Have a self-cleaning kitchen, where dishes, pots, and pans wash and put themselves away, but you have to manually fold and put away all laundry for the rest of your life or have a self-folding and putting away laundry system, where your clothes are always neatly folded and in your drawers, but you have to scrub and wash all dishes, pots, and pans by hand for the rest of your life.

The kitchen, no question. I’ve actually gotten better about folding my laundry as soon as it comes out of the dryer, but other than excessive wrinkles I also don’t care much about it.

The kitchen is a daily task; the laundry is a weekly task. Eliminating the daily task frees up much more time than eliminating the weekly task.

See I’m the opposite, folding clothes makes my back hurt from all the bending over but I don’t mind cleaning the kitchen and dishes even if I do procrastinate about it sometimes

You two either need to be roommates or get married. The choice is yours

I don’t understand where all this bending comes from that can make your back hurt. I fold my laundry on my bed for a large flat surface and it’s high enough I don’t really need to bend.

Self cleaning dishes without a doubt

Question: do I have to actually put my clothes away? Because I don’t usually do that now..

I’d take the kitchen anyway. Even if I have to actually put my clothes away, that entails hanging them, which is easy enough. I don’t fold clothes ever.

Plus between cats and cooking, I make a lot more food dishes than I use clothes on a daily basis.

Clothes are put away

Surely the first option should include no electric washer/dryer since the second option includes no dishwasher.

Yeah, folding laundry is way less work than washing dishes by hand. Washing laundry by hand though...

Yeah, that would change my answer big time. If I have to I can get away with minimal cooking. Every time I try no clothes people get snippy. /s

Definitely the kitchen! Folding away laundry is easy peasy compared to that.

Oh, kitchen. I love cooking and baking and doing the dishes is a nightmare and getting someone else to do the dishes has only sort of helped and I still do a lot of the dishes.

I'd be able to make very complicated dishes and not worry about having to beg for help with the dishes.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 month ago

I hang my clothes. I'm unclear on where that leaves me.

If the spirit of the question is just which chore I prefer, I go with self-cleaning kitchen any day. I'll cook so much complicated shit...
