But Can Your Washing Machine Play Darth Vader’s Star Wars Theme? (VIDEO)

Guest post by Kay Honda

If you leave your husband home alone…. sooner or later he will need to figure out how to use a washing machine. Probably he will play The Imperial March (Darth Vader’s Theme) from Star Wars. May the Force be with all home alone left husbands.

DigitalLoupe’s preface says it all for the nerd-tastic video about to reach 200,000 views. We’re living in an age where obsolete gender roles are being reconfigured and blurred around the edges. Men can do laundry, and women can adore Star Wars. It’s a beautiful thing.

As with most things nerdy, we’re left thinking that playing the Imperial March from Star Wars on laundry settings is really cool and awesome. But we’re also wondering how much time you have to take out of your day to figure out how to do such a thing.

When the great Force of Clean is met with the Darth Vader’s dark Jedi choking skills, two great worlds come together, and you can’t help but smile.
