About this Quote

This quote by Steven Wright is a humorous observation about the relatively unnecessary feature of irons having a setting for long-term press. It suggests that the setting is redundant due to the fact that all clothes should be pressed completely, and that the setting is unnecessary. The quote is a play on words, as the phrase "long-term press" can also be analyzed as a metaphor for something that is unchanging and will never ever change. This is a smart way of pointing out the absurdity of the feature, as it indicates that the setting is meaningless which absolutely nothing can be done to make clothing remain pressed permanently. The quote is a funny way of poking fun at the apparently unneeded function of irons, and it is a pointer that in some cases things are not as they appear.
