You and Your Sheets

do you mean the top sheet or the fitted sheet? i only use a fitted sheet and a duvet cover, no top sheet.

I very much prefer tucked, but the last set of full sheets I bought are TOO NARROW to tuck both sides under and still get in them. I realize this is partly b/c they were a bargain and not a luxury purchase, so the makers are saving $$ on that extra 6-10" of fabric, but am still a little put off.

no duvet, no umm...

IIRC mookie is an untucker, leading to problems with wifey, who is a tucker.

Mr. Que and I have the same problem.

I always need to have one leg sticking out from the sheets.

O NO YOU DIDNT GIRLFRIEND

(okay since i am an untucker and it has now been revaled in PUBLIC, i guess the solution is to remake the bed every morning ;___;)

We have fitted sheet on the bottom and tucked in top sheet under the duvet. It is not unknown for the mister, who is an untucker, to lie on top of the sheet while I lie under it.

Oooh I hate it when they do that, Ailsa. The sheet is on there specifically so one doesn't get the comforter/duvet dirty, STOP TOUCHING IT.

One tuck, one no-tuck. One tuck, one no-tuck

Laurel OTM. No top sheet = eww. We have good quality cotton sheets so it's not like lying in icky bad sheeets or anything.

Also then there is a sheet in the way of your snuggling. I wish my bedpartner(s) would just lie still and keep the covers neat.

it's not gross if you use a duvet cover that can be taken off and washed.

If yr committed to washing yr duvet cover all the time, hey no prob, you don't need a top sheet anyway! xp right. Mine comes off but it's a pain, so I treat it as a comforter and do not touch.

this is exactly wrong. we go half and half, and entropy always eventually fucks my tuck. then my feet stick out and get cold. also i can't have a footboard cause i'm too tall.

mrs mookie once drunkenly fell out of a hotel bed as she was trying to arise and blamed it on the tuck--'my feet got trapped!' whatever, mrs mookie.

Do you mean tucking at the bottom? I thought everyone did this. Otherwise it's drafty, and monsters can bite your toes.

I CAN'T STAND tucked sheets, makes me feel like I'm in a goddamned envelope of a straightjacket. I need to kick wildly in my sleep, if the sheets are tucked I srsly have weird dreams about my legs. I cocoon myself in the sheet/blanket and never make my bed. There is absolutely no point.

xpost - not if you wrap your toes in the sheets

i am pro-mummification

I stopped giving a shit

i'm with belllabs on the the fitted + duvet cover with duvet in it. otherwise everything is too tangled b/c i can't deal with tucking except at the v bottom

my sheet scene right now is a mess
which i am going to solve with capitalism

Fitted sheet with no top sheet. I can't stand tucked sheets. My feet need to be sticking out otherwise I feel trapped. If I stay somewhere where the sheets are tucked in the first thing I do is untuck them.

i'm with enbb. and if i didn't have a fitted bottom sheet it would never be tucked in cuz i NEVER make my bed.

Tucking is important. Else, cold feet. And cold feet = awake and uncomfy. Uncomfy = no fucking. Thus, tucking != fucking.

Probably my opinion is shaped by the fact that I live in San Francisco, where it's cold 13 months of the year.

No! Cold feet = love. Also, tucking is too confining for fucking.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Tucked at teh end. The rest is untucked. Would make me feel extremely confined.

tucked. i like feeling like i'm in a cocoon.

I tuck them in when I make the bed in the morning. Then once I get in bed for the night, I untuck the sheet by pulling at it with my feet so they can hang out in the breeze. I have a physiological condition that I refer to as "hot foot". Having them covered makes me extremely uncomfortable.

This is on another thread somewhere - I don't buy fitted sheets, only king-size flat sheets (for a queen sized bed). The bottom sheet gets stretched flat and has hospital corners all around the mattress, then the top sheet/flannel sheet blanket/duvet cover (w/duvet in there once it's really cold) gets laid on and pulled down between the footboard and the mattress, but not tucked. Mr. Jaq has magical powers of crumpling up and de-tucking the bottom sheet that manifest every two or three nights, so I only straighten everything out before we go to sleep. I can't sleep on wrinkled up sheets, myself. And I like to be able to move my feet around at will.

shit better be tucked or i ain't sleepin over bitch

untucked!! let me be free.
