I've decided when I being a famous industrial designer I will design all controls of appliances with haiku poetry. Like this one from the 2014 model maytag cold fusion clothes dryer.
Wet
With rain from the heavens
but no longer
perma-press


Would you buy one?

Sure I would buy one.

Sure I would buy one... parents got a maytag neptune washer and dryer.... they are new. They get the clothes clean. What else can I say?

Not to nitpick dude, but
Haiku's are 5-7-5
not 1-6-4-3

like so

liquid fire inside
rain coats me from without
my bladder is full

I'll still buy the dryer though.

I knew my form was off.. damn that "rap" music.

The dryer is warm
for your clothes so natural clean
return once again.

Haiku traditionaly have a nature reference too, right?

Yeah, but as advanced as the neptune series of home apparel cleaning devices are, they don't have haiku interfaces.

Yet.

How embarrasing

Hey I just noticed that "rain coats me from without" is only 6 sylables
how lame is that?
make that "rain drops coat me from without"

oh and yes nature is of the very essence of the hiaku experience.
