What chore do you hate most?

[margotb822]

I hate hate hate folding laundry. Can't stand it. Would probably pay someone to do it (if I had the $$). I'm even here posting this to avoid doing that.

What's your least favorite chore?

[lost-in-nj]

1. cleaning the bathroom

with a toothbrush...

believe me
It's not all its cracked up to be....


:hi:

[Midlodemocrat]

2. Dishes. My girls fold the laundry which is a big relief to me.

but I can't stand dishes. It always seems that no matter how full I load the dishwasher, several more dishes/glasses pop up. Ugh.

[margotb822]

7. My boyfriend hates the dishes, too

He pouts when he has to empty it. I don't mind it so much...except when I spill the left-over water on my feet. That seems gross.

[Skittles]

3. I don't like cleaning the toilet

just hate it

[Miss Carly]

4. vacuuming

[cordelia]

5. Every single one of them, but

I hate mopping worst of all.

[GreenPartyVoter]

6. All of them, for sure. Maybe the dishes the most since they are constantly

needing to be done.

[Lilyhoney]

12. Watch this and you will understand why I hate the dishes.

Yes that is me washing all those dishes. The only reason I finished them was because I was filming. I posted a thread here about 2 years ago asking someone to come wash my dishes. I offered foaming dish soap, soft gloves, and a good meal. No one took me up on the offer but my thread brightened Matcoms day.

I am about to buy a $700 Bosch dishwasher.

I found a girl at the Vons with a sign needing help. I brought her home to wash my dishes and she only came a few times.

If I go to hell, I will surely be the dishwasher.

13. Looks like my house, right down to the griddle LOL. No dishwasher in my future, though. Money and

low water pressure say so. :(

[Lilyhoney]

21. The landlord just came over to discuss said dishwasher and

we were hiding dishes in the oven and the recycle bin in the closet and I hurried up and washed a sink load and my husband even for the first time ever dried dishes and put them away. We want this dishwasher so badly. He said ok. But now comes the spending time with the landlord part of the golden prize of receiving a dishwasher. Still won't have it for a week or so. I should have the current dishes done by then.

Thanks for watching my video. I am not always so sure I should be proud of it.

24. I hear ya on hiding dishes. ;^D Glad you are getting that dishwasher, for sure

[Deja Q]

8. Making love

:rofl:

[emilyg]

25. HaaHaa.

[krispos42]

34. If it's a chore...

...you're doing it wrong! :-)

[supernova]

9. Picking up/general decluttering

I can't stand it. :grr:

I'll dust, I'll wash the wood floors with Muphy's Oil Soap, I'll scrub out the toilet and shower, I'll do laundry, but I hate picking up!

[elleng]

28. I'm with you!

Hate dealing with 'little' things; where the HELL does THAT go?

[femmocrat]

10. Ironing. Hate it!

It takes forever and as soon as you put the clothes back on, they wrinkle. Whatever happened to "permanent press"???

[Pool Hall Ace]

11. Emptying the dishwasher.

I hated it even more when I was a kid, and would bang my head on cabinet doors that someone else forgot to close.

One time, my brother was grousing about taking the trash out, so I swapped dishwasher duties with him. After that, he enjoyed emptying the dishwasher and I had no issue with taking out the garbage.

[LynzM]

14. Tossup between washing dishes and cleaning the bathroom

Those are my two least favorite. But dishes *have* to get done, and we don't have a dishwasher... the bathroom I tend to procrastinate about embarrassingly much :blush:

[youthere]

15. Laundry period. All of it..Washing, Drying, Folding, Ironing...

It isn't that it's THAT bad..I just hate the idea that the moment I think I've finished the family has generated two more loads.

[ornotna]

16. Tetrads

I can't stand them. I don't know why, but they really bug me.

[margotb822]

18. What are tetrads?

[ornotna]

19. Chords

I was trying to be funny.

Guess not.



:cry:

[greenbriar]

17. LAUNDRY hands down...

washing and drying is easy


its the friking sorting and then the folding and hanging up

grrrrrrrrr

[Arugula Latte]

43. Yes! Fricking goddamn sumbbitch laundry! IT NEVER ENDS.

I approach the bottom of Laundry Mountain only to find the hampers have filled seemingly instantly.

Talk about a Sisyphisian effort! :grr:

[grannylib]

20. Dusting and cleaning the toilets.

If I could hire Merry Maids or whatever to do those things, I'd be delirious.

[Brigid]

22. Cleaning the cats' litterbox.

The things I do for those ungrateful little beasties. :eyes:

[Firespirit]

23. Cleaning the cat's litter box.

It obviously must be done, though, and can't be put off for long.

I still hate dealing with it. I have a thing about bodily excretions from humans, let alone animals. And poop is the worst of all.

Other than that, I actually don't mind chores. Yes, I'm OCD. :D

[theredpen]

26. Hiding the bodies

[Elidor]

27. I don't mind going to work

It's this waiting 8 hours to go home afterward. What's up with that?

[littlebit]

29. Cleaning the kitchen

after girlfriend cooks. Thankfully she only cooks one day a week.

[Forkboy]

30. Grocery shopping. I hate being around a lot of people.

Unless it's to see live music, but that's because I'm so into the music that I don't even notice anyone else.

I actually like vacuuming, and dishes don't bother me either.

[margotb822]

31. A follow up

I folded two of three loads. I think that's successful for one night. The third one can wait until tomorrow.

[Cant trust em]

32. Dusting. I hate having to move all of my shit around.

Take everything off of the dresser and put it all back. It's a good thing that I don't do it very often.

[astral]

33. Hmmmm . . . . (she looks around) . . . .

putting away the dishes.

Cleaning catbox is much less traumatic now that it's located outside the door ~~~~~~~ : )
Cleaning floors would go quicker if I did it every other day . . . I think I'm going to try that.
Seeing a spot of anything on the toilet makes me crazy so I keep that pretty clean.
De-cluttering just does not get done around here : ( (now would I PAY someone to help me with that? Abso-luuuuutely!!!)

Oh, I forgot one scary thing --- organizing the FRIDGE :scared:
It's really not as full as it looks right now; of course that has to be done only when I'm ready to finish what I started.

er --- didn't start.

___________________________
I loved the dishes video! I had a dishwasher in my previous apartment, first time I ever got friendly with a dishwasher. Congratulations!

[Flaxbee]

35. floors. I hate cleaning floors, and avoid it as much as possible

rationalizing that they'll just get dirty again quickly. Only really do it when we have someone coming over...
unless husband has dropped stuff all over the place (not uncommon). Don't like cleaning the shower, either.


And folding laundry irritates me.

[krispos42]

36. Picking up

Can't vacuum until all the bits and pieces of miscellanious stuff is picked up, and that part just drags me down.

[fight4my3sons]

37. cleaning the bathroom

I have three little boys who can't seem to aim into the toilet x(

[datasuspect]

38. cleaning the abbatoir

[annonymous]

39. Cleaning the bathroom, especially the shower stall

Soap scum and mildew are hard to remove without resorting to caustic chemical cleaners.

[dropkickpa]

40. Same as yours

I don't mind washing and drying clothes, it's the folding that gets to me so fucking irritated. And putting away. It's like the endless task! Give me dishes to do any day.

[Fire Walk With Me]

41. What ochre do I hate the most? What's that supposed to mean?

Color-phobe!

[fizzgig]

42. dishes

i feel like such a bum that i can't even load and unload the damn dishwasher and wash a few things by hand, but i just can't stand it. i don't mind laundry, tho, i find it kind of relaxing

[calico1]

44. I hate dusting, vacuuming, picking up clutter.

But I LOVE to do laundry and fold laundry. I don't mind ironing either. Also like cooking most of the time.

Too bad some of us can't trade chores.

[ordinaryaveragegirl]

45. Packing.

I'm doing waaaaay too damn much of it right now. It's getting really old.

[LibertyLover]

46. Clean the rat and guinea pig cages

I like my rats, but I don't like cleaning their cage. The guinea pig I don't like and really don't like cleaning her cage. Unfortunately my daughter is too young yet to do more than hold the guinea pig while I cage clean.

[stuntcat]

47. dishes, for the noise

I wouldn't mind doing them but all the clanking freaks me out and I'm scared I'll break something. I usually wear earplugs to load and unload the washer.
Sweeping hurts my back but I solved that by hardly every doing it :blush:

[shaniqua6392]

48. I clean houses, offices, and a hair salon for a living.

I hate all of it now. It takes every ounce of my energy just gather the enthusiasm to get the basics done at home. Thankfully, I am a bit obsessive compulsive and can not stand dirtiness. That is the only reason I clean my house at all. My least favorite thing to do would be vacuuming my house. I have two german shepherds, a cairn terrier, and two cats!!! After that, it would be the hair salon that I clean. Oh my God...the hair is unbelievable. Trillions of little bits of hair everywhere. Disgusting! Oh what some of us will do for money.

[XemaSab]

49. Washing silverware

:(

[bigwillq]

50. Dusting (nt)
