It's a forgotten skill. But someday, when shit hits the fan and we are living in a post-technological world, the people who know how to iron are going to have a better chance of surviving.
We do not inherit the world from our parents. We borrow it from our children.

There is no point in breathing in a 13.8 billion year old universe. There is however, a point in ironing your shirt if you are on a job interview or meeting someone for a date.

I don't iron my clothes. I wash my clothes every week or so.

And if you send your sheets to a communist to have them cleaned, they'll come back with laundry Marx.
