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

Maybe... In the words of a brilliant author, Jerome K Jerome: A person can only be properly idle when they have a mountain of important work to get done!

In the words of one of the greatest philosophers of our time(Garfield)

I'm not lazy, I'm conserving energy.

Good one!
I actually have a poster above my table that's got a cartoon picture of a guy fast asleep at his table that's covered in work and it says:

"A train stops at a train station,
A bus stops at a bus station...

At my desk, I have a work station."

That somehow seems fitting

Never do something today if you can put it of tomorrow.

Never put off for tomorrow what you can get someone else to do today.

That's a good one!

I know. I use it often. It works.

I'll try it sometime.

It usually works best on little brothers who are at that age where they'll gladly do anything for you!

My only brother is older than me.

I guess you'd be the one that's done the running round for him then!

Nope! I plain refuse to run around for anybody!

Well, that sometimes works... But what about when you want them to run around for you?

Throw a tantrum?

Yeah, I guess that would work.

It doesn't actually.

So you're back at the spot where you've gotta run around!

Yeah, but I usually wait untill people start yelling at me.

Best thing to do when it comes to paperwork you don't really want to do, is put it aside. If it really is neede, someone will yell at you and you'll HAVE to do it straight away. Otherwise, if no one needs it, you would've just wasted your time doing it in the first place and it can stay undone.

Exactly!
