Turning off unused utilities should be a universal human quality. I could go on a dad rant, but I'll spare you all. On second thought...
Lights: you can't see anything in a room you're not in.
Heat: we're not heating the outdoors. Put on clothes.
Cooling: we're not cooling the outdoors. Take off your clothes.
Water: we don't heat water just for the drain.
Refrigerator: keep it closed.
Laundry: wearing or using something doesn't mean it's dirty.
Showers: anything longer than 20 minutes is like shaking it 3 times. Hang your towel. If your towel is dirty, you aren't showering.
Food: take what you can eat. Eat what you can. Be ready to eat if you say you're hungry.
Cleaning: everytime you get up, take something with you. If you sat down with something, stand up with it.
In general: you all suck. Stop sucking so hard.
This philosophy is all well and good. Efficiency is great! Just make sure not everyone in your surrounding thinks of you as a miserable person to be avoided. Don't sacrifice a good existence to save pennies. Educate yourself on what is actually effectfull in saving money before demanding it of the people you love. Explain it to them. Never shout at them. Make damn sure your spouse have the same philosophy before implementing it.
Quiet please. I'm trying to shout at my family. If I pause they may interject, and then I will have to explain further to them why they suck so hard.
