I don't want to be lazy anymore

[amyzzz]

Would anyone else be interested if I started a social group for lazy people who want to stop being lazy? I need to get stuff done, but I procrastinate, and it's a vicious cycle that's ruining my life. :thu

We could motivate each other.

Or just post cats. Whatevs.

[miscorrections]

I find being on this board has a lot to do with procrastination and laziness. Think how productive we all would be if we just quit here.

[TomAz]

Lazy people don't show initiative.

[amyzzz]

I don't mind being lazy at work so much-- I only post when I'm at work. Well, usually.

[SoulDischarge]

I've been cleaning my room all afternoon (between posts) and just dragged a dresser up a flight of stairs by myself on my own intiative, so at this moment, I don't really qualify. But in general, I'm one of the laziest, most unmotivated bastards around. How does this work? Do the laziest people get the highest offices? Are you allowed to join if you make the effort to try to join?

[obzen]

post when I'm at work.

:thu

[Dr. Lufs-al-ot]

first step into not being so lazy: make me a sammich.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

i'm actually trying to teach myself how to be lazy. I'm constantly on the go, need to slooooooooooooooooooow dooooooowwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnn

[amyzzz]

Officers would be too much work. It would just be a place to say "hey I cleaned the bathroom today instead of watching 6 hours of House on Saturday." Or at the VERY least "I cleaned the bathroom BEFORE I watched 6 hours of House on Saturday."

[chairmenmeow47]

i'm too lazy to come up with an adequate response to this.

[amyzzz]

If you're out of work, you could also say "I wrote out a new resume and sent it to 20 companies today." --stuff like that that needs to get done but you're putting off.

This is very true. I find my most productive times are when I intentionally don't come to the board when I want to.

Or at the VERY least "I cleaned the bathroom BEFORE I watched 6 hours of House on Saturday."

If you watch 6 hours of the same show on a Saturday, you are definitely lazy.

I think about it. I also think about the day when I go to try on my jeans and find my ass has enlarged from sitting here and they won't fit. I've even thought of having suffacated take the power cord away from my PC... followed by the thought of wrapping it around his neck if he does...
Lazy people don't show initiative.
Oh, please...I make it a point to look for a job before I come here to squat and nest for the day!
I don't mind being lazy at work so much-- I only post when I'm at work. Well, usually.
And I hope to find a job just like Amyzzz!

[amyzzz]

I do that about every weekend.

edit: watch a bunch of the same TV show I mean

[TomAz]

I don't feel like joining today. maybe tomorrow.

[Hannahrain]

I'm moving on Sunday and I haven't done a damn thing other than packing up my kitchen things.

[amyzzz]

Maybe you could box up some clothes today.

[sonofhal]

I'm so lazy, i may not even finish this se

[Derekx]

It's too fucking hot to do anything.

[BROKENDOLL]

If you're out of work, you could also say "I wrote out a new resume and sent it to 20 companies today." --stuff like that that needs to get done but you're putting off.
You mean like paying my phonebill online at 3am becasue I was busy tending to my nest all day?

This is very true. I find my most productive times are when I intentionally don't come to the board when I want to.

Now wait a fucking minute! WHO, INTENTIONALLY CAN AVOID COMING HERE FOR PERIODS LONGER THAN SAY 8 HOURS EACH DAY?

[Hannahrain]

Maybe you could box up some clothes today.

I feel like you might do well with this. (http://www.43folders.com/about) It's never actually helped me get anything done, but it's nice to know it's there. Plus I have a crush on Merlin Mann.

[BROKENDOLL]

Hannahrain isn't lazy...she just has no coffee in order to get motivated...

[amyzzz]

Thank you, Hannah.

[BROKENDOLL]

It's too fucking hot to do anything.
And this too! It is offically 110* right now in Indio, Ca....@#!$%&*!!!

[amyzzz]

You don't have AC?

[TomAz]

haha, amy's too lazy to type out 'air conditioning'

[SoulDischarge]

She could be talking about Anal Cunt. You know what they say about assumptions.

[Hannahrain]

I exaggerated, actually. I haven't done anything for the past few days. Today, though, I started an account with my new power company, paid next month's rent, applied for six months of temporary health insurance, set up my new internet service, ordered various and sundry computer-related pieces to make newer things work with older things, and changed my voter registration. All to avoid doing the actual physical job of packing things up and throwing things out. Sometimes laziness begets productivity.

LOL Silly me for aiming to prove a point that I live 3 miles south of Hell to people who live 3 miles north of it!

Shit. And this is without coffee? Damn, I'll be lucky to make it to the mailbox!

[marooko]

I'm not sure if I wanna join or not.

[Bud Luster]

smoke less weed...

[marooko]

too lazy.

[captncrzy]

I like being lazy.

Sleeping is giving in? Bull-fucking-shit

I would be interested. I'm productive in spurts then a sloth in others. It would be nice to discuss how to even it out.

[sames44]

I don't mind being lazy at work so much--

my boss shut off half of our lights this afternoon due to the threat of a brownout. the entire office is lazy.

Ok, here it is for any takers:
http://www.coachella.com/forum/group.php?groupid=28

You can only view what is being said if you are a member.

[Dr. Lufs-al-ot]

jeez you really are lazy, im still waiting on that sammich

:rolleyes

[JebusLives]

I'm a natural procrastinator who also smokes too much weed. Usually once the chores build up to a critical mass, I "quit" for a few weeks and get my shit in order. But sometimes I "quit" and continue being lazy, only sober and irritable as well.

[amyzzz]

I can make you a grilled cheese sammich or a tuna sammich.

[BROKENDOLL]

I finally opened that chubby letter I got earlier today and I'm relieved to say I no longer have to stress and worry when I'm being lazy because I won my appeal against the unemployment descision that was made almost 5 months ago! Now I atleast make some money for being lazy!

[BlackSwan]

I can make you a grilled cheese sammich or a tuna sammich.

Sounds like you can also make a tuna melt.

[Dr. Lufs-al-ot]

I can make you a grilled cheese sammich or a tuna sammich.

grilled cheese please :)

[Courtney]

I was too lazy to respond to this thread until now. I'm also too lazy to figure out how to become a member of that social group.

This LeechBlock (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4476) tool is great for folks who find the board, or any other website, to be a time drain. You can have Firefox block certain websites for you at certain times of the day. So, for example, I could set it so that I'm only allowed to view the board for 10 minutes each hour. Or I could set it so that I'm only allowed to view the board between 5pm and 8pm on Mondays through Fridays.

[Courtney]

THINGS I AM GOING TO DO TODAY SO THAT I AM NOT LAZY:

walk the dog
catch up on e-mail
catch up on RSS feed subscriptions
clean the bedroom
clean the bathroom
do laundry
make carrot salad
finish writing Birk article
pack gym bag for Monday

BONUS POINTS IF I'M FEELING REALLY REALLY UNLAZY:

drop off dry cleaning
work on quant GMAT prep book
take broken ipod to apple store
finish last week's Economist
e-mail my editor to pitch ideas

[SoulDischarge]

That's one ambitious Sunday.

[Courtney]

To be fair, I already finished doing the top three earlier this morning. I just put them on the list because I like crossing things off.

[Jon Blazed]

don't you mean lazzzy?

[whynotsmile99]

i need to join this.

it's now 1:37 in Los Angeles.

So far I have completed the following:

wake up
take a leak
eat some leftovers from last night
1 load of laundry

another eventful day

Can you please delete this post Courtney? I'm begging you! If suffacated sees this, I'm doomed! Doomed, I tell ya! I just know he'll do it while I'm sleeping or some shit, and when I go to sign on, the glitch will undoubtedly cause me to go into the "Dani Avatar Mode," followed by the System Restore Method! Please???

[Astrid]

im too lazy to get out of my bed to feed myself.

though i was surprisingly unlazy this morning, i helped my brother pack, clean, and move out of his disgusting shit hole room.

i wish someone would bring me a pizza to my mouth :(

Considering two of those were computer oriented and she's still here posting, I bet the odds 10-1 she doesn't make it to the bathroom... of course, if that's the case, she'll have to do laundry, huh?

To be fair, I already finished doing the top three earlier this morning. I just put them on the list because I like crossing things off.
I've done this before. As a matter of fact, suffacated used to give me a hard time because I would get into making an elaborate "Things to Do" list, complete with artwork and custom lettering. He claimed that by the time I perfected my list for the day, it was time to start the next day's list! (He was pretty much spot on, but atleast to me it looked like I had done something! LOL)

On a side note...Seeing as I was "un-lazy" until about 4:30 am today,:rolleyes I have set aside an ample amount of time to replenish and restore myself with energy by either sitting in my t-shirt and underwear until atleast 4:30pm...Or, quite possibly plugging myself into the mattress and hooking my head up to the pillow...Not sure yet...

[marooko]

major lazy day. i havent even gone to run my RC car yet, and thats fun. but im gonna go now though. after a bowl.

but you also have the ability to turn it off.

[SoulDischarge]

What would be clever is if they had an option where you have to solve some complex puzzle in order to turn it off.

[TheWatcher]

Officers would be too much work. It would just be a place to say "hey I cleaned the bathroom today instead of watching 6 hours of House on Saturday." Or at the VERY least "I cleaned the bathroom BEFORE I watched 6 hours of House on Saturday."

Hmmm... I WAS watching 6 hours of House on Saturday.

Spooky.

:eek:

[feather]

Haha.

[Courtney]

I didn't do so badly.

good job, Courtney! I picked a bad time to post this thread. I had too much to take care of before the weekend to get other stuff done. I will do better this week.

[SDsoldier7]

not me. lazy today. feels good.

[shakermaker113]

I should be packing to move in two days. I'd much rather be sat on the internet waiting for other people to post things.
