Hmm... Could you be a little more discriptive, where did you here this. Do you have the resource? Otherwise that would be kinda cool, never having to wash clothes or caring about accidently spilling soup on your new clothes! :hehe:

if you think that is weird... i was in walmart the other day buying laundry detergent and they have this solution that you supposedly soak your clothes in and it makes them protect you from the sun... ::raises eyebrow:: if you are wearing clothes, isn't that part of your body protected anyways?!?!

Two Chinese scientists have come up with the perfect solution to every laundrophobe's biggest problem -- by developing clothes that never get dirty

I wonder how much you would have to pay for that type of clothing.

I would say they would be pretty expensive, but it would be worth it to never wash your clothes ever again! :)

I bet no matter the amount, it'll give Chanel a run for her money.

That is kind of cool... but if it's expensive the ones who buy it will be those who don't even do their own laundry in the first place :P

It sounds interesting...

Wow, that made me think..and now I'm afraid that if I wore pants made out of that stuff I'd lose a leg.

^ Maybe evil self-cleaning clothes.......no thanks, I'll stick with my un-intelligent clothes.
If the price was the same as normal clothes, yeah, maybe I'd give it a try..but..intelligent? *shiver*

I heard they wove special little microchips into the clotheing...
All you have to do is put it in natural light and it will take the stains and/or smells out of the clothes :rolleyes: ...

:confusion: The whole things sounds a little weird to me. I'd rather just wash my clothes, thanks. Wouldn't they get faded if you left them out in the sun to clean them?

Haha, I'm trying to imagine evil, intelligent clothing:

"And what's that pocket for?"
"Oh, that's for the extra brain."
"Where'd it go?"
"Oh God. It's loose."
