A Pressing Issue

Why oh why did someone have to go and invent the damn iron?? The whole world must have been going around rather happily with rumpled and crumpled clothing until some restless smartass came up with the bright idea that pressed clothes would look better and went and invented the iron. The thing is a pain I say because now everyone expects you to wear ironed clothes to work... among other places. It takes time and energy, it uses insane amounts of electricity, and to top it off, people in hotel laundries end up using rusty irons and leaving ugly orange stains on your favourite shirt. What's wrong with heavily creased clothes I ask you... in four years at college I never ironed a single item of clothing except before a presentation because then you're 'expected' to look 'smart and well-dressed'. Now I have to iron clothes everyday for work... anyone know who invented the iron? I'm up for resurrecting the man/woman and torturing her/him to death.
