What's your least favorite household chore? I hate doing the dishes. And I have a nice pile going so I think I'm going to have to dive in and tackle it.

    folding and putting away laundry. I usually end up just living out of the basket until it's time to do laundry again.

    The hoovering.. but only because my ex used to store the hoover upstairs and I always had to lug the fucking thing down them before I could get on with the job.. anyone who knows me knows how much of an arse that was.

    I love washing dishes. I get soap bubbles everywhere, and a few dishes actually end up clean. Doing housework is easy with loud music. Hmm... what do I dislike? Organizing my closet. I swear, if I actually managae to figure out what I want to wear, I can never find it. No joke. Biggest life problem.

    Scrubbing out the shower.

    I hate it so much that I do it every week to avoid having to work very hard at it.

    I don't iron anything! I hang shit up as soon as the dryer goes off to avoid wrinkles....or on the few occasions i have to wear dress shirts...the go to the cleaners.

    Having to scold the hired help...very tiring.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    Laundry is the bane of my existence.

    I hate doing laundry. It just never ends. When I think I have finished the task, my husband and kids throw more laundry in the basket.

    Further, I would rather spend money on new socks than try and sort the huge basket of mismatched socks. What happens to the socks between the washer and the dryer.....where does that one sock go?

    I don't mind doing the dishes. With 2 dishwashers it's a piece of cake. And I don't mind washing and folding laundry. It's putting away the clean clothes that I hate. I can't stand putting away the clothes.
    I really screwed that up. I really Schruted it.

    bathroom chores in general, hate 'em. but I'm with you....do them every week and they're not as bad.
    believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.

    Dusting.

    I don't mind most chores (they need to be done), but I absolutely hate dusting.
    No time to be void or save up on life. You got to spend it all.

    ironing :mad: It would probably help if I didn't cram all my clothes in my closet and bought less complicated clothes :p

    Unblocking the toilet when it overflows. It's only an occasional horror, but 'nuff said. :eek:

    ironing. I don't know what my problem is but it takes me 15 minutes to iron a shirt and 10 minutes after I put it on it looks like I slept in it. Its so frustrating. I have been taking my clothes to the dry cleaners a lot lately.

    Not sure if this is considered a household chore because the conventional ones really don't bother me to do but I hate going through the mail. Weeding out all the junk I receive everyday and throwing it away. And then realizing my ass is going to have to deal with that shit that was sent tom me unsolicited. There have been times I just want to start tossing the junk mail right at the mailbox and letting the wind deal with it.
