Oh wait, I forgot to mention. I’m selling my ironing board at a yard sale this weekend because I have resolved to only date men who have this skill. Look! I am financially savvy AND delegating…………..

Ramit,
I don’t think this will make you any money, however, it will CERTAINLY get you dates.
I remember the first time I was invited to an former beau’s house, he gave me the tour and I poked my head in his walk in closet. (it looked similar to the photos above)
I was WAYYYYYY impressed and asked him where he had his dry cleaning done. He said ‘dry cleaning? I don’t dry clean anything. I IRON them’. I really didn’t believe him but the punch line never came.
As I picked myself off the floor, realizing he was serious, I then fell madly and totally in love.
It’s a HUGE aphrodisiac to women – a man who can iron like a champ?
Oh la la la la ——— grin.

Exception #2 is false. I requested a live demonstration of your skills. I believe I may have been your first non-paying customer. However, as your first non-paying costumer, I feel i must inform the world that your style, while effective, is freakishly manic. You iron a shirt in maybe 15 seconds. It takes me 2 minutes, minimum. I don’t know your secrets, but I think it’s a magic trick.

I think an ironing websiteis a great idea. I don’t know how to iron a shirt or pants with starch without creating little white flakes. Very annoying – I have settled for using a spray bottle of water.

I was given this site by my son and needless to say that you are extremely interesting. You just about cover the world withyour insight.

About the ironing, I too have an obsession for ironing and I too love to have my shirts with the crease very sharp, and heavily starched. I learned the art and I say art because ironing is an art, my sister as a youngster would iron our clothes and when I got them they were not to my satisfaction, so what happened? my sister would thrown them at me after I complaint and was told to do them myself.
Well I’m now 58 and since the age of 12 I have been ironing all my clothes and will not allow anyone else do them for me.

So my friend I think I have met someone who enjoys ironing as much as I do. So if you have information regarding ironing so ahead and put it down. Never too old to learn different techniques.

Pretty funny post. I personally hate ironing and have made it a personal goal never to have to iron again. In a comic book, would I be your nemesis?

Take up Extreme Ironing. It's the latest danger sport that combines the thrills of an extreme outdoor activity with the satisfaction of a well pressed shirt. http://www.extremeironing.com/

A guide to packing a suitcase so that your clothes don’t come out looking like a wadded up mess would also be great. Amazing how few people really pack well, or efficiently. Most people overpack and take the wrong stuff with them. A smart packer can be gone for weeks at a time with hand luggage only (I do it all the time).
