[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Nothing looks better after *I* iron it. That's why god made dry cleaners and clothes that look okay if rescued quickly from the dryer.
So glad you aren't posting from Oz, Sail. I once watched a tornado touch down about three blocks away from where I was standing next to my stalled car waiting for a wrecker. It seemed strangely not related to me, and I had nowhere to run anyway. It did help me understand a little the people who are videoing the tornado while saying, "Look at that."
I am horribly ashamed to admit (and pretty damn mystified to boot) that there was something on my ironing board cover that may have been ::cringes:: cat urine. (Srsly, how in the fucking fuck?) Anyway, I used a towel for a cover instead and now have one pair of pants and two shirts all ironed. The effort has been made.
Now to prep interview questions (how we hatesss them, preciousss).

Oh, this. I don't even know where my iron is. If something is wrinkled and I care, I toss it in the dryer for ten minutes with a damp washcloth. Good enough.
The Woolite wrinkle release spray is a godsend for quick fixes, too.
I've owned that iron for nine years and this is the first time I used it. I watched some Real Simple youtube videos first. Sadly, I don't own a dryer, and I've never found the "hang it in the bathroom while you shower" method to be very useful.
I drive my daughter nuts. She'll call to say she's been injured/in an accident and she gets all bent because I don't sob all over her. Hey, she could call, she was coherent, therefore not dead or dying. I save the wailing and rending for death.
I love Sail so much.
Mutual, I'm sure.

Maybe if you have a really small bathroom and take REALLY hot showers.
Given that my bathroom has 14' ceilings? I'm thinking NSM.
I just typed out answers to a bunch of those hated questions and you know what? They are so much easier to answer than they used to be! Amazing what feeling competent and having self-esteen can do for ya.
Once, I put a garment in the dryer with a wet towel. I'm not sure whether it made a difference or not in terms of wrinkles.
I did turn the dryer on, just in case you were all wondering.
