It was covered by another bedsheet, but because the cover folded in itself that was much harder to untangle and I had to turn a drier again. It took more time to post it here though ;)

Yeah, our dryer lines to do that too. That’s probably the Intelligence the marketing spoke of.
I hate this so much. I’ve read that putting fitted sheets into garment bags makes them less likely to tangle
I stopped using fitted sheets. I hate this and folding them too. Instead I use the next size bigger top sheet for a bottom sheet.
That sounds even more annoying because it has to constantly get out of position and need fixing.
It tucks enough fabric underneath that it stays all week using “hospital corners”.
I saw someone comment using suspenders under the bed with regular sheets. Don’t remember what the parent post was but somehow it came up.
Yeah, you can get small elastic bands with clips on them just for this purpose.
A deep and painful metaphor
I’ve had some luck folding things into quarters before washing/drying. It works 4/5 of the time, and is only slightly less miserable than the damp fabric sphere
the damp fabric sphere
I’m always amused at how seemingly universal a lot of our minor troubles in life are. Comisseration in shared agony. lol
We call it the “butthole of doom” when the sheets tangle into a single point.
The laundry singularity.
Tie them into a loose knot to stop this from happening. Same for fitted sheets. Not too tight or they won’t dry but it works if you get it right.
