Behind the Magic
[edit]- Carefully unwrap washcloth
- Carefully drop washcloth in water
- The washcloth will unfold on its own, as bidden by the dark powers of Satan.*
- The washcloth will absorb the water, which will be handy while you are being burned at the stake for tampering with the dark arts of linen expansion.
- *Alternate Step 3: Wait twenty minutes while nothin' freakin' happens, then unfold your lousy $4 washcloth by hand. Crying is optional.
