SPRING CLEANING MEGATHREAD
AKA Chores, the forums worst enemy
So spring is around the corner, and your parents are probably going to force you to clean the house cause "Its sthpwing cweaning" so let's discuss cleaning stuff and chores.
CHORES
Vacuum Cleaning
In my opinion, the easiest and funnest method of cleaning (and that really isn't saying much); the hoover is doing most of the work, all you need to do is move your arm back and forth (hurr hurr) and you get a nice clean floor. Marvelous!
Cleaning Dishes
For those unlucky few who don't have a dishwasher; cleaning dishes is loving terrible, there is usually a lot to do and it feels gross having to scrape Uncle Bobby's scraps of tomato sauce off of the plates while your hands get all wrinkly from the soapy water. Ew.
Putting things away
Not terrible but not that great either; it always seems daunting when you look at your room covered in all your belongings (games, books, carrots etc.), but it usually only takes half an hour, especially when you have someone to give you a hand. I always get dizzy when I bend down to pick stuff up though, so it's kind of hard when I have to keep sitting down to get my bearings back.
Selling things
Being able to make money and more space is a promising prospect, but this can be deceiving as you're usually selling your old stuff no body wants, plus you have to sit around all day in these dull parking lots. You might as well just throw it all away.
Tips for cleaning
Seeing as most of you are procrastinating doing something right now, here's some tips for making cleaning easier to do:
- Listen to some music while you clean; a particular favorite of mine to listen to while doing chores is C418's Minecraft - Volume Alpha, but you can choose anything you want.
- Get some other people to help you clean up, you will probably get it done twice as fast.
- Think of how nice it will be to have a clean house and not have that nagging feeling to do stuff while you are loveing your gf or playing TF2 or something like that.
- Have short breaks after doing things; making a cup of tea and browsing the forums quickly is a good thing to do, but make sure it's a short break, not a break of 4 hours where you complete rooster of Doody and eat three pizzas or whatever you weirdos do.
Now go and make your parents/roommate/gf/bf/cat/enderman proud with your cleaning abilities!
