If you can find me a better way to acquire a 20x Queen sheet I’m all ears.

I call it a queens harem sheet.

But because of this one life hack, it’s just one that’s all dirty.

If they weren’t so thoughtfully put together as such, then they’d all be dirty.

People still wondering just what the fuck it’s for hate this one hack.

I remember this “theorem”(?) about how is impossible to fold a paper sheet more that 6 times and this lady glt herself a gigantic thin sheet and folded it like 8 times. OP, fold that and told us how many folds you get.

Mythbusters debunked this, although they used a football field sized sheet and forklifts, but they were able to fold it 11 times. The myth they tested was 7 times being impossible.

Another myth is that because the thickness doubles on every fold that it would reach the moon before you could fold it … X times.

I’m bored, so I figured it out. A thin piece of office paper (0.05 mm) would need to folded 43 times to reach the moon.

The world record is 12.

Let me help you out with the math here, its pretty difficult. Basically, “impossible to do more than 6” and “7 is impossible” actually mean the same thing! It’s crazy how numbers work 😅😅

My (incorrect) memory was that you couldn’t fold it more than 7 times.

Go put on some deodorant.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it’s too interesting, it doesn’t belong. If it’s not interesting, it doesn’t belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh… what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don’t spam.
