In the tradition of Helen's "Name Your Sex" thread, I was a bit disappointed by the lack of salaciousness here. That said, around our house laundry is either "clean" or "dirty". *That* said, considering the frequency (or lack thereof) that the laundry gets done with, my wife and I are often forced to resort to wearing items that have been worn and not yet rewashed. This is all to say that a common exchange between us is, "Where are my jeans?"
"They're dirty." (meaning in the clothes hamper or on the floor somewhere)
"I know, but they're not *dirty*, are they?"
I'd like to propose the categories "clean", "wearable", and "stanky".
