folding a fitted sheet

I just realised that the only reason I have 2 sheets is because i lost the first one. I was sleeping with a duvet cover as a sheet for about 6 months.

If you guys like that, check this out...

Also why would anybody iron a sheet?

It's attitudes like this that have led to the decline of the UK manufacturing base to only 10% of GDP. Have a think about that when your daughter ends up as the concubine of a chinese industrialist and your son comes home with no arms after fighting the belgians for the last piece of coal in western europe.

Plus Limmy would crush ya bassa.

My bed is about 7'6" up from the floor so I have to climb up and sit on the mattress in order to put the folded sheet on the bed - which is actually more annoying than trying to fold it (which I never do (due to the "having only 1 fitted sheet" rule - see above)). Putting on a sheet that involves lifting the corners of the mattress and stretching the sheet while sitting on it and having to do little bounces and stretch the sheet under you while in mid bounce which in turn makes the bed support struts creak causing you to think the frame is going to collapse is quite a chore.

please dear god put that up on youtube next time you have to do it.

have your mil fold that shit.

my issue with those fuckers is when I go to put it on the bed I always put it on sideways and have to start over. I have a 50/50 shot of getting it longways and I put it sideways 100% of the time. making the bed is a woman's job anyway.

The other reason I used to viciously beat my exgirlfriend is because she would put the duvet on the blanket the wrong way and when we'd sleep she would have the blanket longways across us meaning my feet would stick out of the bottom of the blanket.

I would ninja steal a footjob from you while you slept with those bare boats hanging out

if you're folding it just to save space, rather than make it look nice... don't fold it, roll it up as tightly as you can

All you'd have to do is ask. I have feet with skill.

burn a hole in the middle. fart through the hole. sew the hole up. wad the sheet up. unwad the sheet. wad it up again. sleep in a trash bag.

this gave me a hearty lol

also, that instruction youtube vid is great, i never thought you can do that.

my fitted sheet comes off of one side of the bed every couple of nights or so. it's goddamn infuriating. i only have one though, which eliminates the need for folding.

I've just folded a fitted sheet and was declared a god in my household. I can now fold t-shirts and fitted sheets. I'm going to post to that woman to ask if she can fold space and time. She'll probably tell me to take each corner of space and fold it that way. Then she'll look down her nose at me and get the butler to scuttle me back 'downstairs' and to 'not make a fuss as to disturb them above.'

I'm clearly retarded. I just tried that and ended up with a bundle the size of Mercury.

Holy shit, I love Centurix so hard.

I also had a high-up loft-bed once - 5' high, with chilling space underneath . It was cool but yeah very hard to get the sheets on, either fitted or unfitted were equally difficult. I think there's only one way to do it and thats the way you describe.

so is mine, get this thread off the goddamn board and go back to your sunday golf-games or diaper changing, NO SHEETS UP IN MY SHIT!

Fitted sheets aren't even necessary.

I think most hotels use a flat sheet instead - probably because fitted sheets are a pain in the ass to fold.

When you wash one it grabs everything else in the wash inside itself. Which is pretty stupid.
