Out of interest, where do you draw the line between what is vane and what is simply taking care of something you're invested in and you value?

Not showering saves water - such a waste of water and energy over a dumb little vanity project.

As someone mentioned, I water very little but I do it at the correct times and the amount is controlled (underground sprinklers). Further I use a mix of natural and regular fertilizer twice a year. I mow with a rechargeable mower. I think I'm doing my part while still being able to enjoy my property.

Stop being so lazy and put some effort in. It's not difficult. As others have mentioned, there are alternatives.

Having a nice monoculture high-need grass lawn is a vanity project. If we’re talking lazy, that’s one step above the laziness of doing nothing at all. Congrats on putting zero thought and effort in it, you push a mower around and turn on your sprinkler, hold the applause.

You could take care of it in a way that’s lower maintenance and resource intensive and friendlier to pollinators and other animals. Different grass species, clover, flowers, more interesting landscaping elements.

Comparing it to showering? That’s dumb and you should feel bad.
