I'm convinced that my boyfriend is intentionally screwing up any chores involving cleaning so that I'll take over. His mom has always been a bit of a mother hen, so I'm working against 30ish years of that (e.g. she would come over to his house and clean it whilie he was at work), but surely no one can be this bad at cleaning.
Last night, for instance, I asked him to vacuum a rug. A simple, 10x12 rug. An easy vacuum, one where you can easily see the lines where you've vacuumed and the areas you haven't. All he had to do was go in a straight line. But I swear he performed his task like an epileptic who had to pee - he was all over the place, missing substantial hunks of cat hair.
I assume all you men do this to get out of cleaning?
