What is your least favorite household chore, and to what lengths will you go to avoid doing it? (ani.social)

Mine is washing dishes.

If left to my own devices, I will let dishes collect for a week in my kitchen sink.

Fortunately, I have a dishwasher. And a wife, but she doesn't enjoy doing dishes either, but at least it's a shared misery.

Also hate dishes, have wife. It works out because I do the chores she can't or hates, and vice versa.

Before that, my solution was to turn dishes into dish. Use one plate, one fork, one cup for everything. Quick wipe for dry meals, wash when actually dirty.

We are a mirror of you. I like to cook, husband doesn't mind dishes so he does the after-dinner cleanup. But yeah same thing, he is good at things I am not good at. I do garden, household AV and tech, finances, all the cooking, he does kitchen, remembers to change the filters in the air conditioner, maintains the cars, we outsource a lot of the other cleaning.
