This morning

Husband:  (sarcastically) Is there any chance my trousers are going to get washed before Christmas?
Me: (pointedly) They're in the machine now!
Husband: (pointing to the trousers he is wearing) What about these?
Me: I didn't know you wanted those washed. You only left one pair on the bed this morning.
Husband: I said I needed trousers washing. That's plural!

I'll leave you to imagine my reply. 

Husband stomped upstairs muttering about how I'll have to put up with him wearing dirty trousers over Christmas.

A situation like this is not uncommon. It left me wondering why he could not use the machine himself.

Maybe stuff him in the washing machine as is?

I agree with both the preceding comments.

Perhaps you could introduce him to the washing machine. It's time they met.

Love,

So many possibilities for a response to that.
