    I used to hate dishes, but then I discovered that if you simply fill the sink with the hottest water imaginable and some soap and let them soak for 30 minutes or more they practically clean themselves. Helps when you rinse stuff off after using it too.

    Vacuuming for me. I hate taking out the garbage too, but vacuuming is the bane of my existence. In part because my wife and I seem to be pack rats and the apartment is generally a disorganized mess making the job even harder than it needs to be.

    ....

    Probably mowing the lawn; it used to be done by my brother so now I have to do it since he's in SF. I don't mind doing dishes (I don't do them; I load the dishwasher), and everything else is done by a maid anyway so whatever - as long as I don't leave a huge mess in my room (usually due to laundry piling up for weeks)

    Man I need less clothes.

    Yeah, the only exception to this is my boyfriend. When I was sharing a bathroom with my brother and two cousins it was so, so, so disgusting. The older of the two cousins never uh, wrapped her pads so the room would get a smell

    All of it.

    Because I'm one hell of a butler.

    The house work is cared for by some migrant workers, so that part is cake. The annoying thing is how much they whine when I lock them up in their cages for the night.

    Same. Between the chunky dirty water, the tedium of washing multiple items, and the discomfort of being partially wet, dishes are miserable.

    Vacuuming because I realize how much hair I'm losing or shedding. However you wanna put it. Yes, I'm a cat.

    Dusting. It feels like a defeated purpose because it just keeps coming back.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    Taking out the trash, or cleaning toilets. Both are seriously gross. @. @

    I dislike taking out the trash since I actually have to leave the house to do it.

    You know the awesome way to mow a lawn?

    On a riding mower.

    Then afterward you can push the speed up to max and zip around the yard at 10mph with the wind in your hair

    Changing the cat litter. Clearing out the poop is one thing, changing the entire litter and cleaning the tray is something else. Just pouring the littler into a bag to take downstairs can end up with a small cloud of piss-laden litter dust. Just don't breathe.

    That reminds me: cleaning out my guinea pig's cage used to be pretty horrible but then I discovered the wonders of lining the cage with a trash bag!
