Great post teech and the universe has always helped me to put things into perspective. Considering the universe is approximately 93 billion light-years across and if we could travel at the speed of light we could probably cover 15 on a round trip, it seems hardly worth worrying about whose turn it is to do washing up.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

My chemistry Professor showed us this video in class the other day. Its kind of lame but funny and informational at the same time, and this seems like an appropriate conversation to share this in:
