The Return of Extreme

[shereads]

Thanks to Seattle Zack, whose contribution to Dr. Mabeuse's "Presents" thread has changed my life. I have a focus now that transcends the pursuit of illicit sex:

Extreme Ironing.

My God, SZ, how long have you known about this and kept it from us?

Wait a sec...i love this so much i am slipping into sub-speak...

My God, Sir, how long have You known about this and kept if from U/us?

This is what i'm going to do with my life from now on...Well, a little more sex first, and then I'll do this...I'm not sure these sports can safely be combined. Maybe that's a thread for next year.

Meanwhile:

I'm mesmerized...It just doesn't get any better than this.

Forget HamsterDance. Forget the damned Peeps and their stupid medical experiments.

Forget about penises and coc - No, no wait...Don't forget about those, not just yet.

But do take a look at this and tell me if anything else that involves an appliance and clothing comes as close to a purely sexual thrill as this kind of action:

Equipment reviews

Rowenta DM820 Professional Luxe Steam Iron

I have to declare an interest here - Rowenta supplied this iron as part of the Team GB sponsorship for the World Championships. This has however given us the opportunity to test it in extreme and varied conditions.

This is a solid, well built (in Germany) iron which doesn't break easily. It has withstood ironing sessions in the mountains, at the seaside and more urban locations.

Plus points

- it's a good looking, well made iron
- quality of ironing is exceptional, even in the hands of inexperienced ironists

Minus points

- it's much heavier than simpler irons which have been optimised for extreme use.


Features


-High qualiity stainless steel soleplate.

This does tarnish when exposed to seawater and not cleaned for a week or two but can be easily restored with a polish. Rated by Fe for checking one's appearence.

How did THAT get in there?

That was the work of Marshmallow Peeps Fetishists. They're just pissed off that they don't have a story category yet.

Anyone?



Meanwhile, this just in from the world of Extreme Ironing: a "Nude Ironing at Altitude" record :

"The EIB {Extreme Ironing Bureau} has confirmed a new world alititude record for extreme ironing from a team from South Africa who ironed (naked!) at the top of Africa's highest mountain, Kilimanjaro...We haven't got many details about the achievement, other than the team was led by Yster who ironed at the top of Kilimanjaro on 14 August 2003.

The photograph is censored by the Bureau but it's still impressive:

Vergeet je skates of je skateboard

Vergeet je skates of je skateboard, pak je strijkijzer! Na snowboarding, american football of basketball is het tijd voor een nieuwe sport: extreme ironing, of - in goed Hollands - extreem strijken. Duitsland, Amerika en Australië zijn al gevallen voor deze extreme sport. Nu is het de beurt aan Nederland.

[Seattle Zack]

Well, um, yes, glad you enjoyed it. Don't try it at home though, those are trained professionals. Stay off the roof.

Extreme is in the eye of the beholder, I suppose. Anytime I actually get out an iron, it's an extreme event. Extremely rare.

I do think I saw these guys on my last trip east of the Cascades though.

We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold.
-- Hunter S. Thompson

Seattle, you're in danger of becoming my god. Your signature quote is from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, the second-greatest work of non-fiction on the topic of prescription pharmaceuticals, motorcycle racing, journalism and lizard-men, by an American author.

The first chapter alone is worth the price of the trip.

If H.T. were covering a sporting event today, it wouldn't be a race in Vegas. It would be Extreme Ironing in the Netherlands.

 

[snooper]

YES! You've made ...

... a cast-iron case for the return of the extreme section.

stop me...help me...

No way, never, no how! This was a great way to start my day, you keep it up, girl.

Competition & Cover-Up!

. . . this just in from the world of Extreme Ironing: a ‘Nude Ironing at Altitude' record . . . new world altitude record for extreme ironing from a team from South Africa who ironed (naked!) at the top of Africa's highest mountain, Kilimanjaro . . . The photograph is censored by the Bureau but it's still impressive. . .

I hate to point out, but there is a reason for the censorship. Without the yellow blocker, a large suspiciously ‘iron-shaped' rounded-arrowhead burn mark would be visible on the ‘Winner's Weiner.'

Nor is this the first champion to suffer from that most common "Extreme Ironing" injury, 'scorched scrotum.'

"When some of the better-known European Mattress Gymnasts drop out of the Sexual Olympics competitions, because of debilitating injuries suffered in a questionable sport like 'Extreme Ironing'," declared OSC Chairman, Deek Poontang-Smith, "it is long past time that government policing agencies bring this craze under the control of "the Olympic Steering Committee."

"If we legitimize ‘Extreme Ironing' today, we must legitimize ‘Competition Drowning' or 'Javelin Catching' Tomorrow.

It must stop somewhere!"

Hey Shereads if since you live to iorn I have a heap of clothes that have been set aside for months aching for the burning comfort that will bring a wrinkle free life. Hell if you want I'll make up a sport called extreme window washing and etreme laundry too.


The Mrs <---- Who would be struck with an iorn than pick one up

That made me spit when I laughed.

ella, I feel for you. Almost didn't see this as I saw "extreme" and thought it was one of pure's headache inducing threads.

gracias - que te vaya bien (really),

Perdita

 

[shereads]

Hey Shereads if since you live to iorn...

I'm afraid you misunderstand, destinie...I hate to iron...But if it meant exotic travel and adventures like these, I might reconsider...

McKenna, what i love about the Dutch site is that i can almost read it myself...right up until the last sentence. Maybe you can translate.

Perdita, dear, I'm so glad this one doesn't give you a headache. Let's see, do i have anymore Extreme Ironing adventure pix? Hmmm...

Nee maar, She. Ik had niet eens in de gaten dat ik plotseling Nederlands zat te lezen.

Geweldig niet? Dat strijken.
