Husband and "ironing" his shirts with the shower 🙄

[Balaur]

Instead of getting out the ironing board and iron (which lives in our bedroom), he hangs his shirt up in the shower and leaves the shower running for 10 minutes while he makes coffee. Then turns it off and has his coffee. Shower back on to actually have a shower. This annoys the shit out of me. It seems lazy and completely energy inefficient. He has also flooded the bathroom several times when the plug has not been draining well. And no, it does not make for a crisply ironed shirt but he doesn't give a shit about that either! Aibu?

Ah you've all made me laugh, thank you. Even the people who are getting as worked up about as me.

@tappingintherain

using the shower (while he's in it!) to remove creases rather than ironing = makes perfect sense and I do it myself, although it never really works.

Thanks for saying this because I've been wondering if it actually works. Never heard of this and was getting excited thinking of finally "ironing" a jacket and a couple of shirts that I've been too lazy to steam for a while now.

If it will works, that'll be perfect and i'll give it a go next time I shower! I think it will take a few showers to get them looking wearable though.

very light blouses i've had some success with....anything heavier has never really worked for me...although I do have quite quick showers so perhaps a longer/hotter one might do a slightly better job?

OP according to www.omnicalculator.com/everyday-life/shower-cost he could be spending about £130 a year showering his shirts

He should just do it while he's in the shower. Or if it makes it damp, each day he should steam the shirt for the day after .. if that makes sense.

Just make him buy his shirts two numbers too small, they won't need either steam or ironing.
