Chores

bry623 · 02-24-2006, 07:48 AM

What chore do you hate the most? I hate cleaning up dog poop. I had to get a golden retirever and this dude is the crapinest dog out there! Last night I am cleaning it up and I am almost done when he comes stroling over just out of my reach and drops a fresh steaming pile of it! He must be talking to the cat again because she always goes right after you clean the litter box!

i hate cleaning windows. needless to say i only do it once a year. i hate feeding the cat a 05:30 as well. he keeps scratching at the door until i feed him.

That's funny. My cat will stare intetnly at the door until you let her out. We call it her cat psychic powers.

My cat has learned that despite her being very cute and sweet that I am still the master. I try to feed her when I eat so morning, noon, and night.

As for chores... I HAET cleaning her litter tray. She's very good about burying her business but she makes lots of business and the litter is soon overwhelmed. I need to clean that thing again today in fact...

well my cat at the moment is currently redecorating the flat - he's tearing strips of wallpaper at various locations around the place. i can't let him outside because i'm in a built up area. i rescued him from an alley as a kitten, but i was hopeing to be in a house with a yard by now. i won't be in there for another couple of months yet...

I really hate pulling weeds. WHen I was a teenager, my folks bought a new house and on the day we moved in they pointed to the back slope and said "Have a nice summer." Ever since then I've hated it. I pulled a couple of the wifes lettuce plants out of the garden last year and she's never asked me to weed since. Good plan huh?

That's why you have kids!!

When my folks bought their house they had us kids chuck rocks from the backyard into a nearby quarry. Given that there were 4 of us it quickly became a competation and now there isn't a rock to be found in that yard.

Dealing with the gigantic wild sunflowers was even better because we used swords.

I live in apartment and they clean the outside windows. I have no pets and I am the only one that lives there. I eat at my sister house most of the time and I am pretty good about cleaning up after myself. So really the only chore I have is laundry and you can do that while watching TV or doing homework.

However growing up I was the only boy in my house with my mom and three sisters. So trust me I have done all the crappy chores you can think of.

I really hate cleaning my room. I am *unfortunately* a packrat, so I really hate throwing things away.

Well, nobody said it has to be HOUSEHOLD chores....so I'd say my least favorite chore is going to work. Not that it's horrible, but I'd rather be doing something else.
