Ask HN: Why does a busy man build a shed?
It's not even necessary. The practice is just a testament to the fact that some people find solace and comfort in superficial busywork.

I'm inclined to agree, but when I moved in with my girlfriend that changed. My girlfriend is one of those people who finds fulfillment in busywork. She likes a made bed.
So now I find meaning in making the bed, because she likes it made.

I've heard a single good argument for making beds: insects. But I don't care and still don't make mine :)
