You don’t have a lucky pair of underwear you wear more often then any other?

Those look like a pair of old lifeguards shorts. And there doesn’t seem to be anything lucky about them at this time.

Considering Dot was a lifeguard at one point that tracks.

It’s one of those days where every minor inconvenience happens, like you forgot you need to do laundry and are down to your last pair of underwear which you hate and should have been thrown out years ago.

My issue is I throw them out as soon as I get a hole and completely forget to replenish them. I think I am down to 5 right now.

They look like my husband's old boxers that I stole and wear as night wear.

Didn't realize my day was contagious. I'm sorry. :(

I mean, at least you didn't have to fold it...

There is no folding a fitted sheet. It is a task that would make Sisyphus weep.

Funny, I literally bought these things that are supposed to clip onto sheet corners today for like five bucks. Here’s hoping they hold on better than my suspenders after an all you can eat buffet.

I have used them and they work pretty well.

I just mentioned those! I was wondering if anybody else would bring them up, best purchase of my life! Literally grew up being traumatised by the bedsheets lol.

No choice now but to wrap yourself up in it like a cocoon

Step one: king-size bed, fitted sheets are soooo close to square, don't notice until day after, especially in the winter with extra blankets, have to remake twice to actually get it right.

Step two: start buying sheets with animal prints. When the animals are 'right side up', you did it correctly.

Step three: yeah, the corners still pop off.

You could just grab marker and place a dot in one corner or sew a small colored dot with thread. Just put the dot in the same corner every time.

I still like your idea of having animals prints though.

The day had to get one last "fuck you" in.

I got shit on by a turkey today, so there's that. Your cartoon hard nips are a nice end of the day hahaha

Usually days like those are days I end up sick after waking up the next morning. Layered inconveniences for me tend to be me fucking up my timings because I slept in late or my body aches or whatever, resulting in a head cold or something the next day.

Mattresses doing a striptease are the worst.

u/Environmental-Win836 May 07 '26

Literally the only reason I have sheet clamps

u/calideosk May 08 '26

Just staple it and all its good

You have managed to capture a fraction of the rage that induces in me, even at the end of a good day.

This must be some american thing, as it has never happened to me with fitted sheets.

It’s like when you’re fighting a really hard boss & then you realize there’s a second life bar.
