I don't iron.

Well.. Maybe twice a year. For Christmas an May 17th.

I used to iron all the time. Now if it wrinkles, it goes to the cleaners!!
Laundry in my house is like bunnies. If you leave ANYTHING in the basket, it'll multiply!
 
I go to Sears and get them monster big five gallon
buckets of powder detergent (cheap as f*ck)

Yeah many years ago I complained how the Beloved
was ironing my dress shirts. Yep she ain't ironed a damn
thing since. I’ve found if all things that need ironing
are always hung up on hangers
(even after being worn prior to washing)
the ironing is manageable.

She does her washing and I do mine and
when the kid visits he always brings his dirty laundry
and does it for himself.
 
Yeah, I used to make my ex wash his own t-shirts... he insisted on buying tye-dyed, handwash only ones and I had quite enough washing to do without them too... and he did his own ironing. I just couldn't do it right... ex-military types an all... :lol:
 
I am extremely picky about what I wash in what load and what can and can not go in the dryer...All that picky crap got one thing...ME doing the laundry. Serves me right

Ditto. Too paranoid that the apartment will burn down if I leave it on.
I don't do ironing either. Most of my clothes are iron-free anyways, and those that do need ironing, I can usually get the BF to do, cos he does a lot more ironing than me. :D

I hate to iron. before I do I'll hang the piece in the shower with me and let it steamout...sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
into the dryer with a damp teatowel always works.
 
If road dust isn't a problem, 40mph with a pair of slacks closed in the tailgate will snap the wrinkles out. But frayed hems will result from too-frequent use.
 
I can't iron either so don't feel bad.

Thoough with wool it is so easy to get wrinkles out. Take a nice long hot shower and let the room steam up. Hang the wool item in there and presto no more wrinkles YAY!

TIP: it may me wrinkle free but no odor free.

College has tought me to also keep a bottle of febreeze handy at all times!
 
Crinkle cotton and easy-iron t-shirts rock! :D

... and nobody irons jeans or sweatpants.

Most of my clothes are cotton based cos of my eczema... wool is a nightmare.
 
Hella yeah both my parents were former military
Mom used to line dry and iron the bed sheets and pillow cases!

Mmmmmmmm...
