Extreme Ironing Takes Off... Thanks To The Web

from the ah,-what-the-web-was-made-for dept

Who says the web isn't useful any more? According to this article, we can thank the web for the growing popularity of "extreme ironing", loosely defined as ironing your clothes in the most extreme places possible - while getting your picture taken. In the past, anyone who decided that such a past time was fun would probably be considered in need of some professional help. However, these days, the web allows such people to connect with each other.

    Monte Python couldn't have written a better sketch. What's next? "extreme nose picking" ... "extreme shaving" ... "extreme underarm deodorant application" ... "extreme juggling"? Morons. My only relief is that it's "catching on" in Europe, not America.
