Gee, how can I tell if my iron is hot? I know! I'll iron my naked fingertips to check! What could possibly go wrong?

[suchakiller.livejournal.com]

haha, a friend of mine was going to straighten her hair once.
she plugged in the flat iron.
and while she waited for it to get warm enough she had the brilliant idea to squeeze her thigh fat....it did not take long til she found out that the flat iron gets pretty damn hot pretty damn fast.

You mean while the iron was on her hair? She burnt her hair?

[suchakiller.livejournal.com]

no.you plug the iron in. wait for it to get warm enough and the straighten your hair. right?
and while waiting for it to get warm enough she started squeezing her thighs with it.
and it got pretty damn hot faster that she thought it would(she probably thought it'd gradually get warm and warmer and warmer). so what she burnt was her thigh.

oh and i mean the same as hair straightner when i say flat iron.

That's what I was thinking, not a smart idea haha

Who irons their finest lingerie?

[itskelp.livejournal.com]

yeah this is what bothered me more than the burnt finger

[meleth.livejournal.com]

There are so many things wrong with the whole idea.

Someone who obviously would not want it messed up in any way.

"No, honey. I would, but I'm wearing my freshly ironed finest lingerie and I don't want it getting messy with icky bodily fluids."

I can imagine Madeline Kahn's character in Young Frankenstein ironing her lingerie and saying something like that.

[cremepuff.livejournal.com]

YES.

It sounds like a hastily thought up excuse for not doing something.

"Hey, wanna go to the dance with me tonight?"

"Um...I can't. I have to..uh...iron my bra"

If it's silk, and you've washed it, it dries wrinkled. Ditto rayon. Ironing it with a warm iron (not hot) returns it to wearable condition instead of what looks like a crumpled ball of fabric. They're talking about slips and tap pants - not a bra or girdle.

[meleth.livejournal.com]

No, I know that. But that's what a hanger in a steam-filled bathroom is for, not a large hunk of heated metal.

Note the young woman irons the pretty lingerie while the old woman gets stuck with the "heavy, damp linens." Stay young, ladies!

A radically simplified graphic version of the act in this art is what you'd see today as a "Don't do this!" consumer warning with the appliance.

However..full disclosure/confession..with an iron in my one (adult) hand and something else occupying the other, I once tested the iron's warmth ON THE SIDE OF MY FACE! ..Leaving a red mark there -- The Sign of the Imbecile -- in the triangle shape of the iron's front end. Thank you, thank you...yes, thank you. Still waiting to hear about that genius grant.

I'm imagining the guy from MAD in your icon doing this now.

BAHAHAHA.

[herbadness.livejournal.com]

I gotta say, I laughed soooo hard! "The Sign of the Imbecile"! AAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA!!!!!!!

[singeaddams.livejournal.com]

I absolutely love the design of that thing. I don't iron but I want one!
