I am so not a menial labor kinda guy, but it's a rare pleasure of mine. As in, I'd pay someone to wipe my ass if it was socially acceptable. Inherent in cleaning a simple gun is order, accomplishment, pride, and simplicity. It requires your attention, but not so much effort as to be stressful. I suspect it's how I'd feel about working on cars if I didn't have a job and family keeping me busy. I actually get the same way about sweeping my sidewalk after yard work. I would never do that shit inside my house, but damn if sweeping up grass isn't therapeutic.
It's a fine line though. If something takes longer than I want it, I get really annoyed fast.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
