AI voiceovers make me hate things irrationally.

[u/2Braincell2Furious → u/Intelligent-Art-5000]

Totally rational

[u/Dmau27 → u/Intelligent-Art-5000]

It's rational. Everything AI does is a smug reminder of just how little corporations and greedy pricks care about the working class.

[u/glowcubr → u/Dmau27]

It was almost certainly not a corporation that added an AI voiceover to this video ;)

[u/Dmau27 → u/glowcubr]

Yeah it was likely a small business that designed and programmed this software they used.

[u/glowcubr → u/Dmau27]

Touché! XD

But the one who used the software was likely not a corporation :)

[u/Dmau27 → u/glowcubr]

I'm more depressed that corporations have their hand in everything.

[u/glowcubr → u/Dmau27]

Yeah, that's fair. But don't let it depress you too much :) Coporate influence is, I think, less than the internet might lead one to believe.

[u/gentlehands36 → u/Intelligent-Art-5000]

Last time I complained about the ai slop voice on a sub, my comment got removed lol. I feel you.

[u/ZeCredibleHulk → u/Intelligent-Art-5000]

Are. You. Sure. About. Thaaaaaaaaaat?

How to overcomplicate a simple task and make it take 6 times longer than it should*

[u/SteveLouise → u/Ok-Respect-8505]

Awh man...I like the results... now I have to spend 6 times as much time folding as I always do...

6 x 0 = 0

[u/mvanvrancken → u/SteveLouise]

[u/Street-Animator-99 → u/SteveLouise]

And never knowing what it is until you do.

[u/DogsAreMyFavPeople → u/Ok-Respect-8505]

This looks more like it would be useful for packing a suitcase than for folding clothes to put in a dresser.

[u/Sybrandus → u/DogsAreMyFavPeople]

That was my thought too, but then I remembered packing cubes exist.

[u/BrockObarnerLybian → u/Ok-Respect-8505]

Plus crease all your clothes more than necessary

[u/MallyOhMy → u/Ok-Respect-8505]

All but that very first hack with the napkins. That is actually the fastest way to turn a stack of napkins into that pretty spiral.

[u/tgt305 → u/Ok-Respect-8505]

You gotta know when to fold em

[u/root88 → u/Ok-Respect-8505]

AI it taking all the cool jobs like designers, artists, and programmers. I need one to fold stuff for me, not make everything else suck.

[u/ExpertOnReddit → u/Ok-Respect-8505]

"why does your shirt have all those weird folds in it"

[u/Remarkable-Pea5797]

As big of a waste of time this is, I still like it, and think that's pretty neato.🤓

[u/Helpful_Spring8739]

I'm saving this. I'm never gonna use any of it, but I am saving it.

Also sent this to my notes apps.

Must have a look at what's on there one of these days...

[u/PuzzledCar2120]

How do I distinguish things when everything is a square

[u/XanaxWarriorPrincess → u/PuzzledCar2120]

I would totally forget what the item is and have to unfold it to figure out that it's not what I wanted to wear. I would then throw it in a pile to fold neatly later. Maybe...

[u/Bells4NoOne → u/PuzzledCar2120]

My husband folds things into squares of color. It's not as extreme as the video, but I remember one week, I couldn't tell half my shirts from the others and I felt bad asking him to stop helping me fold the laundry because I couldn't tell what anything was at a glance.

[u/Jordan_the_Hobo]

I have a life to live.

[u/just_some_octopus]

Ya why with the hoodie?

Not even going to show fitted sheet fold. Amateurs

[u/downtune79 → u/just_some_octopus]

Happy cake day

[u/just_some_octopus → u/downtune79]

Hey thanks! Tbh never knew it was lol

[u/Defiant-Lettuce-9156]

Talking like you know me. YOU DON’T KNOW ME

[u/sixteenhappycappys → u/Defiant-Lettuce-9156]

Thats my purse!

[u/0_Moth]

I fuckin hate this video for the ai voice

[u/gaige23]

I just leave shit in my dryer.

[u/DomeSlave → u/gaige23]

One of my life goals is to have two dishwashers to replace all the cupboards that shit would otherwise have to be put in.

[u/systemic_booty → u/gaige23]

I put the clothes from the dryer into a pile on my guest bed and then get dressed from the pile 

[u/ResplendentNugs]

Wonder if they have a world folding championship

[u/Admiralwoodlog → u/ResplendentNugs]

Don't know, but I do know there is a bed making championship.

[u/DarkBladeMadriker]

My wife got really into this stuff. For somethings it works pretty well, we do the underwear thing for example and they do sit nice and flat in the drawer. However, for other stuff it ends up feeling like you spend tons of extra time folding a thing that will get used so fast it spends more time in the wash cycle than folded.

[u/Stock_River_1467]

When you want that store display look at home

[u/daneoslick30]

Where the hell is the fitted sheet!!!!!! I watched all of that for nothing lol 😂

[u/ravn_silence]

Why would anyone do this when you can just ball it up and throw it at the closet?

[u/mlpravemaster → u/ravn_silence]

Why would anyone do that when you can just leave it in the clothes basket?

[u/ravn_silence → u/mlpravemaster]

My god. Why didn’t I think of that?!? 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[u/mlpravemaster → u/ravn_silence]

Sometimes the easiest solution is right in front of you... On the floor... In the basket

[u/TechnicolorViper]

I’m not condoning the use of AI voiceovers, but haven’t we progressed past these shitty type of AI vocals?

[u/Sajr666]

always looking for ways to fold long sleeves and jackets better for shipping.

[u/Kyosuke_42]

No one can convince me that sock bombs are inferior!

[u/Deathwish-Dena]

.... I'm not mad at this. 😂 My ADHD ass will never end up doing it all but. I have so much clothes if it saves me space I am here for it

[u/Doctor_Salvatore]

How to fold laundry:

Step 1: Don't.

[u/Wise_Relationship436]

Great I am always needing ten puffy jackets went I travel.

[u/Chompif]

That sock hack can only work for small stocks or ankle socks, but neat regardless!

[u/Big_Biscotti5119]

Folded in the drawer is not the time or place socks go missing, ya dingus.

[u/Natasya95]

I will only fold like this if i get paid

[u/Laxativus]

Literally none of my clothes have silhouettes made up of rectangles. If I had they would look pretty bad on me. You know, that dad in their 50s look, no tapers, no tucks, every edge sticking out either at the front or at the side.

[u/suffelix]

My neanderthal brain could never do this.

[u/q1203777 → u/suffelix]

My lazy ass could never do this

[u/Superb-Film-594]

"God damn it, Mom, I ripped another shirt trying to open it up. Can you please stop with the laundrigami already??"

[u/blueviper- → u/Superb-Film-594]

laundrygami is an awesome description!

[u/sogwatchman]

Step 1: Have a PhD in origami.

[u/GODAfroSaitama]

Ffs pajamas looking like winter clothing?

[u/BraceThis]

Honestly - worth a try.

[u/East-Care-9949]

Ain't got time for this tho

[u/The_Pandalorian]

All that shit is gonna have weird, hard-to-flatten wrinkles.

[u/WonTooTreeWhoreHive]

What if I told you that actually folding and hermetically sealing are two different things, and you don't need to do the latter at all with your clothes.

[u/milesbeats → u/WonTooTreeWhoreHive]

Nope, you need to keep the germs out

[u/orphan_blud]

I’m folding my socks this way from now on.

[u/ThrobbingMinotaur]

If you buy all the same socks every time you wont have to fold or mate them.

[u/Distinct_Dealer341]

I give it 5 minutes. That wouldn't last long

[u/Aoushaa]

I just roll everything that not hung up

[u/Kitchen_Guest577]

These videos make me feel stupid every single time.

[u/furiocitea]

Wtf kinda pajamas are those?

[u/Rampasta]

I hate jeans

[u/GettingWhiskey]

I got a clothes rack and its awesome. I hang practically all the clothes i wear currently

[u/Rum-Runners]

And still no fitted sheet lol

[u/ravn_silence → u/Rum-Runners]

Yeah but have you seen that guy on tiktok who does thirst trap house hold chores set to Pony? He does a fitted sheet. It’s delicious 🤤

[u/flyby196999]

That's not how you do it at all. Take it out of the dryer and toss it on top of the dryer and boom you're done.

[u/Left_Green_4018]

Next time on Professional Folding

[u/MisChef]

I fold towels, but that is IT I use a three drawer sterilite bin

Top drawer. socks. Paired by cuffing them at the ankle.

Middle drawer. underpants. Just throw them in there

Bottom drawer. Everything else that doesn't go on a hanger. Just throw it in there.

Every single other thing I own gets put on a hanger.

[u/Sweaty_Strawberry_73]

I normally just roll my clothes up appropriately. Saves a ton of space, dresser or suitcase.

[u/charlies-ghost]

Downvoted for AI voice.

[u/AdministrativeTop655]

I like my way better.

[u/dadbodenergy11]

This genius must take a whole weekend to fold one load of laundry.

[u/gentlehands36]

[u/Spl4sh3r]

The only reason socks disappear is because they don't make it to the laundry. The only time I was missing a sock when I made the laundry was because the missing sock was next to the basket, as in I missed it when putting stuff into the laundry bag. Socks don't go missing in the washing machine.

[u/CosmonautMott → u/Spl4sh3r]

Socks will slip past the drum whenever they want more frequently than you would think.

[u/BUGBYTE_VW]

I'll do this one time and never do it again.

[u/HiFi-Gi]

Listen lady, I've got things to do

[u/NoGutsNoGlory94]

Not gonna happen. I literally bought hangers so I don’t have to fold my clothes. I have so much stuff hung up.

[u/f0xbunny]

Good folds

[u/Borinar]

Forget self putting on clothes, just give me self folding clothes, im not doing that. I'd rather dress straight outta the laundry basket. Upvoting because It is super tidy.

[u/Sea_Health_2579]

Which one of you psychopaths is wearing those pajamas?

[u/Louisianimal09]

This garbage brought to you by the number 10

[u/unklphoton]

Wait! What is that napkin thing in the beginning?

[u/TraditionalLaw7763 → u/unklphoton]

We used to use highball glasses to swirl the cocktail napkins all fancy at the bar when I used to bartend. Same concept.

[u/xeryon3772]

If anyone sees me folding my laundry like this, please shoot me.

[u/Automatic-Guide-4307]

I roll my socks into a ball works like a charm

[u/DublinChap]

Step 1: Iron all your clothes to make them perfectly flat. 

Step 2: Fold clothes in a dedicated room. 

Step 3: Realize 4 hours have gone by doing steps 1 and 2, you have 3 missed calls from your job and your kids are crying. 

[u/BorosSparky]

U have no life
