It's chilly, dp and I discuss lighting first fire of the season. He huffs n puffs around, moans, grunts that his knees hurt, the wood isn't burning well etc. I tell him not to drown it in paper (he has form) to which he says " I know you're trying to help but.." ....anyway more huffing n puffing and gives up. I say I'll have a go.....kneel at hearth to find......he's not cleaned ANY of last season's ash out!? Just piled wood paper coal on top and WONDERS WHY IT WON'T WORK!? Fire needs air!? I just say....nothing....fetch the ash bin...proceed to clean, make roaring fire....ahhhhh. fetches well earned glass of wine
Why are they such lazy twats?! Like forcing more stuff in bin instead of empyting. Leaving empty shampoo bottles in sink instead of putting in recycle bin...I could go on. And if we say anything......We're nagging! Lol.
I just don't get it!!!? Examples of your dps fuckwittery laziness please!!!

My husband is too bad but there are little things he can be lazy about which annoy me.
I asked him to pull the bed out this week and clean it as it was dusty and our dd had also dropped a couple of things down there. He went up to do it and was done in about 5 mins and also told me had vacuumed all upstairs... he couldn't have vacuumed everywhere well as there were still bits on the carpet. Also he had just quickly vacuumed behind the bed and not done the rest as that would mean moving everything out.
He also doesn't empty the bathroom bin.

My DH is definitely not lazy. I am, he's not. My dad wasn't either.

My dh isnt lazy, nor is ds.
I really despair at sexist shit like this disguised as light hearted.
