Making your bed every day is useless.

Nobody's gonna see it and you can't use it without messing it up.

    I used to think that way, and then in the past year I just changed. Now I make my bed every morning and I'm happier. I don't know why.

    I think it is just the clearest indicator that I've transitioned from aging to old. I made it 55 years thinking making the bed was a waste of time, but in my 56th year my attitude suddenly and without warning flipped.

    Ah young one I was once like you until I realised, that by not making the bed, your fitted sheet ends up absorbing more dust and moisture during the day and you have to change them more frequently. For truly optimal laziness it's best to at least throw the quilt over.

    How and why is your bed absorbing moisture during the day? I get if you're saying sweat from sleeping in it, but otherwise I'm confused.

    Personally, I use a very thin, non-fitted sheet as my blanket, so I don't think any of the bed is really more or less impacted than others on having stuff piled on top of it.

    I think humidity of your climate plays a role in this between regions.

    I was fully in the “don’t make your bed, let it air out” camp, then I realized the dogs slept on the unmade bed during the day and I inhaled dog hair at night. I now make the bed, though I am constitutionally against it.
