The shiznit of shirt folding techniques

Post by Spyder »

Ok, for all those that suck as much as I do at folding shirts pay attention.

It's amazing! It's like using Kung Foo on your shirts!

Or you could hang them on a coat hanger like I do.

Ironing to students is just another 7-letter word.

Wow, that works great. Now I'm off to Japan to find the Shirt-master and practice my skill. I wonder how many people I'll be able to kill with that technique.

Good luck. Personally, I'd look in China.

Just tried it twice and damn that was quick.~Jason :!:
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

I think I just found one of the greatest tools ever for my profession. Seriously, my civilian job is setting clothes in a JCPenney (I'm the dock master/stock supervisor) and this technique fuckin' kicks all ass. Damn I almost want to go back to work just to try it out for a full day's work to see how much easier folding is.

My mom taught us that trick when she started making me & my sis fold our own laundry when we were kids. My dad & my kid brother on the other hand have yet to adopt this technique and still insist on doing things the hard way.

Just tried it out, it works pretty well. I'd say it's the fastest method I know, but it doesn't yield the cleanest fold. For my money, I go with the FlipFold. Sure, you have to give a Jackson for it, and it doesn't work quite as fast as the kung-fu method, but it gives you a perfect fold, every time. Seriously.
And you may ask yourself, 'Where does that highway go to?'

Perhaps I should try that. It would look better than having all of my shirts on a pile on the floor.

I'd go with Taiwan. The subtitles are traditional Chinese, not simplified, and the station is also a Taiwanese one...
