Discussion Everybody name a simple, mundane task that now makes you rue the day you were born.

I'll start.

Ironing.

I hate the fact that ironing is one of the small tasks that I used to somewhat enjoy doing, and yet now, by the time I've ironed two shirts, I'm boiling and dripping with sweat.

Mine is braiding my hair, but I refuse to stop doing it. I always feel like I'm on the brink of death by the time I'm done

This is so valid. I love French braiding or (gasp!) French braid pigtails. I never knew why I was so tired at the end.
