Lazymism Revealed

A few years back, I used to carry a coffee mug around with me everywhere, which perfectly demonstrates my Lazymism. It was a gift from someone who worked in a doctor's office, and had recieved it from a random druggie sales rep. It was a Big Shiny Mug that kept the cheap coffee warm for hours on end. It had the giant word "LIVIAL" emblazoned on the front. I was too lazymistic to do a quick google to see what it meant. Unfortunately, one of my colleagues was not lazy enough, and dug deep to find out about the many unfortunate uses of said proud product. (I will not enlighten you here in hopes that you will be too lazy to google it yourself). He then proceeded to send an email to everyone on site with the subject "Livial Revealed" to ensure everyone could have a good laugh at my mug. You see it was my Lazymism that stopped me from averting this disaster. I was too lazy and optimistic - in thinking no one would ever bother to look up the brand name that I so proudly carried everywhere, meetings, lunch, forever displayed on my desk.

Lazymism can be an endearing quality, an innocent inaction, sitting back and thinking it'll all work out. By doing nothing about the problem it'll probably go away and might never even happen! Lazymism is the reason why, one morning this week, on finding a pale ribbon hanging from the tv bracket in my room, I used it to hold my jeans up - rather than delve deeper; ie actually looking through a wardrobe, to try and find a real belt. My lazymism allowed me to hope against hope as I strode around looking like I'd worn undies on the wrong side of the overclothes that people would think it was quirky, a new fashion. Not that I'm just a big weirdo.

But lazymism is a dangerous one - a little of it goes a long long way - too much will lead to the mess the world is in now. Ie if we all ignore all the problems long enough rather than trying to do something about them, just because it's easier, then they won't actually go away, and will probably just keep getting worser and worser. So there's my preachy Tommy Tiernan bit for today. Have a nice Lazymistic weekend, but not too much of it!!
