I hate being a housewife. Make the beds, wash the dishes, cook dinner, and do the laundry. Then six months go by and you have to do it all over again.

Dishyphus
Get two dishwashers and as dishes get dirty they migrate from one to the other. Never put them into or take them out of another useless non-washing cabinet again.
Good idea.
Make the dish cabinet ANOTHER dishwasher.
Exactly! It is so dumb that we're schlepping dishes into useless cabinets.
Life is just one big, long, futile fight against the ever-increasing entropy of an inevitably doomed universe and the best we can hope for is to carve out some sort of fleeting happiness and meaning in our short lives before they're over.
Dishes and laundry, man
Dishes and laundry man
The superhero we need, but not the one we deserve
Laundry is easy, slap it into the washing machine and throw some detergent in then walk away till it's done. Once it's done, slap it into the dryer with a dryer sheet and clean out the lint then wait for it to be done. Ez-pz. Helps I dont give a shit about folding my clothes though, I just use two separate laundry baskets, one for clean and the other for dirty, like the degenerate that I am.
Dishes though. Fuck me I hate doing them, even if you have a machine to do it. If you forget (or your roommate and brother 😡) to rinse your dishes off and just throw it into the sink then you gotta either let em soak or scrub them off with hot water and a scrubby. At that point you may as well not even bother with the god damn machine.
I'm generally good about it, not always, but both my roommate and brother don't give af despite me bitching at them to at least rinse their shit off after using a dish.
Fuck dishes.

Lol my mom bought a new washing machine a couple of years ago, then spent hours and hours watching it run and taking notes (like how full it got with water, how long each cycle took etc.). She tried out the "bedclothes" setting and almost called 911 because the tub actually fills up with water for that. Some real Beautiful Mind shit.
Whenever "what's your favorite technology" comes up, I'm like, there's a magic box in my kitchen I can stuff full of dirty dishes and they're clean the next day. And you can tell by their reaction whether they grew up with a dishwasher, or if they were the dishwasher.
That's why I just eat off my shirt. Already have to wash it so 2 for 1. And I don't have to worry about something falling on my shirt, it's great peace of mind.
Hah, a long time ago I tried to avoid building up a bunch of dirty dishes by having just one of each (one plate, one cup, one fork, etc.) but instead of washing those I ended up re-using them without washing. I know a person who is unashamed to use disposable dishes for everything and I don't know if that's degradation or liberation.
Did you know that rats will leave your dishes spotless? That's the real life hack here.
Using disposable ones for everything is eco-terrorism
Depends, I think if they're compostable it might be OK. Plastic or styrofoam would be horrific
If ants wouldn't eventually find my good food stores and just kept to cleaning up the crumbs, we could have a simbiotic relationship instead of me occasionally waging chemical warfare on them.
Spotless, only if you don't mind their urine all over your dishes. I guess what you can't see doesn't exist though, right? /s
Dusting is the one that pisses me off. I don't know how people manage to keep a big ass house dust free; it's a long-ass chore even in my tiny apartment.
I have a big house, I replace the AC/Heating air filters very often and have a roomba that vacuums daily.
It's not dust free, but you can get away with only dealing with it on a monthly basis
Dishes you may have to do, but remember, it doesn’t get any dirtier after 3 years.
Also the laundry (folding it specifically).
I enjoy doing the dishes quite a bit, but my back doesn't. I hate being so freaking tall.
I don’t mind doing dishes (or anything else in the kitchen), it’s the laundry I fucking hate doing. Seriously, the absolute worst chore ever. My mother is the exact opposite, she genuinely enjoys doing laundry but hates dealing with the kitchen (except cooking, she loves to cook). So my dad always cleans the kitchen every night, I haven’t seen her clean the kitchen (or bathrooms actually either) since I’ve been alive. I’m trying to be similar, I try to always clean the kitchen every night so my wife doesn’t have to, because that’s her least favourite chore. Unfortunately her second least favourite chore is laundry, so we both struggle to get it done.
I don't know why I hate it but I'll let the sink fill with dishes because I dread unloading the dishwasher...a 90 second task that seems like it take 20 minutes and requires extrenuous effort.
Mowing for me, especially in the middle of summer. If only the HOA fees for a townhouse (without lawns) weren’t so expensive, I would’ve chosen that instead of a SFH.
Have a dishwasher. I enjoy emptying and filling it up as its one of the few moments I get to catch up on podcasts.
If I ever get rich, I'm getting a maid and a chef. Or honestly if if android service bots become affordable, I'd get one. Idc if I'm at risk of a robot uprising...household chores are too annoying and never ending!!
