    If I could hold down a button to clean my shower you bet your ass I would.

    The lack of a sparkle and a ding when you finish cleaning something is a major mark against real life cleaning, as well.

      Real life also has to much frustrating detail Like, are you realy ever done with cleaning? Not to mention the sweating and wet hands mechanics, yuck!

      I like making surfaces in my home shiny, like my microwave or shower. Would you find a sense of accomplishment cleaning something small like your sink and admiring it? Sometimes I like the squeaky sounds when I scrub a surface… Kind of soothing.

      I find if I just focus on a little part at a time, the task seems less daunting and it makes it easier to get started.

      As is the lack of the shower cleaning itself and getting rid of the tiny bits that you missed along the way when you’re basically done.

      As an aside, I’ve heard an internet rumor that if you spray paint a dong beside a pot hole, the city will come fill it (correctly) much faster.

        In general I totally agree… well if it were a real power washer, yeah. But it’s electric for one, and two we don’t have a large amount of flow available so it’s safe with the larger nozzles. Now I wouldn’t put the 0° nozzle on it and point it at my toe, that would be bad.

          i have always been taught that its better to he safe with pressure… anything.

          if you want nightmare fuel, (to be extremely clear, this is gore, and very much not safe for work; assuming you’re not working at an ER, or hospital). search up “Degloved hand” or “Degloved foot”. those images are why I wear steel toed boots with pressure washers, and thick kevlar gloves when working on high pressure water lines. I do not want to lose a toe, or a finger, ever.

            I remember when Jimmy Fallon got his wedding ring caught on a table and de-gloved his finger (ring avulsion). I figured I knew what that meant but googled it anyways. Do NOT google that! I’m not squeamish but that made my backside pucker a little.

        Cleaning blood from the swimming pools after draining them was a bit bizarre but overall great game.

    Me cleaning my house makes me sweaty, dirty, and tired; not to mention it makes me have to put out my trash more often. Me playing a simulator allows me to be comfortable and not exert myself.

    Me finding Power Wash Simulator on GamePass a week after starting Adderall

    Meanwhile my wife yelling at me to power wash the deck and my only retort is “uhh water ban”.
