    What little chores, tasks, routines etc do you find cumbersome or inconvenient? They could be in your job that you have to do everyday like wiping down menus if you work in a pub or what used to work once but then kind of broke and now it's harder like lacing your shoes because the little plastic thingy on the lace broke off so now you have to suck the lace to thread the frayed bit through the lacehole?

    There might be new inventions just waiting to be discovered.

    Buying tickets. Captcha needs to die.

    Convincing hot women to sleep with me is little harder than it should be too, but I'd still prefer to see an end to Captcha.

    Having to remember passwords. How long until my thumbprint on the screen will do the security stuff?

    KBC's mobile banking app does it already which is pretty cool. More businesses should put some more effort into their own apps.

    Tennis sends me into a strop.

    I really used to sympathise with that poor McEnroe fella.

    Hoovering the stairs. What a load of wires and tugging and pulling. Only for it to be done again in a day or two. AAARGH.

    When you put your earphones neatly into your pocket only to take them out tangled up in knots.

    Please, please tell me you've never done this. Ew.

    Mine is taking out the rubbish. Everything from having to look through the fridge to see if anything's gone off, to getting it into the indoor bin, to getting the indoor bin into the outdoor bin, to getting the outdoor bin out onto the street for collection. That whole thing. It's just ludicrously time consuming. AND you have to put on shoes to do it, which is horrendous.

    Sorting taxes.
    I'm self employed and doing it for the first time this year.
    Absolute effort.

    Cooking, I hate spending time in supermarkets getting ingredients, having to wait in queues, then having to wash, chop, cook and wash everything again. So much effort put into something you have to do but the product of which is consumed in a matter of minutes. For this reason I batch cook but I still hate having to do it, I wish they would build a machine to cook dinners.
