God damn it all to hell!


Explanation:
I don't believe a literal translation works best here. What the original phrase is trying to communicate is how enraged the speaker is, so I would suggest "God damn it all to hell!" as a possible equivalent in feeling and intent.

stupid motherfucking sheets / fucking sheets


Explanation:

I think including the sheets is important, no matter how frustrated you can be. In fact, the whole point is blaming them! Haha!

Happy Holidays!
