My wife R A T F L H A O
One on my domestic duties is to make the bed, this morning when I was changing the sheets, she spotted me with the tape measure out measuring the amount of sheet overhang each side (15.5 inches) what relay finished her off was when I got the bevel gauge out (it had been pre set to 45 deg with the digital angel thinghyI have) to get the angle of the hospital tuck at the end of the bed spot on.
She thinks that I go overboard, but I reckon that a job needs to be done right am I wrong?Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I´m not so sure about the universe.

Phil, you either have to get out to the shed more often OR get HER to make the bed.
I try and do new things twice.. the first time to see if I can do it.. the second time to see if I like it

Sounds perfectly fine to me, what's her problem?
I hope you put a tension gauge on it, nothing worse than a saggy spot.

I know you believe you understand what you think I wrote, but I'm not sure you realize that what you just read is not what I meant.

Phil, get a permanent textile marker and put dotted lines in appropiate places so you don't have to mess around with the tape measure everytime.

We also have two teddy bears on the bed one a girl and the other a boy, when I make the bed I arrange these bears in what could be loosely described as a risqué pose. Well teddy bears apparently are not supposed to get up to naughty behaviour, both the bears and me get into trouble.

Right, you've stepped over the line this time and made everyone wince. Teddy bears on the bed? Teddy bears in the house?
Men are walking away from their puters in droves, shaking their heads.
