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.

Laundry, specifically folding it. I have ADHD so my brain makes it out to be a much bigger task than it actually is. I hate it so so much.

I dated a girl who tossed underwear, socks, athletic pants, "house shirts", etc haphazardly into drawers. Reasoning was, doesnt matter if they wrinkle. She only hung up her shirts and whatnot. No folding.

Total game changer. Laundry is now the easiest chore I do.

I sort of do this, but it’s not super haphazard because otherwise the drawer doesn’t fit everything. So there is still folding involved. I should simplify my wardrobe…

I have a steam iron. If my tshirt needs to be wrinkle free, I can give it a quick steam day of.
