What is the most boring thing to you that you need to do anyway?

Asked by mazingerz88 (29260points) May 16th, 2011

Your job? LOL. : ) Whether we are very much aware or it merely exist in our subconscious, there are dull routines we do perform as human beings on a daily if not on an hour by hour monotonous pattern. Could you be the lucky one who does not go through any of these cyclical humdrum or one of the many who roll their eyes, sigh heavily as they are about to do that boring thing again?

washing dishes

@WestRiverrat Don’t mind washing dishes which I find to be a good time to ponder on things actually as long as it’s not done on a regular basis. But you’re right, worked once as a dishwasher in California and that was a douche.

Waiting in line, I can’t abide queueing! Almost immediately I want to pull on the person’s hair in front of me or scream out hurry up!!
I’m such a patient person, I really am ;¬}

Taking out the trash.
I call it ” procrasta-trash”. haha

I have about a 40 yard, 40 degree uphill slant driveway and wheeling my giant can up the hill is a major chore.

Other than that, I’m pretty on top of things.

I love doing housework, and the laundry. Is that odd?

Why do I get the feeling watching porn or eating ice cream will not be given as an answer here?

Going to the post office.

Hair, shaving my legs and make-up (I do enjoy applying my make up at times though) bore the hell out of me.

@noelleptc Indeed. For obvious reasons, going down isn’t as boring and tiresome. : )

Ironing clothes

@Neizvestnaya

You iron? Oh my..I havn’t even owned an iron in about 20 years now. lol

Neizvestnaya's avatar

@Coloma: Oh, I’m not that fussy anymore but once upon a time I ironed everything. I’m weaning myself slowly, bought a hand held steam wand.

Washing windows. For some reason, it doesn’t bring the same satisfaction that other household chores do. At work, it was reviewing other people’s expense reports and tracking costs for budgeting purposes.

OpryLeigh's avatar

@Coloma I stopped ironing 2 years ago!

All household chores.
