h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

All that fooling of doctors and suchlike sounds like a lot of effort to me. Couldn't you just arrange to be hit on the head with, say, a big hammer?

"Working" for a living is not necessarily as bad as it sounds. In my experience, all you have to do is spread a few papers on your desk, then you can carry on the noble art of laziness by resting your chin thoughtfully on your hand and pretending to read the papers*, whilst actually doing nothing at all.

*Important: "papers" as in work-related documents, not "paper" as in newspaper - this doesn't work.

D'oh! I've toned it down a bit but I'm still unsure, It's either too bright or too dark. I though I had it then after my exam I logged on at a different computer and it's too dark. AAAAAARGH. I'm not even sure if the red is the right choice, hmm oh well.

Ultimatly the lazier option to becoming comatose, but it hurts!

You don't realy want to be in a coma, just to get the benifits.

The problem with comas is that people (hospital people) come along and exercise you while you're not there. I think they ought to have those medic-alert bracelets that say "go away, I'm busy!"

Maybe you should have the words "Do Not Disturb" tattooed on your forehead, just in case...

Imagine a world in which everyone has a "Do Not Disturb" tattoo inscribed at birth.

Frankly, it's too much effort to imagine it. Can someone draw me a picture?

How's that? As you can tell, the surgeons had to cut his head open to see what might be causing this coma, but they did get someone to stitch him back up afterwards

Doh, they took a carriage return out. My picture is ruined!

Still, that's a nice job on a difficult subject Jim the... That looks like a lot of effort though. You're not merely pretending to be lazy I hope.

Yes, a fine effort... of course, a true laziness expert would have got someone else to do it and then taken the credit, so perhaps that's what happened?

Ahhhh, I'm back after TWO days of being lazy and not bothering to get to a computer. Instead I hired someone who is far too active for their own good. So, what did I miss? Ooooo, he drew a picture - must have taken a while. Still, at least it wasn't me, eh?

We are... which is to say, people in Southern Ontario are presently experiencing Weather Assisted Laziness. The temperature all week has been hovering around 30C, and muggy as a soup kitchen.

How strange... we are also experiencing W.A.L. in Scotland, but it's more of the "I can't be arsed going out, it's raining" variety.

That's the spirit!

Hmph, I'm back after 2 weeks of not being lazy. Still I'm clinging to the long term lazy aspect of doing the work and reaping the rewards later.

A black belt would defer the work and "borrow" the rewards later.

Reaping looks like hard work to me. I suggest you get someone else to do that, and just have the rewards delivered to your door in a nicely-harvested bundle.
