Ever since I learned to fold fitted sheets, I still get a great sense of joy when I manage to get one to line up pretty well.
It's not even that hard, but it feels like sorcery until you know the trick.

@mayintoronto I said self-taught, but I learned from a book. You know, printed on paper.

@mayintoronto yeah, so they used to print out a whole bunch of stuff on a topic to small pieces of paper (called pages) and then stick them together on one side so you could turn the pages. Imagine if like a web page was printed on paper.

I remember my old library had an old fashioned cross reference. Think card catalogue cards, but with topics instead of authors. It was the original "going down a Wikipedia rabbit hole".
