I want a pet. I can't get a cat or a dog because of current living conditions. I don't like cleaning cages/litter/other-crap. You can guess my favorite activity from my profile pic, and I'd like to share this with my new little friend. Ideas??

Fish, and if it has to be a mammal i'd say gerbil (you only need to clean their cage once a month cause they eat their own crap).

Many rodents have primitive digestive tracts and their stool has to be re-consumed several times for them to get the full nutrition out of it. They can tell which poops are still good for another few go's.
Seriously though, don't buy an animal. Adopt one. 99% of commercial breeders couldn't care less whether the thing drops dead of an inherited cancer that all of them have, the day after you buy it. You don't want to give your money to fund what they are doing to little hamsters and shit. Meanwhile there are nice animals waiting to be adopted, that will be abandoned or euthanized if you don't take them. If you go to local animal shelters, pet shops, humane societies or veterinarians, or just look on craigslist, you can get a perfectly good animal for free, and you can feel good about yourself that you saved its life and didn't fund any unethical breeding practices.
If you don't like cleaning, well, you can potty-train rats, rabbits with a lot of effort, and to some extent, more intelligent birds, but birds and rabbits live forever. However, pretty much any animal you get is going to require some weekly or at least biweekly major expenditure of time cleaning up after it.
that's a cute little Slow Loris, lol.

I definately agree with Kléber. Adoption is always the way to go when getting pets.
Don't get birds. They crap everywhere..and you got to clean up feathers too. It all just creates one big crappy feathery mess!

I'd consider not getting a pet, honestly. Almost any pet is going to involve maintenance. At least make sure you have time to meet its needs. Not just the minimum. And if you don't like cleaning, all rodents require cleaning. Otherwise, they're living in their own filth. Pet stores let them, but pet stores aren't the epitome of how to treat animals well.
Snakes and lizards shed. It is probably easy to clean this, but I assume there cage requires cleaning for the same reason. Birds often never shut up. They also require cage cleaning, and that's going to be hard and require elbow grease, most likely.
If you get a pet that doesn't require much socialization and is easy, I'd recommend getting more according to the recommendations (google). Some animals aren't happy without X playmates or something. Make sure you check to see if the animals are prone to eating each other. A lot of people mix genders, sizes, breeds, of stuff and they kill each other. Same with fish. Some people also screw up feeding schedules and animals eat each other. They do crazy stuff.
Depending on finances, there are probably even people who could routinely clean your fish tank and automatic feeders+cleaners. That would be easy, I suspect. Just make sure the stupid fish have the right area and enough friends/don't eat each other.

Yeah, I was on the hunt for a non-dog non-cat pet at one time, and realized all the things that Dooga pointed out.
It's actually a bit easier in some respects to have a dog/cat in general, but obviously that doesn't help the OP.
Maybe a ferret or hedgehog?

A snake. You can't smoke pot with it, and if you try to, it will fucking kill you with poison. It might be horrible to be killed with poison, but when you're high, it's propably just awesome. :cool:

I hear hedgehogs fucking outside my house all the time. The noise is somewhere between a distressed baby and a strangled cat. Perhaps they haven't yet learned to be careful of the spines.

hermit crabs require a salt water aquarium which is a major pain to keep functional.
