The real answer :

"What fucking mess? I go to work all day and then I have to come home and look for clothes lying around or pots to wash? Fuck that"

A slightly more subtle reply would be :

"I don't know your system. Has the dishwasher finished or is it half loaded? Is stuff in the washing basket on the stairs on the way up or down? What's an iron and that large board thing you use with it?"

By far the best answer is :

"But you do stuff so much better than me. I can't iron like you - it's really hard work and you deserve a medal for it. Tell you what, shall we get you one of those cordless irons to make it easier? Let's get a video and a curry eh? "
