Decreasing hall

To prevent having to iron your clothes

In the Hall way, a steam clean hot jet would be sprayed onto you as you leave the house in your creased clothes. It would steam clean your clothes and de-crease them at the same time. Thus avoiding the need of your Mum to iron everything. She could use the time to relax maybe.

       my clothes are forever decreasing. I am not getting fat(ter) shirley? :)

       Just hang your clothes in the bathroom as you take a shower. (Also, note that you do not want to be wearing your clothes while directing jets of steam at them - you will risk serious scalding.)

       Stop calling me shirley... The room could also be used as a sauna/facial cleaning system. Then I wouldn't need a wash -

       I had a ditzy roommate once who was a "Clinique girl" -- i.e. she wore a phony white lab coat to sell cosmetics at a department store. One day she was reprimanded by her supervisor for having a wrinkled lab coat. So on her break she went to women's wear and borrowed one of their standing steam irons and ironed the front -- while still wearing it. She ended up with 2nd degree burns on her chest.   

       I like the decreasing hall part, though. But what happens if you have one skinny person and one fat person living in the same house? Separate hallways?

       De-creasing, no?   

       How about a vacuum hallway and steam-generating clothes?
