The worst they can do is force the commons to vote three times on any piece of legislation, if they did that for everything that would reduce parliamentary action to a third and some things simply wouldn't get done.
Legislation blocked by the lords is often abandoned because of the time lost to other legislation.
You have a shockingly low opinion of your own judgement that you would prefer a government chosen by someone other than yourself.
