keithd Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 Dont they work on a thermostat like central heating that doesnt have an on off switch?
Bearsy Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 cos you is sposed to put it away when you is finished! They is trying to discourage students and unemployeds from having an ironing board permanently set up in their front rooms!
The Cat Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 A mate of mine once tried to cook a frozen lasagne on an iron because someone else was using the oven.

pap Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 Because women are rubbish when it comes to technology. Ms pap is extremely inconsistent when it comes to technology, displaying great feats of dextrous prowess in some areas and complete and utter failure in others. For example, she has no problem building PCs and she was even good enough to chip my XBox. Most women do not have the know-how to do it. And yet, she cannot play any computer game which involves looking and moving at the same time ( so no modern FPSs ) and turns white with fear at the prospect of plugging a console into a TV. The wiring on the surround sound system is the stuff of nightmares for her. Weird.
badgerx16 Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 What is an iron? I think there are some nightclubs you would best avoid.
ecuk268 Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 On a domestic appliance theme, I've just bought a 2-slice toaster where you can turn off 1 side if you're only doing 1 slice, hence saving 50% electricity.

Jonnyboy Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 When does anyone ever eat only 1 piece of toast??? Ive done it. Once I ironed my swimming trunks and melted a big hole through them
mcjwills Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 Why don't irons have on/off switches? Who cares about an on/off switch. I am not genetically disposed to be able to weild one, hence why its the wifes job.
dubai_phil Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 Ah yes an Iron. I remember those, I think the Maid reminds me I need a new one about every 5 years.
suewhistle Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 I once had a cleaning lady who ironed a work blouse. Unfortunately she used my ski waxing iron she found in a cupboard. Fortunately she realised something was wrong from the smell and only did the one item...
JPTCount Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 so u can't knock it on and burn the house down same thing with hair straighteners, hasn't stopped my missus from giving me 3rd degree burns on more than one occasion
hamster Posted 2 May, 2012 Posted 2 May, 2012 No word of a lie. I FOUND one of those super irons that FIRE steam out. Cleaned up like new. I ****ing love it. Dry cleaned my interview suit yesterday, got a new job.
Ken Tone Posted 3 May, 2012 Posted 3 May, 2012 Why don't irons have on/off switches? Damn good question. IMO it is a safety issue, to ensure that people do actually unplug them, rather than just rely on a switch and leave them plugged in. Switches can go wrong. Having an older brother who is an electrical engineer, I have been indocrinated into switching off at the plug just about every electrical device, rather than just switch off -- kettles, TVs, toasters, dishwasher ... etc.. especially anything that generates heat.

Wurzel Posted 3 May, 2012 Posted 3 May, 2012 Switch or no switch, why can't you buy left handed ones ?
Hamilton Saint Posted 4 May, 2012 Posted 4 May, 2012 When does anyone ever eat only 1 piece of toast??? 3 = 2 + 1 5 = 4 + 1
