When chores are done halfway and abandoned.
Dishes done but the countertop left a mess. Cat litterboxes cleaned but the floor still covered in bits of litter. The vacuum hauled out and one carpet vacuumed, but not the stairs, and the hardwood floors not swept. Front lawn mowed but not the back or sides, and the perennials left all weedy and nasty.
Also, "I'm gonna do it...later." And then it never gets done.
The concept of time sensitivity, as in, if you're gonna rototill my carrot bed, it MUST be done by the first week of May. Otherwise, I will do it myself or hire it done. Then when I tell Himself that it's too late, no carrots this year for us, he gets all mad as if it's MY fault that the growing season is a short five months in New England.
Invisible bushes and trees. If he thinks the mower will survive cutting it down, he doesn't care how much I paid for it, it's a weed.
