Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

Counter argument: A tidy looking room makes me happier. Time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time, ergo, making your bed is not wasted time.
If your house is the reflection of your mental state, then the other way around is also true.
I don't think your home is a reflection of your mental state......
looks at home, it is trash
Oh. Maybe you're right.
No, that is what having kids is like.
I understand the tidy looking bit, in the rest of my room you won't find dust, cobwebs, or dirty clothes. I just never make my bed. Most people I know think that is weird. Partners are generally unimpressed (too lazy to make his bed).
I won't try to change your mind, that would be hypocritical of me...you just have to find a partner who cares equally.
Or DOESN'T care equally.
I remember an ex got mad one time because I "never make the bed, but still get to enjoy it".
I said "What? Why do you keep making the bed?"
She said "because it looks nice!"
Ok.....
Care equally and doesn't care equally is the same.
1 =1 and -1=-1 it's still equal.
Ugh. Now we're getting MATH involved? Alright, hold on.....carry the 2.....adjust for inflation.....and done. 2+2=potato.
.....wait a second.
