Of course. I would agree that is way more important than
folding laundry.

BTDT, I hear you 100%. I found that working a full time job really
interfered with my lifestyle.

This isn't a I'm better because I fold sheets thing. I was
defending that it doesn't take very long at all and it's not a
waste of time when you don't like wadded up sheets shoved in the
closet.

Safe to say everyone spends time/money/effort on things that others
would consider a waste of time.
