Ironing
I never thought I’d ever find myself saying this but I hate my ironing board. And not just because I detest ironing (a task that, due to my old wardrobe, was something I have been mercifully spared for most of my life), no, I hate it because it sucketh beyond belief. It’s badly constructed, the cover rips if you look at it the wrong way and the whole thing goes ‘bang’ as it expands and contracts when I use the steam on my uber iron. I think I shall be looking on the internet web for an uber board to go with my uber iron (assuming such a thing exists). Does anyone know who makes the best ironing boards? 
I hate my ironing board too .. but for different reasons! lol
I took it for granted that every sane person (except, perhaps, for my ex g/f’s mother who seemed to enjoy ironing and could iron a double duvet cover into a neat square without ever seeming to have more than a tiny fraction of it out at any one time) hates ironing and by extension thier ironing board.
What I want to know is WHY anyone irons duvet covers? Or, far worse… underwear? I just don’t agree with ironing at all and hold firmly to the belief that creases fall out as you wear clothes. Join the anti-ironing revolution and enjoy a slightly wrinklier but much more interesting life!
She used to iron socks too - she liked ironing
I can’t life an ironing free life any more, I have linen shirts that crease by looking at them.
Yeah - now my strategy would simply be to wear different shirts
But we need to wear colour to attract the laydeez
Lol, yes, you’re thoroughly stuck in the ironing-think trap. The key is to allow your mind to work in a less….flat way
This revolution evidently has a long way to go…
Oh - and I despair at the ironing of socks.
Well I only iron shirts, and then only the new ones (the black ones remain unironed). I do pair and fold my socks though
I can assure you that if you told a laydee that you had ironed your perfectly ironed shirt yourself, you would have her and many others falling at your feet!
Even if you were lying and had the nice people at the cleaners do it?
I toyed with the idea of getting the nice people at the cleaners to do it (or more to the point, getting the nice cleaners who come to my house to do it) but I’m not sure how often they do it, or if I’d need to be about for them to pick up and return. Anyway, it’s all hassle and more expense. If it gets too much I’ll inquire with them as to how it works.
I’m hoping that one day soon fashion will catch up with me and everyone will be envious of the special creases I put in my shirts. I blame the crapness of my ironing board as well. Why is it that the maximum height for those things is suitable only for people under five feet in height? Are they designed by hard up osteopaths trying to drum up more work?
