The Art of Laziness

Things you will Relate to If You’re a Lazy Person Living in Denial.

A spring mattress, A bean bag, some dim lighting and a comfy pillow.Give these to a moderately lazy person and it’s heaven for them.  Let’s just put it this way: I think someone like me would happily stay in and sleep rather than go out and socialize on any given day because, well, its too hard to put your feet down on the floor and shuffle off to take a shower. It’s not as sad as it sounds actually. Sure, you miss out on a few stuff like having a toned ass, being clean and maybe all that Vitamin D.

But dear fellow house-bound thespians, nonetheless of what the haters say, we can scroll through life more easily than the normal non-lazy humans around us.

Here are a few facts that us slackers can relate to in our daily lives:

  1. Keeping a lifetime supply of deodorants and air-fresheners; O Nivea! your heavenly scent on my underarms on those mornings when it’s too tiring to go stand under that icy shower is the reason why I get up from bed. PS: For those proud masters out there, spraying deo on your doggy when a date comes over is NOT a good idea. Trust me.

2. Eating over the Sink; Who needs plates when you can devour that Nutella Sandwich leaning over                     your sink and watch those little crumbs fall to their deaths?

3. Owning more pair of underwear than Britney Spears; I swear to God, there’s not a bigger mood killer              than coming home to your bedroom and seeing that huge pile of dirty undies just sitting there                          watching you. So, what do you do? You shove them to a deep dark corner and order a dozen new                      ones from Zivame. Because as we all know from the big book of CouchPotato rules – Laundry is a big               NO NO.

4. Rolling around in your wheelie chair instead of walking; So, you’re in your room playing Call of                        Duty when you get that pop-up for 5 percent charge left. See, now normal people get up and plug                    that charger in. But do us Sloths do that? No Sir, We play Roller Chair Derby all the way to the plug                point and back. For those who don’t know the rules, The Floor Is Lava. And if its TOO far away, well                you know the saying- “If you can’t reach it, you don’t need it”.

5. Bedtime Ritual: Take off Pants. The End. Seriously Dude! Who has time to change into pyjamas                      and sleepmask and all that? And finding a clean pair of nightwear is just a whole other new task. So                just shrug out of those denims and fall onto you Zen place. Also known as bed.

Just as an end  note, I’d like to think of Mr Bill Gates who once said: ” I’ll always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job because he’ll find the easiest way to do it.”

Cheers 🙂
