Laziest man ever?

[Hampshire]

I’m lazy when I’m lovin’, I’m lazy when I play
I’m lazy with my girlfriend a thousand times a day
I’m lazy when I’m speaking, I’m lazy when I walk
I’m lazy when I’m dancin’ and I’m lazy when I talk

I heard of this Lewbowski fella, he calls himself ‘the Dude’. Quite possibly the laziest man in all of Los Angeles County, which would place him high in the running for laziest worldwide.

Lebowski was a mere amateur compared to this guy. Great flick, too.

I also must contest Jerome K. Jerome’s quote : to best enjoy slacking, it is not necessary that one have a lot of work to do. However, it’s much better when someone within eyesight is intensely busy, the most backbreaking the labor the better. As long as it’s not too noisy.

Could somebody spoil this thread for me? I just couldn’t get around to reading it.

Supposedly, this guy, Thompson went to bed at the age of 11 and didn’t leave for 29 years. His mother, who had been taking care of him fell ill and had to be taken to the infirmary. Left to himself, he tried to get up and get dressed but didn’t fit in his 11 year-old’s clothes. Neighbours came to help him get dressed. When they were done he was so tired he too was taken to the infirmary, by ambulance. His mother got better and they both went back home. Doctors tried to cure his “lethargy” by administering " irritating plasters" and electric shocks to no avail. At the time the article was written, he was back in bed, however, motivated by the sights of the outside world he caught on his trip to the infirmary, he said he would make efforts to sleep less.

I would say that both the book and the film are well worth your time.

Thanks, but I’m not gonna bother. Maybe someday.

Absolutely not. This sentence in a post of mine:

@BorgHunter

Your average creative loafer won’t be able to get their mass that high.

was not intentional. Any resemblance to actual creative loafers, living or dead, is purely coincidental.

@BorgHunter

People that obese almost always have some sort of malfunction in their endocrine systems which cause them to put on that much weight. Your average creative loafer won’t be able to get their mass that high.

I’m too lazy to look it up, but I could see a regular person getting that big. Have you heard the amounts of food those guys tuck away? I’ve gained 100 pounds in a year while still being ambulatory so if I gave up all moving around and had someone bring me huge amounts of food a day?

This is Picker’s mom. He’s sleeping and I don’t want to wake him, but I’m sure he’d want me to type this for him.

Well, he did write, on another occasion, “I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.”

I just grunt and let my wife take care of it.
