    Brooks Brothers does something to a line of their dress shirts that makes them impervious to wrinkles. Maybe Clyde could borrow one of mine and find out what it is and if it would be safe [or at the very least effective] on humans.

    The only thing Brooks Brothers does to their shirts is price them so that the only guys who buy and wear them are those who (a) do nothing sufficiently strenuous to produce wrinkles; (b) own enough dress shirts to fill half of their architect-designed dressing closet; and (c) send them to the cleaners for a wash and press, with starch, after each wearing.

    They have their money cleaned and pressed, too.
