Why didn't you lubricate your doors and windows?

I'm lazy.
Ninja proof
I'm not doing it trough my back door, so there is no need for lub.
The squeaky hinge gets the grease. I actually do if I notice one is noisy. WD40 silicone lubricant, which is actually a lubricant unlike regular WD40. (Other products are available)
I already fit through without lube, thanks for the tip though.
Why should I make it easy for burglars to sneak in?
Oh shoot I forgot to do that literally ever.
I'm not sure how to do it. Seriously, the windows screech when I open and close them, but I've never taken the time to figure out how to disassemble them to clean and lube them. It's on my list of things I need to do. Also, I have two windows in my living room blocked off with panels, and I discovered last summer that one of them has a cracked pane, so I need to take care of that, too.
Doors are easy, and I take care of them so they don't squeak, and last year I repaired and painted the exterior door jambs.
EDIT: I searched and found a video on how to take apart my window, it's easy enough, once you know how.

I just use a spray oil (micro oil? idk) on the rails and door hinges and sometimes on the key hole (rarely), it may be a not good option, but I do once a year and it always works. But I'm not a technician.
All of the lubricant was made in the Untied States by scientologists
