A combination of the french word "Vendredi" meaning "Friday" and "Laundry". The Friday you start your laundry, sometimes being finished over the course of the weekend.
Most busy people only have this time available to do laundry, due to a hectic weekday schedule, and usually things to do on the weekends as well.

Mark: Hey want to go clubbing tonight?
Jack: I can't man, it's Laundredi.
"Crap! I have a tournament this Friday. Laundredi will have to be pushed to next week."
Jen: Gee, Alice, you've got a huge laundry pile!

Get the Laundredi mug.Any musak heard in a laundromat in the 1970's. Experience is perfected by the presence of avacado green dryers, burnt umber washing machines, wallpaper with orange asterisks, contact paper on the countertops festooned with olive drab polka-dotted mushrooms, and Family Circle magazines in the seating area.

Get the gift card laundering mug.Reputational laundering - the act of appearing to do good publicly in order to offset a negative image. A technique usually employed by individuals or corporations who have made their money in a morally questionable fashion and who wish to appear to have a moral conscience.
Reputational laundering often comes in the form of Corporate Social Responsibility, where a relatively trivial sum of profits are donated by the corporation to fund socially oriented activities in order to suggest that the corporation is socially responsible.
An example, often sited, would be major oil companies giving charitable funds to communities in the Nigeria Delta whose original livelihoods they were implicit in destroying through the extraction of crude oil.
However the practice of reputational laundering is by no means exclusive to corporations. Many morally bankrupt individuals donate money to charity in order that they are seen to care about social or environmental issues. As an added benefit to their undeservedly improved public image they also enjoy significant tax breaks on their donations.
