Wrinkled with little squares? geordi-no

Smooth, flowing, luscious, warm from the iron? geordi-yes

Why tf do some of you not own irons you can get one from a thrift store for like $5 and you should have one if you ever wear clothes nice enough to have buttons on them

Counterpoint, most wrinkles work themselves out after a couple hours of wear.

you should have one if you ever wear clothes nice enough to have buttons on them.

Most clothes, even dress clothes, are now wrinkle-free and some shouldn't be ironed at all. This is especially common for women's clothes. I genuinely do not own a single article of clothing that would ever make sense to iron.

Really? Most of my dress shirts say wrinkle free but only one of them actually doesn’t need to be ironed and that one looks like a normal dress shirt but feels like athletic wear

Often I don’t have to iron a whole shirt, but it’s useful to fix a collar

I do not have a single article of clothing with a collar that could be viably ironed.

Okay you get a pass

The rest of you though hexbear-retro disgost

Yeah ironing your garments is one of thos e things that doesn't seem like a big deal, but then you do it and you just look so much more slick.
