How lazy can you be?

Post by jfrey »

The other day the high e string broke on one of my guitars. Instead of putting new strings on, or going through the hassle of unplugging my guitar and getting a different one to play with, I just tuned the G string to F# and kept playing what I was before, playing the sections which stayed on EAD normally, then shifting the sections that went from A to e, to E to B. (Turn Soonest to the Sea, by Protest the Hero, is what I was playing)

Sometimes instead of shutting my alarm off in the morning I just go back to sleep. (My girlfriend wants to kill me for this)

I own shoes that have never been untied since the day I bought them.

My car has at least a dozen coffee travel mugs in it. I don't like to carry them around so I just buy a new one whenever I need one and then just leave it in my car.

When I write down directions to somewhere there will frequently be little more than a few shapes and arrows. I will inevitably have no idea what I meant to convey to myself when I look at them later.

Instead of getting better cooling equipment for my computer I just keep one side open and have a box fan sitting next to it. (The graphics card overheats otherwise when playing some graphically intense games)

I don't change clocks to match daylight saving adjustments - they're not right 6 months out of the year.

Haha, some of that sounds awfully familiar, especially the Daylights savings bit, my friends used to get pissed off leaving my house cause they'd be like... well better go... got be up really early and it's midnight and i'd be like... nah it's 1AM... you just lost an hour of sleep.

I do shut my alarm off atleast... I don't remember doing it but it doesn't keep waking me up... getting out of bed is not my done thing untill I wake up of my own accord.

I haven't changed strings in over a year... just cause... they're rusty as fuck but untill one breaks...

Many other lazy things... too lazy to type them.

This indeed.

Sometimes I'll drive to the end of my driveway to get the mail instead of walking. :facepalm:

I just slept ten hours, got up to pee, went back to bed, then grabbed my laptop from under my bed to go on ILF.

I do this, but I'm so lazy the radio is set to the first thing I can get reception on which happened to be Wisconsin Public Radio. Then I'll have really trippy dreams where somebody in the dream is saying what I'm hearing on the radio but we'll be on a sinking ship or something crazy like that and they'll be talking about the culinary history of carrots.

Also, I throw stuff in the passenger seat of my car and leave it there. Then, when I give somebody a ride I just throw it all into the back seat. Later when I'm driving alone and I want something, like tissues, I'll be pissed that they're not sitting in the seat next to me.

I'll take allergy or cold medicine so I can use the "do not drive or operate machinery" warning to get out of driving. I will also tell people I'll do something after I finish my song then immediately switch to music for a forgotten future or 45:33

Why don't you just use the normal paper cups? Then you don't have to buy anything...

I go on ILF rather than doing homework because I just don't wanna.
It's a problem.
