared, you see. That happened shortly after the band Poor Richard broke up. And that was just after the murder.
…Maybe we should start at the beginning.
HOW IT BEGAN
In January of 2003, a trust fund kid named Arnold Waterman-King brought another kid named Jeff Randolf to Lyn’s studio to play a couple of songs he’d written. Jeff’s voice was average; his guitar playing barely adequate… but his words could have parted seas, changed the course of rivers, moved mountains. They certainly moved Lyn.
Lyn made plans to have Madison Rose James, a fantastic singer wasting away in a mediocre band, sing one of Jeff’s songs. Madison Rose was hooked as fast as Lyn, and brought with her Sam Fifield, her former band’s drummer. Now all they needed was a guitarist. Fortunately, the best guitarist Lyn knew, Adam Boylston, was trying to put together a band. Again. Adam, it seems, has a personality that can make him somewhat difficult to get along with. Lyn volunteered her studio, and Madison Rose auditioned with some of Jeff’s material, with Sam on drums and Adam’s new girlfriend, Abigail Quincy, on keyboards.
Between Jeff’s music, Adam’s playing, and Madison Rose’s voice, Poor Richard was formed before the last chord had faded.
WHAT WE KNOW
Poor Richard records its first tracks, but Adam’s refusal to deal with the “suits” at major record labels delays their release. Six months later, Arnold meets with a fatherly fellow named George Ball from a smaller label, who agrees to help but warns the band not to count on him too heavily. Meanwhile, Poor Richard plays clubs and other small venues, and its popularity skyrockets.
Of course, things are never easy. Sam turns out to have a fairly serious heroin addiction. Jeff has some difficulty with the concept of property belonging to other people. Arnold steals petty cash, and schemes behind everyone’s back to sell Poor Richard to giant Hanover Media. And, of course, there are the romantic entanglements: Sam lusts after Madison Rose, who lusts after Jeff, who lusts after both Abigail and Madison Rose. And Lyn documents it all, in photographs and audio tapes and transcripts and even the occasional video. Oh, the drama! Oh, the angst! Oh, the–
And then someone dies, and suddenly things get a little uglier.
WHAT WE KINDA SORTA KNOW
We’re missing a lot of information about the next year and a half, but someone — a male — allegedly jumps off a bridge. Blood seeps from the body’s wrists as it lies under the sheet. A year later, Arnold loses his temper and assaults Lyn. Hanover Media sues Poor Richard and confiscates their tracks. It turns out that Arnold’s trust fund has dried up, and he has gone heavily into debt with the shady “Mr. Dillon.” And then, someone else gets electrocuted in Lyn’s studio.
Everyone seems to think Lyn did it. She says she didn’t. We believe her, don’t we?
Today, the band is gone. Madison Rose has quit singing altogether. Jeff has disappeared. Lyn has changed her name and fled the country. She has managed to leave behind two things, however: first, the Poor Richard web site, which Jeff’s girlfriend Sally is now running; and second, clues on all of EDOC’s apparel, each unlocking another piece of the band’s story.
WHAT WE DON’T KNOW
What’s with the “mirror behind the bar…”?
Who committed suicide?
Was it suicide?
Who was murdered?
Who is the murderer?
Will we ever get to hear any of Poor Richard’s music?
Why is Lyn telling this story on clothing?
How is Lyn telling this story on clothing?
Where did Sally come from?
Will the murderer strike again?
And what about… Naomi?
