    What are the normal every day things that you just hate having to do?

    For me, it is filling the car with petrol. I don't why but I always feel like a nervous wreck doing it and that something will go wrong.

    It never has and never will but something I really dislike having to do.

    Taking out the bins. No reason why. I just resent doing it.

    Shaving. I'd rather grow a beard but can't for work purposes!

    Engaging in small talk, particularly with people I don't know well. I have to do it every day but I've never become any good at it.

    Brushing my teeth.
    Also, having a shower sometimes is a real effort.

    (I do do these things, I ain't no smelly person!)

    Ironing shirts. Poxy hate it.

    Changing the duvet covers fills me with anger too, made worse by the fact that i hate when it isn't changed every few days.

    Local petrol station pump has a tight nozzle and I always end up going over by the 1c. They never let it go either. Hate doing that.

    On a related note, I'm 36 years old and haven't a clue how to fold a shirt, I have nothing in my drawers, they are all on hangers.

    I gave up ironing years ago it had taken over as the bane of my life.
    I hate mopping the floors dont know why, I love cleaning everything else but mopping floors is horrendous.

    Folding the clothes out of the tumble dryer. Makes me ridiculously angry, what a waste of life.

    Ironing. All ironing.

    Mowing grass.

    The shower itself is great. It's the drying part :(

    It's the removal of the clothing.
    The freezing in the nip.
    And the drying afterwards, you're right.

    Similar to my beard-growing to avoid shaving, I realised a while back that I can wear a cardigan to work, which neatly allows me not to iron or even bother folding my shirts. Nice one.

    Now, I really don't care for cardigans, and it gets fierce warm in summer, but it's still much better.
    :-D

    I love mowing grass. I could mow and mow all day and never get tired of it.
