I knew a couple that started playing Puzzle Bobble to do the dishes, even though the woman in the couple was not at all a gamer.

She turned out to be a fucking savant at that game and it led to at least 3 smashed controllers and their relationship was never the same.

laundry isn't a time consuming task, unless you have to go to a laundromat

you load the washing in like 30s and then turn it on and come back an hour later, and unload it.

i guess folding clothes up to put away takes some time, but it's minutes, not hours
