That definitely is an event that falls into the "What the ????? " category.
I had that happen to me, too. I was told that I should not have washed a cotton quilting type cloth.
I don't usually make a fuss, but I do when that happens. And the more people around, the better.
I do try being nice, first. Idiocy annoys me.
