fitted sheet: over here too boys, lots of room

God forbid you also put a flat sheet in. You're better off just throwing the whole tangled mess in the trash, washing machine included.

Literally think of this meme any time I'm washing a duvet cover or fitted sheet

I just always close them after taking them off the bed

What... do you mean? Like fold them up so nothing can get in? That works??

[–] Micromot@lemmycook.de 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

They have a zipper or buttons

Some of my duvet covers just have an opening and nothing to close it.

[–] Micromot@lemmycook.de 1 points 2 years ago

I don't have those

Oh what about fitted sheets

[–] Micromot@lemmycook.de 2 points 2 years ago

idk they kind of still do that by themselves, maybe wash them all at once if you have enough for a load

And then you find stragglers in there a week later

Bahaha the big sock is what I shall call the duvet cover from now on!

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

The big sock is waiting for you kind stranger.

A paper on this phenomenon would certainly get the Ig Nobel prize!

Thank you for reminding me to switch my laundry!

Don't forget the dryer sheet.
