22 pieces of clothing, 6 worms and 2 snails

Yes, that's right. I actually counted the articles of clothing just inches away from the hamper in my son's bathroom. Does he have an eyesight problem? Is he just a poor basketball player who can't make the shot? A disrespect for the rules? Or is he just plain lazy?
Now, if you're wondering, I did not find 6 worms and 2 snails underneath the clothing (your first assumption that I actually picked up the clothing would be incorrect - he's 9 years old and is perfectly capable of picking up that mess!). I found the 6 worms and 2 snails (which have yet to be determined whether they are alive or dead) in an empty Cool Whip container. This would be the first major homework assignment for DD7. We will be making terrariums tomorrow in school.
