Comment on Ironing

Millennials.

I’m one, and the SO is a Zillennial; neither of us own irons. Just don’t see the point. Dryers are fairly effective wrinkle removers, and any remaining creases will eventually come out simply by wearing the clothing.

I iron for the creases!! I understand why many people wouldn’t have use for them but I like having crisp collars on button downs and polos and a slight crease to certain khakis

  By “creases” I meant wrinkles. I have this weird quirk where I don’t like reusing a word too many times in a paragraph, so I’ll try to find a synonym.

    Did you even notice how many times you said ‘I’?

RIP anything made of linen.

  We don’t own anything made out of linen, lol
  
  Regardless, delicates get air dried. I live in a “right to dry” state (i.e. it’s illegal to ban clotheslines here), but even if I didn’t, you can always hang them over the shower rod.
