Nigel, this is actually starting to get to me.

The cure to everything, of course, is more legislation because we're too fucking lazy and instant grat-oriented to do silly shit like research the place we're staying or boycott an establishment for things like price gouging and unsanitary practices.

I'm starting to realize that you really can't fault the government for these regualtions because, well, people really aren't doing anything about it themselves.

If people really are too stupid not to shit where they eat, then this sort of falls into "promote the general welfare", y'know?

If you google the story, bedbugs have nothing to do with the excuse for the legislation.

The congressman responsible stated that his mother was a maid in a hotel, and using the double sheet method made her back hurt.

When asked to verify his story, he told the reporters to shit in their hats.

It's going to fuck up people's backs regardless.  You're bending over and ripping off sheets no matter what.

Oh, I know.

[AFK]

Yes, I hope so.  I hope he comes back to make MOAR PUNS.

Sorry, not really feeling those these days.  Not to worry though, others seem to have done just fine picking up the mantle. 

[Freeky]

  Ah, well.

In addition, now there are two kinds of sheets to keep track of and pair up. Sounds like it would make the maids' jobs harder, not easier.

yea, that sprang to mind right after i said something about it being more efficient having fitted sheets.
im not sure whether you come out ahead having to track two types of sheets while avoiding the necessity of fitting flat sheets to a mattress, or having just one type of sheet while avoiding that additional step...
not having dealt with the latter, i can only assume that the fitted sheets are better, otherwise they would not have caught on, no?
which do you use?

I use fitted sheets for the simple reason that they're what they have when you buy a sheet set at the store. But they're more of a pain in the ass to take off and put on, IMO, and they're always annoyingly popping off at one corner or another. I should switch to flat.

the manufacturers do not anticipate the level of athleticism that you bring to the bed, Nigel...
they make clips that affix the sheet to the mattress for people like you.

Sheets?

I've accidentally bed frames. STUPID SHODY CRAFTSMANSHIP!!!!!!

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I don't even know what you're talking about.

Nigel, celibate since March.

[East Coast Hustle]

I would literally die.
