I just neatly folded two fitted sheets. AMA.

This is a known impossibility unless you have special powers, sort of like how the Guild bends time and space. ๐Ÿคจ, do you have very blue eyes?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I wouldn't call that blue on its own. They glow and send light towards you, resulting in a blue shift and turning the light blue.

This is amazing. Not only can you serve breakfast across the Pacific Ocean on demand, but can fold fitted sheets!!!! What sorcery is this? I need to learn. Or hand in my witchcraft brownie badge.

The trick is to fortify the sheet with toast to make them easier to fold.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Toast. I think I understand. Will have to crank up the steam powered iron to its absolute max for this methinks.

I tried to learn this and never really got the hang of it.

The key: fold the sewn corners.

What Taleya says. Find the seams.

Almost sounds like folding dumplings or pastry.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I am unfortunately terrible at that.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I tried the spoony thing but could never get the final package to look nice and neat. Your powers are suspicious...

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Once they're all spooning you need to shake them and pull them a bit to make them submit to your powers.
