I have no problem washing the dishes and typically do it in our household.

Absolute worst job ever.

Try it! It's still a pain, but slightly easier.

Brushing teeth and face washing are tied. I've realized that I really hate when any part of my face is wet unless I'm in the shower.

ME TOO. I wait until the last possible moment before my husband gets home because I know how ridiculous and lazy it looks that I could be home all day long (with kids, yes, but still) and not have emptied and re-loaded the dishwasher. But I HATE IT.

I flip my duvet cover inside out, put the duvet on and tie the corners down, and then flip it right side out again. Takes 60 seconds, tops.

Same. I miss NY when there was full service. I didn’t pump my own gas until I was 39.

Get one of those big microwave splatter guards and tell everyone they must use it! My microwave never gets dirty inside anymore.

Sorting laundry and carrying it upstairs when I’m done washing it.

Ditto - it’s super easy if you just flip in inside out and then hold the top corners of the cover and duvet and shake. Much faster than the video method.

I may have occasionally added dirty dishes to a clean, full dishwasher and ran it again.
