The Procrastination Thread

An easy format for procrastination confessionals. This
should be pinned. I will go first:

What should you be doing?
Composing a short paper for a morning class tomorrow.

What are you doing, other than pathologically postponing
the inevitable?

Creating worthless threads of dubious hilarity as a way of
self-flagellation.

How obscenely moronic and neurotic is it of you to
mournfully contemplate your situation rather than simply
doing what you should be doing?

8/10. I will most likely get away with it this time, causing
no long-term damage.

Finally, if your procrastination was a porn fetish, what
kind of porn fetish would it be?

Interracial gang-bangs.

Yeah.

What should you be doing?

Sleeping, it's 6:20AM and I was going to go job hunting one
of these days. I'm in no hurry though, so the answer is
''nothing really''.

What are you doing, other than pathologically postponing

the inevitable?


Posting on a couple of messageboards, downloading a .zip
file full of NES manual scans in .PDF format, and listening
to Minimal Compact.

It's 6:21AM so I lost track of what was being said somewhere
in the middle there.

I have a friend, writing a master about procastination among
master-writing-students. She has been working on it for five
years or something. It's so ironic, I don't know wether to
laugh or cry.

Yeah. But it's so sad. She is really a journalist, but
couldn't handle the deadlines. She never can get anything
done, or meet up at appointments at the right time. She's
been studying for ages (she's 45 now), and I find it very
hard to think of a job, where she will fit in.

get anything done in time either. i mean i always put
everything aside untill the last possible minute. it drives
me crazy but im always doing that..

I approve, and I think it's a timely reminder to do stuff.

What should you be doing?
Should be putting together a sales pitch presentation.

What are you doing, other than pathologically postponing

the inevitable?

Looking for threads about Analord I've not rattled off in
yet.

How obscenely moronic and neurotic is it of you to
mournfully contemplate your situation rather than simply
doing what you should be doing?

8/10. If I don't look lively by at least the end of this
month, I think I can say goodbye to any future as a
lightweight designer/multimedia developer. Which is so 1997
anyway.

Finally, if your procrastination was a porn fetish, what

kind of porn fetish would it be?

Glassed, frosted facials.

Well exactly. That there, I dare say, is the root of my
prolonged procrastination.

I have had to do scenario-pitches at school. I absolutely
hate it, trying "to sell the story". it's no fun, just shit.

What should you be doing?
working - designing a website, creating some banners,
drawing what a stupid flash demo about putting images on a
t-shirt should look like.

What are you doing, other than pathologically postponing
the inevitable?

Reading a book, drinking tea, reading and posting here,
drumming on a bucket found in the kitchen.

How obscenely moronic and neurotic is it of you to

Job sucks. I think i'm underpayed for what the boss demands,
and he is becoming closer to absolute stupidity as time
passes by. So, regarding all that, I think it's better to do
what I want than what he wants. Anyway, I will do his tasks
sooner or later.

Finally, if your procrastination was a porn fetish, what
kind of porn fetish would it be?

Maybe movies, with not hardcore porn.
