Do you fold all your clothes and put them in drawers or hang them all up in the closet? Why?

I do that because I live with two other people (only one other when college is in session and our son's away) and it's the best way to keep the laundry cycle moving and the house running in organized fashion.
I'm a natural procrastinator and slob, however. If I were living here alone, left to my own devices and didn't have others who depended on our system, I'd let unfolded laundry pile up for weeks. I'd store most of my wearable clothes in the dryer and simply turn it on to iron them before I put them on. I'd throw dirty laundry directly into the washer tub instead of into a laundry basket and drape the still-clean-enough-to-rewear items on chairs or possibly on hangers (but not neatly). I'd never fold or hang another thing until the end of my time came. . . . Wouldn't it be loverly? I'd be in hawg heaven!

Shirts and T shirts get ironed and hung up in wardrobes, sweatshirts and jumpers folded in drawers, socks and pants thrown in drawers, I like to be organized if possible, tricky when working up to 50 hrs a week though, however hubby is good at ironing and housework and helps a lot, he tends to be a bit more obsessive when it comes to chores being done.

My t-shirts,sweaters/hoodies, and pants are all hung up. Why? Because truthfully, I am not that good of folder, and I find they get creases and really wrinkly sitting in a drawer. Hanging up I can also see exactly what shirts they are without unfolding and me, being lazy, not wanting to fold them back up. :D
My socks, underwear and sweatpants, I fold up and put in drawers.

I mostly fold all of my clothes immediatly after they come out of the dryer...shake em out real hard to get any wrinkles out..button the buttons and fold really nice..socks, t shirts and underwear I roll.

What about socks? I usually throw the lot in one basket and find matches as needed.

I too fold up everything as it comes out of the dryer.. I take hangers with me when i go to the laundry room to do it right away otherwise I know it wont be done.. I have a bit of OCD about stuff especially towels and sheets being folded identically so they stack up evenly.. all corners must match.. I know its stupid, but it will otherwise drive me crazy.. I dont do many hangers since I basically live out of an overnight bag all the time.. and whatever is in my drawers doesnt get used often.. a wash, dry, fold, and back in the bag it goes.. its gettin old quick tho..

I used to like folding them when they come out of the dryer. When I live with a girl, I let her dictate how I take care of the clothes.

I like my socks to be paired-up, not rolled up inside-out, but, just together.

See, that's the thing. She might do it, and, then leave them in garbage bags.

I have a system. Undershirts and just like, outside shitty t-shirts go into drawers, along with socks, boxers and shorts. Any nice shirt, or something id wear out like to the mall or what have you, along with pants and hoody's all get hung up.
In short, Nice shit gets hung up, not nice shit gets folded and tossed into the drawers.

I usually pick them out of the hamper and give it a sniff test, if it's wrinkled I'll throw a semi wet towel on it for a few minutes to slightly dampen it, sort of like a ghetto way of ironing, spray on some cologne and I'm good to go :)
But for clean clothes I hang up my shirts, except my under shirts for work, sometimes I fold them, usually I don't, they are just under shirts. Fold my pants, throw my socks and underroos in a drawer.
