I mean I was down on the floor, scrubbing the grout and wiping the wall behind the toilet. The stuff that normally gets missed.

Feels good.

Awesome! Whenever I get stressed I like to clean. And I tend to get really detailed like you describe. But I think my housemates started intentionally stressing me out whenever they wanted something cleaned. So I no longer tell that to people IRL.

Back in my younger days I knew a girl who liked to smoke weed and clean. I would invite her over, smoke s bowl, and then an hour or two later my room, car, kitchen whatever would be clean. It was awesome. Haven’t smoked or talked to her in years though…

I did the same only due to a broken toilet.

I typically start by deep cleaning each area when something breaks.

It takes a bit longer, but it’s nicer to repair something in a really clean space.

Edit: And for those familiar with toilet repairs - yes, I did spend substantially more time on the cleaning than the repair.

I can repair a toilet in general but I draw the line at plumbing work. I can or can quickly learn to do anything myself but I just hate plumbing.

Cleaning my own toilet is why I sit to pee at home.

Dull Men's Club

Create post

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men’s Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an “Africa, by Toto” option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.
