My mum would spend hours ironing clothes when I was a kid. I dont think I’ve ever seen an ironing board at any of my friends houses. A whole generation just said “fuck ironing” and we did. Good work everyone.
@robb My fave thing about Gen X.
@theaardvark @robb yeah, I was going to say I think this was a Gen X thing. I think we were also the first generation to start using duvets covers and not bothering with top sheets. And we realized that no one actually needs dryer sheets or boxes of Kleenex all around their house.
@saren @theaardvark @robb The drier sheets and kleenexes don't need to be everywhere, but for those of us with pets & allergies, they are still far more necessary than an iron or a top sheet.
