I always hated chores as a kid (pfft, who didn’t?)… One of the chores I didn’t care for much was washing my dad’s car. I forget whether I had to do it in order to get allowance or something like that, but I didn’t enjoy it at all. Maybe in part because I didn’t have a cool squirtgun hose like the one above. I’m...
