Forget flying to the stars - try quicker-drying bras

Dave

Cup Size? 

Do they do the dryers in different sizes? Otherwise you'd have someone trying to stretch an A-cup on the DD dryer, or putting the DD onto something more suited to an A and having it sag. (We don't want sagging DDs, do we?)

Also, what range of sizes, do they cater for the really well-endowed, given that this group are more likely to need costly support and want to take good care of it. Inquiring hands^Wminds want to know.

Bulgarian airbag compliance? 

Truly this is a technological zenith, but will it cater for the Jordans of this world?

what happened to a clothes peg 

And the airing cupboard or the drying line? Didn't that suffice?

Does the same logic about contoured drying apply to socks, tights, gloves, thongs and Y-fronts? The utility room is going to look like a scene from star wars

IT Angle

Sure there are alternatives. Exhibit one, girls in their twenties tend not to sag very much. Collagen, I think. Your other option is worse, but transformation into Bulgarian funbags tend to reduce the sag, as well.

Additionally, there is no IT angle to this story. However, I don't care, because it's truly funny.

Is there a model for underpants?

IT angle 

Coat

what the hell, no IT angle? It was probably designed by a guy who was a former network engineer, maybe even a desktop tech... Secondly, screw the IT angle, Paris has boobage (albeit some what lacking), this very appliance could be in her humble abode, so that satisifies the Paris angle... And it was borderline interesting enough to make it to the pages of the reg, which you're probably viewing from the comfort of your cell phone, pc or other i-enabled device... It's got IT slapped, cupped and fondled all over it!

"Additionally, there is no IT angle to this story."

Uh ... it's a bit of tech, is it not?

Me, I just hang the wife's bras on a hanger over a door frame when she's too tired to finish taking care of her own laundry ... seems to work quite nicely. She's never complained, anyway.

::shrugs:: Whatever. Insert "naughty knickers" joke here, or thereabouts.

And watch me yawn ... C'mon people, grow up a little, would you?

Thank you very much, I'm here all week, try the fish.

My head... 

I iron them on my head, luckily my head is round...

hmmm 

If I ever spend that much on a bra, I'll get myself checked in tot he nearest mental unit.

As for drying them, I find that hanging them on the bedroom radiator works well enough.

You forgot your coat. Let me fetch it for you.

Useless for many women.. 

If you read the website it tells you that there are different inserts for different bra sizes. Still, it's bloody useless. Maximum cup size of DD.

What's the point at which the average bra becomes expensive and difficult to find in the UK? DD and up..
