Well… Earl wasn’t lying.

Typical..

WHATAGUY

OR

What? A guy.

There are too many cheap bathroom humor comments to be made. Fortunately, I read the strip before they arrived.

Yeah. Spouse generally leaves the clean sheets on the bed in that format. AND complains if I put them back on, because I’m supposed  to fold them and use the ones that I folded 3 or 4 weeks ago instead. She’s not a big fan of efficiency… at least in that regard… As far as I can see, each set of sheets will wear out after (however many) nights of use, and it really matters not a whit whether those nights are consecutive or in sets of 7, some weeks apart.

I don’t think my Grandpa even knows where the dryer is.

I hate fitted sheets too, Earl!

Earl, did your mother always make your bed when growing up before courted and married Opal?

Not all surprises are good.

Earl, is the laziest husband. I wonder why Opal stays with him. I would have dumped him years ago.

Opal: “Thank you, Earl. … And since we’re both here, we can make the bed together.”

Nice try Earl …

Hey…….. just be happy he did SOMETHING..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eww. Don’t like that shade of green.

When my other half “helps” to make the bed he seems to be terrified that he’s going to rip a sheet. You’ve got to pull that fabric tight or it’s just full of wrinkles.

OMG! EARL! You’re so L. A. M. E. !

It’s so much easier with two people to make a bed anyway. You sleep in it, you help make it up :)

Had Mr help me with guest room bed the other day…it was as if he had never seen a fitted sheet before. He got a few steps in walking to the back of our home ;-)

HAHA! Made me laugh. Mine are out on the line drying.

I learned how to put on a fitted sheet when I was 10. It took 3 bruises and a few stitches, but I did get it on. The second time was good enough to avoid corporal punishment.

LOL!

Husband was on his own for a few days. When I returned, the kitchen floor was spotless. He finally admitted that he’d tried to run the dishwasher and had used regular dish detergent in it. Said there was about 6 inches of suds all over the kitchen floor. And the gasket around the dishwasher opening was always loose after that. Unfortunately the kitchen floor has never been that clean again.

I always fold our fitted sheets – just never the same way twice!

Can’t believe they’re still together. I help my wife with the sheets.

Such a good husband!XD

Awesome job, Earl!

I take them right out of the dryer and put them on the beds. The last few years, we put them on together because our mattress is too heavy for me to pick up and tuck the corners. If I don’t pay attention, my husband goes ahead and puts them on alone. This has been a perk of aging.

We have summer sheets and winter sheets.

Well, Earl to bad you won’t be sleeping on them tonight.

I think Earl took them off the bed and put them straight in the dryer ( they didn’t look dirty!).

Typical male done job- – they have no finesse.

Earl, that’d ONLY work if you were single.
