Guilty Pleasures, part 2It's been a while since we last asked this question and CaptainFellatioNelson's confession that he likes "to fart under the duvet, creep in and see how long I can last only on the fart air contained within" reminded us just how good it was last time.
What are the little things you do for fun when nobody else is around?

IroningDVD playing in the background, clouds of steam, a hint of spray starch and I'm as happy as a piggy in poo.
Shirts, t-shirts, boxers (if cotton), trousers, bed linen, tablecloths, teatowels for Bob's sake, all is fodder for my steaming weapon of flatness. If it's made out of cotton, it's mine.
A light press to remove crumples or a full on razor creased cotton shirt? Nae problemo.
Mrs Osok has thwarted my plans of universal ironed-ness by buying 'non-iron' shirts in the past. Hah! I sneer at such labour-saving inventiveness and reach furtively for the starch. I have been banned from No 1 son's school uniforms on the grounds of being a 'fucking idiot' so I have to make do with polishing his shoes.
Infuriatingly, it takes me a good hour to drive to work with a seatbelt *crumpling* me. And when I get there it's so cold I'm wearing a fleece. Grrrrrrrr.
I don't do socks. That would be silly.

Prevert!!!I can't stand ironing. It's absolutely torturous. I am a bit particular about how I do my shirts though. My (now) wife ironed one for me once and I asked her whether she'd been playing 'pull' with the dog or ironing it.
I am doomed to spend the rest of my days doing my own ironing.
As I hate it so much, I usually have to iron a shirt for work each morning; I too, hate the seatbelt crumpling my freshly flattened attire.

Iron(y)ingMy MIL gave me an iron as a hint. I cut the cord off it and used it as a doorstop.

i don't own an ironi find that hanging wet clothes on the washing line takes out the creases. i then hang them up. no iron needed.
i must admit, though, i do buy an awful lot of slinky clothes that really don't need ironing.
i may be mad, but i'm not masochistic.
