The laziest person you know?

[Miss Chicken]

One of my friends is extremely lazy. For example she doesn't open her cutains in the morning becauseshe says it is too much bother. She rarely cooks anything that doesn't come straight out of a can. She comnplains about having to wheel her garbage out to the road etc.

Do you know any people who are very lazy? Are you very lazy yourself?

 

[Crusher Disciple]

Just to be clear, do cats count as "persons?"

 

[Ashu]

I think more than anything I want to be lazy, but I cant. I barely have time to sit down with my schedule so when I do get time to myself I not very inclined to do much of anything.

I do know lots of people who are for more lazy than I am though. Thankfully.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

One of my coworkers is lazy, insubordinate and rude. But the managers are afraid to fire him because his mother has threatened to sue for discrimination if they try.

^ If they have documentation and just cause for dissmissal, litigation shouldnt be an issue. She decides to sue, it's her financial loss.

 

[Miss Chicken]

I know of one library technician who refuses to cover books among other things. She also tries to get out of doing any shelving. the biggest problem is she works in a state school (where both tasks are common duties) and she has a permanent status. As a result she gets moved from one school to another until a librarian gets sick of her doing next to nothing and manages to transfer her to another school.

My roommate has 1-2 bowls of cereal for dinner on the nights she's not eating out. I guess I would call that lazy.

 

[Von_Steinwehr]

I have a friend addicted to World of Warcraft. He has moved a portable frig and his mattress next to his computer so he doesn't have to get up for food and can just fall into the floor when he gets tired. He has also gained 50-75 pounds because he eats McDonalds all the time. It is sad.

A person called Mark (one of flatmates)

If I was a Woman, you would be talking about me. I don't mind cooking, but having to prep and clean up after makes it "disturbing".

Plus I pay an extra 5 dollars a month to have some one walk up my drive way to get the trash cart.

And my closed curtains are part of my energy conservation plan.

On top of that. I have a cleaning service twice a week to dust, vacuum and scrub the tub/shower area.

Did I mention the yard service?

If it wasn't for the fact I can't drive and I walk the quarter mile up to three miles to the shopping district daily, I'd basically be a slug.

That's what I keep telling them. But they don't bloody listen! This guy happens to be deaf (or at least impaired; I can see he's got a hearing aid), so apparently that makes upper management so scared of his gaddam mother that they'd let him do anything. Bloody hell.

 

[auntiehill]

Me.

I'd explain why....but typing is hard wo

 

[TheBrew]

I am probably not the laziest, but I sure do a good job protecting my image of lazy!

 

[RoJoHen]

An exchange between two of my roommates (Nick and Bobby) and our dorm neighbor (Max).

Max: "Bobby, you are the laziest piece of shit I've ever met."
Nick: "You just met him last night!"
Max: "Yeah, and he's in the exact same spot on the futon where I left him!"
Bobby: "What the hell are you doing waking me up at this un-godly hour of the afternoon?"

 

[Daneel]

Probably myself.

But I prefer the term "laid-back".

 

[Tiberius Jim]

My ex. She had all kinds of excuses as to why she didn't have a job, hadn't finished HS or gotten her GED. Refered to spending the time to finally get her GED as "a waste of a day" and didn't have a driver's license, much less a car. At 20 years old.

It's one of the main reason I broke up with her. And amazingly, since the break up she's now gotten a job.

 

[Skywalker]

Probably my manager at work. Gets paid to sit around and do nothing, and whines when he actually does have to do something.

I've gotten pretty lazy myself in the last few years, which is something I hadn't really noticed until a few weeks ago. So I've kind of been trying to fix that.

Good lord, that exchange (except for the swearing) sounds like it could have come from a sitcom.

 

[Jim Steele]

I'm the laziest person I know, closely followed by my hetero lifemate and podcast co-host Richie. It's kinda why we only get one show done per month.

 

[Holdfast]

I'm exceptionally lazy & a great procrastinator. Of course, I play a game and rationalise it away by saying I'm just being "efficient".

For instance, whenever I'm doing anything requiring multi-tasking, I always do a quick mental critical path analysis to save me extra effort. Cooking, running errands, managing several issues at work, or whatever, I always try to minimise the effort involved.

I consider my laziness a real asset, actually, because it really does save me time & often money.

Of course, there are times when this trait goes past the sweet spot of the curve and actually become inefficient displacement activity but I think I do this less now than in the past.

 

[Philo]

I'm pretty damn lazy. Not only a procrastinator, but a perendinator as well. However, I've never met anybody as lazy as my roommate -- and you probably haven't either. I swear he's worn the same socks for weeks at a time (they become literally crispy), he uses pizza boxes as plates when the dishes are dirty, he leaves actual garbage in the sink, and he's created messes while cooking I didn't know were possible, but that's not the worst. I went into his room one time (whose door you can't open completely because it's so messy), and I found jars under his desk full of urine.

Urine.

I don't know, maybe it's some kind of weird fetish, because the bathroom is literally about eight feet away from his door.
