Mine is washing dishes.

If left to my own devices, I will let dishes collect for a week in my kitchen sink.

Fortunately, I have a dishwasher. And a wife, but she doesn't enjoy doing dishes either, but at least it's a shared misery.

Yea doing dishes is the worst. Sometimes after being stuffed I just want to chill but I’m just making matters worse since it’s harder to clean if it dried already. I also have a dish washer but not everything can go inside, like pans and such. This means they are constantly dirty and in the sink until I need them again (basically) lol.

Dishes and pans with dried on crud are the pits.

I always try to soak everything before throwing them in the dishwasher, and even then it takes a pre-scrub to make sure they come out clean.

Huh, whaddya mean? Pans go in the dishwasher just fine. Even nonstick stuff, these days.

edit: Unless you mean cast iron or carbon steel can't go in the dishwasher, yeah I get that!

I had the experience that the non stick coating is wearing fast if I do that. But tbh i didnt try in the last 10 years.
