Well now it's all dirty
I remember this "theorem"(?) about how is impossible to fold a paper sheet more that 6 times and this lady glt herself a gigantic thin sheet and folded it like 8 times. OP, fold that and told us how many folds you get.
Mythbusters debunked this, although they used a football field sized sheet and forklifts, but they were able to fold it 11 times. The myth they tested was 7 times being impossible.
Another myth is that because the thickness doubles on every fold that it would reach the moon before you could fold it .. X times.
I'm bored, so I figured it out. A thin piece of office paper (0.05 mm) would need to folded 43 times to reach the moon.
The world record is 12.
I thought it was 7?
Let me help you out with the math here, its pretty difficult. Basically, "impossible to do more than 6" and "7 is impossible" actually mean the same thing! It's crazy how numbers work 😅😅
My (incorrect) memory was that you couldn't fold it more than 7 times.
Go put on some deodorant.
Now you just need a $10k projector and a 4:3 movie
So... the orgy is at your house this weekend? Cool!
Is it BYOL? (bring your own lube)
Amateur. My gf will still steal the sheet.
Wait, hol up
I don't think your math is right. That's 5x length and 4x width, not 20x length and width. If I was suddenly 20x bigger without changing my proportions, I doubt that would even be a facecloth to me.
If it was 20x the length and 20x the width, it'd be 400x the size.....
If your weight increased to 20x your current weight, without changing proportions, you would be about 2.7x your current height, width, and depth.
...just like OP's mum.
You're overthinking. If you take 20 things and combine them, it's 20 times the size of one of them.
