You know those easy tasks that seem so simple that you just hate doing? For me, I hate opening the mail. It's no bother for me to throw out the obvious junk mail. I just hate all of the "official" stuff and have about 25 pieces just sitting on my desk to tend to. :bh

I hate doing anything that happens before 9:00 am. :r
But all kidding aside, for some reason I hate getting out of my chair to plug in my laptop charger/video game controller/cell phone charger/Nook charger. Surely there must be a better way to go about it.
Oh and finding new batteries for things and then replacing the old batteries, I hate it.
...apparently I have an internal power struggle :r

I also hate plugging in game things like controllers and such. Also vacuuming. I am kind of lazy though in simple tasks.

I don't do laundry or dishes. What I do hate doing is shoveling snow. Although of I have 2 beers first, and grab the iPod, it can be the highlight of my day.

Simple task that I hate doing? Clipping my toenails. Don't get me wrong, I do it every couple of weeks, but I just don't like doing it.

My wife has clipped my toenails for the last ten years, not sure why, but she asked me once if I wanted her to, I said yes, and she's done it ever since.

-The drive to work during rush-hour
-Caving in to the demands of people who naturally "expect" things.
-watching soap operas, infomercials, game shows, many reality shows. I get sucked in then realize 25 minutes later how lame I am.
-Finding XL tall stuff that isn't Phat Farm or something that makes me look like Anthony Bourdain (v-neck big n tall).
-getting serious about cooking when my wife doesn't.
----Throwing stuff away if I haven't touched, used, seen, worn, or talked about owning in the last 8 months!

Folding shirts. I have racks and every shirt I own gets hung up. Tshirts and all.
Painting. Can't stand it.
Cleaning the garage. Mine is in tatters right now. I'm going to break down soon and do a "move everything out and put back what I need" cleaning day and get rid of half the **** out there.

Imagine how bad it would be if you actually had a dog!:rolleyes: Tee hee.
I hate taking down Christmas decorations. For years the bride and I have had a deal that I help put them up, but she takes them down when I'm not home. Works out well.

I did this over the past 2 weeks...Not 100% done, but both cars are back in now. It's sad when I literally have a 4 car garage that was twice the square footage as my last 3 car garage and had both vehicles in the drive. I felt bad for the trash man last week. ;)

I think it really depends on what kind of mood i'm in. Some days I dont mind doing things like dishes or laundry or taking the dog out, other days though, the thought of having to do those things makes me furious. :c
Don't know why, just does. I usually end up doing them anyways to keep the wife happy.
But the one thing I absolutely hate doing is having to put out a really good cigar.

Depending on where I am, I agree with you. If my dog takes a dump on the street, or on a path somewhere round a lake, fine. I've discovered that looking where you are going and avoiding dog mess isn't always possible.
I've had to argue that, in the middle of the woods, if your kid picks up dog cr@p and eats it, maybe it's your fault for not teaching your kid that picking up things in the middle of a wood, and eating them, isn't a good idea. I firmly believe it's not my fault for letting my dog sh!t in the woods.

Raking leaves in the fall, and raking the lawn in the spring. Getting under the house into the crawlspace to turn on the water for the outside hose bibs in the spring. I really should look into re-routing that somehow so I have the water shutoff inside of the house. Grocery shopping. Driving in rush hour traffic.
OK, I'm done. :D

I couldn't think of anything earlier. I'm in a bad mood this morning, so I thought of one...
Talking to my ex-wife. I always think "It cost me a small fortune so I'd never have to do this again, how's come I still have to talk to her?" So, admittedly, I'm already pissed when I see her name on caller ID. It probably doesn't make for a very good tone. :D
