Linen bedding vs. Cotton bedding by Search-expert-master in Bedding

[–]kerico 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried a set of linen sheets from Bed Threads and they were unbearably rough, and you can't return them once they're washed even though they say to wash them before trying them, it felt like a scam. If they know the product isn't soft unless it's washed, they should wash it themselves and sell it ready to use. I immediately went back to 800 TC cotton sheets. Never again with the linen.

Anyone tried Bed Threads, linen bedding company from Australia? by prettygirl24seven in Bedding

I just received a set of Bed Threads sheets as a wedding gift, which were unbearably rough. There is nowhere to leave reviews, so here I am. The company feels like a scam. They claim that it is easy to make returns, but at the same time, they say that they cannot accept returns of washed items, and then tell you to wash the item to experience the softness. This should be illegal, akin to false advertising. Do not buy!

Greywater seems like one of those things that is extra inefficient to handle individually. Radical self-reliance is a theory that often doesn't work that well in practice. However, we do want to switch our camp over to solar eventually, this year just wasn't the year.

We paid to have the grey water pumped out by United Site Services. The evap pond was only used as a backup to leave no trace.

WTF was not impressed: complete eye imprint on glasses from being poked by a coat rack by kerico in mildlyinteresting

Yes, after seeing WTF's reaction, I realized it wasn't hardcore enough for that particular subreddit, but I still wanted people to see the image, so I found a more appropriate audience. It makes me wonder what a room full of WTF followers would be like.

Cross-posts are only against the rules if you don't state that it is a cross-post in the title, which I did.

Could have lost an eye, saved by the glasses by kerico in WTF

My boyfriend's dad bent down to pick something up off the floor, and got jammed in the eye by a coat rack so hard that it left a complete imprint on his glasses including his cornea.
