I mean I certainly agreed with the sentiment, but this is largely describing dishwashers, washing machines, and dryers, which were invented some time ago.

Part of the reason these take time is that a lot of folks are resource conscious (as am I). So we want the dishwasher to be efficiently loaded, the clothes to be dried on a clothesline if possible, the white/colors to be separated (increasea the longevity of the clothes), etc. Sacrificing all of these things makes these chores really very quii, if you can afford to have them all in your home.

And in fact, the cost of these things is relatively low


in my high COL area, it's not that people can't afford these things, it's that they can't afford a place big enough to accommodate them. Which is its own issue altogether...

Please don't fix the quii typo. Instead, could you define it, and then submit it to Urban Dictionary? Because that's an awesome word!

No; as the person who spotted the typo, it is your sacred duty to define quii.

But I don't know what you meant! lol

And I'm not smart enough. So I'm passing on as FFA.
