[quote=scaredyclassic]I view housecleaning as a form of exercise. Done with extreme speed, it is highly aerobic. My strategy over the years has been doing a lot of cleaning at high speed with fair to poor quality. I finish very quickly and do a ‘C” job. This irritates my wife and so, I broke down and will pay in the interest of matrimonial harmony. But let the record reflect that this was over my vigorous objection. Although it is nice how clean she gets the house. Not worth the money to me, but definitely to my wife. I go way too fast to get it that clean.
Also, doing the dishes can lead to enlightenment. See e.g. Mr natural does the dishes.

lol an ongoing conversation in our house, over a series of years.
On any day when my sons or I do the dishes and put them away:
Wife: (pulling a dish from the cabinet) “You call THAT clean??” (picking off a tiny speck of something from some crevice)
