I had to write an email today about a work party for a colleague who is getting married, and today I learned it is spelled (and pronounced) nuptials instead of nupitals (nup-i-tals). Whoops! I'm 30.

Aaron Eckhart is not Jamie Lannister. I had to look this up because I am an idiot and identify people by chin.

I totally thought this too!! Except in reverse. I am totally the stereotypical goon with borderline prosopagnosia.

I thought of another one! Regarding Donald Trump's hideous troll sons. I thought that DT jr was Eric, and vice versa. Not that this matters in my life in any way.

:sad:

I've disliked Susan Sarandon for years because of one particular role she played that I just really couldn't stand. Turns out:





Not the same person.

Lesley Ann Warren is the lady I can't stand. :downs:

Good thing you figured that out, because Susan Sarandon is the bomb

Today, at the age of 31, I finally figured out how to properly fold a fitted sheet by myself. I had always been using the method taught to me by my late great Single Dad, and they always ended up looking like a lumpy pile of elasticized poo poo. Today after flailing around with one for several minutes like some moron from black-and-white infomercial land, I finally thought there must be a better way!

I am equal parts proud and ashamed of myself.

Teach me your ways. I just kind of roll them into a tube and it feels wrong somehow.

Lol!! Basically what sweeperbravo said. Disregard the elastic, and find the little peaks in each corner. Line those up like you would do with a normal flat sheet, and fold away! Make sure the elastic parts stay tucked in somewhat and aren't spilling out the sides. Still a little lumpy, but an actual rectangle!

My Dad used to make me help him, and we would.....like tuck one of the corners into the other, which resulted in kind of a curved long tube shape, and then fold that in on itself. I don't even know.

Today my lesson is that it is difficult to describe how to fold a fitted sheet.
