I’ll add one of mine:

Spending $100.00 at the bar is not essential.

[RatRipper]

I have sheets in the dryer I can test on when I get home. Again, thank you.

Re: 5; don’t fold, WAD, stick in closet.

Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone and Pinning the tail on the Donkey –but I’d bet everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time.

Find and push that button while half asleep - every time.

18. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong brothers and sisters!

I literally LOL'd on this one. Pillowcases are also easier to put on inside out, as well.

Folding a fitted sheet:

Hold up the sheet longways. Put your hands in the two top corners. Put hands together and put one corner inside the other (you’ve folded it in half). Do the same to the other two corners so that you have all four corners tucked in together (you’ve folded it into a quarter). Lay the sheet down and smooth the fitted sides so that it’s a nice square. Fold to fit the storage space. No biggie. Super simple.

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.

I still have 600 VHS. What I recorded myself will NOT be sold on disc

[bgill]

Basically, just get the corners all tucked into one corner. When that’s done, it’s folded into quarters. Then it’s just a matter of aligning or smoothing out the edges so it’s a nice square and then fold to fit the linen closet.

I stand up, can’t do it sitting down. 1) Ok, put your hands in two corners (a top corner and a bottom corner along one of the long sides), stand up and stretch your arms out. 2) Put your hands together tucking one corner inside the other. 3) Keeping one hand inside the orginal corners, bend down and grab the last two corners. 4) Tuck the last two corners over the orignal corners so that all corners are tucked into one which automatically folds the sheet into fourths. 5) Lay it down (corner and floppy sides up) and smooth the outter edges. 6) Fold as you normally would to store.

HTH.

I haved a lot too- i wish there was a machine that would let you put in a tape and put in a disc and walk away - come back two hours later and it is copied to disk and you can toss it

15. I wish Google Maps had an “Avoid Ghetto” routing option.

Yup.

[grey_whiskers]

The only thing missing was that "Martin Luther King Boulevard" was not underlined. That street name is *always* bad news...

Cheers!

15. I wish Google Maps had an “Avoid Ghetto” routing option.

See post #31 and note especially the name of the street involved.

Cheers!

1. Sometimes I’ll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.

Then upon closer inspection, I realize I am not wearing a watch.

17. How many times is it appropriate to say “What?” before you just nod and smile because you still didn’t hear or understand a word they said?

Careful when dealing with a low-talker, or this might happen.
