[personal profile] copperbadge has been having some issues with his concrete boot. Then this text came from his mum:

Signed you up for laundry service. Put all laundry in plastic bag and leave it outside your door. They will pick it up at 9 tomorrow. Also give them keys. Love you!

His response (not unreasonable: laundry service is win!):

I am frankly over the moon about this because oh my GOD did I not want to do laundry this weekend. At the same time, however, the text makes it sound like the mafia are coming to do my laundry.

"Leave the gun. Take the dry-cleaning."

QWP, Context wants to remind you that starch is really flammable, and it's a real nice shop you got here, mister....

ETA for gender!
