Yardwork
Yardwork is one of the most pointless tasks/chores that I do at home. I don't mind mowing the lawn or setting the sprinklers but there is one thing that will never make sense to me. And this is why my mother insists on having a green yard. It's not like anyone drives by and says "Wow, they don't have any dandelions in their yard." In fact, people only notice the yards that are pure yellow. So, since the flowers are practically impossible to get rid of, why make your children work for hours every day for 3-4 months just to live a dream that no one but you cares about?
Oh, and anyone who can use all of the following words in two sentences gets a prize: flavour, favour, favourite, colour, humour, centre, metre, litre. Adding prefixes like "milli-", "kilo-", etc. on "metre" and litre" is accepted. The closest I got with one sentence was "Why don't you do yourself a favour and move a few kilometres to the centre of your favourite town."
