Is loving ironing a quirk? because I really enjoy ironing...it's very relaxing to me
no. that's a sickness... (PS can I send you my shirts each week?....)perkana wrote:Is loving ironing a quirk? because I really enjoy ironing...it's very relaxing to me
I had an older model Roomba about 4 years ago and while it did ok on the (fake) wood floors in the dining room, kitchen and hallway, it just couldn't get around on the thick carpeted living room and bedrooms.Adurentibus Spina wrote:I bought an older model Roomba. It goes under my couch easily, and into corners. It doesn't have suction as powerful as a Dyson or anything, but it also doesn't have belts that can break easily, and the method for emptying it is so much better than canister or bag vacs. I run that thing a couple times a week while I'm doing other stuff (like washing dishes, which I also hate), and it keeps the cat hair pretty much under control. I know they make a model for pet-hair that would probably deal with Retriever hair (my parents have a Golden so I know exactly how bad it is) a bit better. Worth thinking about... since at least that way you wouldn't have to move all the furniture, and you could just do the intensive cleaning with the regular vac once a month or something.

Don't listen to these people...I am a chronic ironer myself...everything except underwear t-shirts and jeans even...you will not catch me dead in anything wrinkled...perkana wrote:Is loving ironing a quirk? because I really enjoy ironing...it's very relaxing to me
I hate food shopping that's why I love it that I can do it online and the supermarket brings the stuff to my place.Romeo wrote:I love to go food shopping. I would go food shopping everyday if I could.
I HATE doing laundry. I avoid it until I have so much laundry it takes me hours to get it all done.
My friend loves doing laundry and HATES food shopping. She waits until she only has a brown head of lettuce & 1/4 of milk left before she goes to the store.
If we were lesbians we would make the perfect couple.
I've never ironed underwear or bedwear. Jeans I haven't ironed in 10 years maybe, I unwrinkle them when I take them out of the dryer, while they are still warm.Essence_Smith wrote:Don't listen to these people...I am a chronic ironer myself...everything except underwear t-shirts and jeans even...you will not catch me dead in anything wrinkled...perkana wrote:Is loving ironing a quirk? because I really enjoy ironing...it's very relaxing to me
You're gonna fucking drown, fool...Larry B. wrote:
What else? I need to have water around me, almost at all times. If I go out, bottle of water. When I'm working, 1 or 2 bottles of water that are filled up after about an hour. When I visit someone, I always ask for a glass of water.
i recently dated a girl that would only charge her phone when it died and then she would only charge it for a few minutes. it drove me crazy. i bought her a car charger and she wouldn't use it. she would also get $5 in gas at a time and would never fill up. same thing i guess.Larry B. wrote: If it weren't for me, my girlfriend's phone would last her about 6 hours per day. She arrives in my apartment, I see her phone, I plug it in and it's at 50%. A couple of hours later I see it unplugged and I plug it again. 85%.
Just the idea of drinking milk makes me gag.Romeo wrote: She waits until she only has a brown head of lettuce & 1/4 of milk left before she goes to the store.
You don't pay at the pump?SR wrote:I'm the guy who likes a round number with no cents at the fuel pump
Of course. I just try to time my release of the handle to round off to amounts with no cents, such as this $42.00, but I usually end up like this $42.02.Adurentibus Spina wrote:You don't pay at the pump?SR wrote:I'm the guy who likes a round number with no cents at the fuel pump
... I meant: you don't preset the amount? I guess if you pre-auth 50 but only need 42 you'd have to play that game... but then you could just pre-auth 40 and get it exact. I guess that's less fun though.SR wrote:Of course.

Like Seinfeld.
who per-authorizes a certain amount? you just put your card in and pump away.Adurentibus Spina wrote:... I meant: you don't preset the amount?
