The 30-Minute Rule is a sacred tradition in Extreme Ironing, a discipline that requires ironing boards, ironing boards' cousins, and ironing boards' arch-nemesis. It states that any task that can be accomplished in under 30 minutes should, in fact, be done in under 30 minutes. Otherwise, you're just wasting your time with trivial pursuits.
The 30-Minute Rule is a guiding principle for the modern Extreme Ironer. It's a reminder that, even the most daunting tasks can be conquered with focus and dedication. And by 'conquered,' we mean 'ironed to a crisp.'
