| Kuzuya Mishima | I agree with yuki. I can't stand laziness. when your given a job to do don't whine and complain just do it and get it over with. No buts this or that JUST DO IT, But if i had to chose a chore it would be raking the lawn.( Our lawn is sooooooooooooooooooooo big it's annoying) We live in the woods so that's alot of leaves to rake. ![]() | ||||||||

| Hero Complex | I honestly hate the dishes with a growing passion. My family tends to not scrape off the leftovers, or to rinse the dishes before putting them in the sink, so when it comes to dishwashing time, you had dried ketchup, mustard, food remnants, grease, yada yada all over the plates, it makes me sick to my stomach. I especially hate washing dishes if eggs was a meal for the day. A-YUCK. | ||||||||

Inventory | Mowing the lawn. I hate hate hate it. T.T" That's because our lawn is quite.. large. I rather do anything else, just not that. .,." (I need about 1-2 hours for that <.<") I don't like ANY household chores, but the lawn is my least favorite of all. .-." I also dislike to clean the kitchen, but today I did it though I wasn't supposed to. I was just pissed when I got home and it was still dirty. <.<" My brother's currently at home every day and normally HE should do it (as he hasn't got anything else to do *hehe*), but he forgets it everytime. And then I am the one who has to listen to my father being angry about my lazy brother ~.~ That sucks, seriously.~ It isn't fun, but... well, someone's got to do it. XD" Edit: Oh, but I like doing the laundry. Just because I never have to! XD My mother loves to do the laundry, so she never wants me to do it *hrhr* :3 | ||||||||||||

Inventory | I hate cleaning bathrooms, mowing lawns, and sweeping/mopping because it is SOOOOOOOOooooooo time-consuming. I have to use noxious cleaners and the smell of cut grass is nasty to me. I actually find laundry and vacuming enjoyable, probably because of the sounds and pleasant smells. I almost always take a nap in my laundry room. | ||||||||||||

| Blitz Duke | I hardly do half the things on the poll. But for the things I DO perform, it's not so bad. But I hate mowing the grass. Why? Because mowing causes the chopped grass to pile up behind the mower. So really, I'm mowing over the same line of grass at least 2 times, maybe even three. o_O Such a pain, and the lawn mower is not automatic. I gotta push it THE ENTIRE TIME. I love when it rains, because then more grass comes. And I gotta mow it all over... AGAIN. O_o Oh well, who likes chores, anyway? ![]() | ||||||||

| Royal Guard | I can't stand pulling weeds. That's like.. worse than all the ones that were listed(to me, anyway). Our entire front lawn gets covered in weeds every year. Spring showers don't help, either. But then, the bright side is I'll get tanned, at least .My other least favorite chores is Bathroom, Pets, and Vacuuming. I hate cleaning the bathtub and the mirrors.. I hate vacuuming(even though it only takes a couple of minutes).. and Pets.. ugh, I hate cleaning their crap and puke. D: | ||||||||

Inventory | I detest washing up; I usually leave that to the other half. ![]() Though at work, it is quite theraputic, though it takes me a long time because everything is so greasy, and during our opening time, there is a car at least every two minutes at the drive-thru. What I love about washing up (or 'dive') at work, is the high-pressure spray. You pull on it, and a jet of water comes swooshing out, and gets rid of any debris you missed. Though one time I was washing the fry station, and had a small cut on the side of my hand. It hurt like hell because of all the salt! >_< I don't really do any chores at home, again, i leave that to the OH; but he doesn't do too well. I cleaned the bathroom today and got it cleaner than he would. He felt ashamed and embarassed because there are marks around the plughole and handrails when he finishes, though it is reasonably clean. I found out that he was spraying the cleaner on it and trying to scrub it off straight away. You are supposed to leave it for at least a minute before rinsing the dirt off. It was oddly satisfying to get a filthy basin sparkling clean. It got all dirty again when I washed his hair this evening. ![]() | ||||||||||||

| | I thought about this but there's not one thing on that list that I wouldn't like doing. I don't mind cleaning up, at all. I rather enjoy it. I don't think twice about cleaning anything. Whether it be the toilet, my pets mess or dishes. It's all ohkay by me. I love the feeling of spending ages cleaning and then looking at what you've done and realising how good it looks. In ideal conditions I would love to be a housewife. I think that's right up my alley. Cleaning the house, looking after the (hopefully) lots of pets, children and cooking for everyone. That sounds amazing to me. | ||||||||

I'm changing my answer. XD Cleaning the bathroom is rapidly becoming one of the banes of my existence. This also includes the litter box which is in the bathroom. Makes sense to have all the toilets in one place, after all. It's gross, it requires multiple different cleaners and it tends to take a long time to do a satisfactory job, especially if I include the shower. (Odd that a shower of all places gets quite dirty if left unchecked.) I do feel (no pun intended) much cleaner after I do it, though. And yes I always wash my hands after cleaning anything, especially the cat box. ~DragonHeart~ | ||||||||||||||

| S**t... Looks like they upgraded. |
I picked mowing the lawn because we owned 5 acres, and it had about 7 or 8 70 foot pine trees. So first i had to walk around every tree and pick up every pine cone so it didn't mess up the mower (each tree had about 200 pine cones)! Then i had to rake the pine needles so it wouldn't kill the grass, and so my dad could burn them. After that he let me use a push mower to do half the yard which literally took 12-14 hours to complete! So I truly despise mowing now!! | ||||||||

Dishes. I don't like doing these when my parents don't rinse the plates first >>;; Cleaning the kitchen in general. The floor and the stove are a pain. Cleaning the bathroom is just nasty. I don't mind cleaning the tub but I'm too young to be scrubbing toilets me thinks. Cleaning up after my pet. I got a kitten a little bit ago and he poos all over the place. I keep trying to get him to go in the litter box but he won't listen to me =( | ||||||||||||||

Going a bit off topic here but I think I can offer some advice about your kitten, Howl. First, how old was he when you got him? Most kittens should not be separated from their mothers until around 12 weeks old. His mother should have taught him how to use a litter box before you got him. If he was younger than that chances are you will have to teach him yourself. Second, when he does his business outside the box, do you use an enzymatic cleaner? You can clean it as much as you want but unless you use an enzyme cleaner, he will be able to smell the spots where he went before (especially if he peed there as well) and will begin associating those spots as places to 'go'. Cats are creatures of habit first and foremost. Your local pet store should carry cleaners specifically for this purpose. ETA: Also, under no circumstances should you "punish" him when you catch him doing his business outside the box. It sounds like he hasn't been taught properly so scolding him or whatever will do you no good and only traumatize the little guy. ETA2: Forgot the most important thing, lol. Have you brought him to the vet to rule out any health problems that may be contributing to his bad box habits? ~DragonHeart~ Last edited by DragonHeart; 02-15-2010 at 03:33 PM.. | ||||||||||||||

I don't care about chores. Dishes take 5 minutes to do, I clean my bathroom once a week because I don't want a dirty bathroom. I clean my room when needed. Not a big deal. | ||||||||||||||

My friend gave him to me after her cat had kittens. I think he is long over a month old his is still kind of fuzzy though. I don't really scrub with anything beside soapy water and I don't punish him. If I catch him peeing somewhere I try to pick him up and run him to the litter box so he can finish. My mom says he will learn after a while. >>;; | ||||||||||||||
