davidg Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Following up from the news that being fat is now classed as a disability should the same thing be true of lazyness? Clearing out my parents attic a couple of months back I came across some old school reports. Same thing year after year: David is lazy He fails to apply himself Quickly becomes bored with any task given to him Could do so much better if only he WORKED!!!! etc etc. As if proof were needed I've been a member of HPC longer than Bloo Loo but have only posted 2770 times compared to his 546,034 posts. Well four decades on and I can see that this was a disability that stopped me climbing the greasy corporate pole to middle management by working impossibly long hours in some dead end job. Surely if anything is classed as a disability impacting on someone's capacity to work it should be laziness. It is not a lifestyle choice like being a lardy, it is in the DNA.

whitevanman Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 It's an affliction I've suffered from all my life, lazy **** syndrome! People just don't take it seriously. Those affected suffer terrible alienation yet have no protection from hate speech like the coons and poofs do. It's time those affected demand change. Time for a general strike!

Mark Uttley Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Lazy **** Syndrome (LAS) is no laughing matter. I was continually denied promotion by my previous employer, who refused to take my LAS into account. I'm thinking of suing. Would anyone care to search the internet for me to see if this is possible?

Wurzel Of Highbridge Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 We could take money from the intelligent, prudent and proactive and then give it to the thick, poor and lazy. Oh, wait - the government are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidg Posted December 19, 2014 Author Share Posted December 19, 2014 Disabled compared to who/what? The mean/average person? I dunno, ask my teachers. They assessed me as being officially lazy. We could take money from the intelligent, prudent Now you are being offensive, conflating lazyness with being thick and poor. Try replacing lazy with black in your sentence and see how it sounds.

justthisbloke Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 I divide my officers into four groups. There are clever, diligent, stupid, and lazy officers. Usually two characteristics are combined. Some are clever and diligent -- their place is the General Staff. The next lot are stupid and lazy -- they make up 90 percent of every army and are suited to routine duties. Anyone who is both clever and lazy is qualified for the highest leadership duties, because he possesses the intellectual clarity and the composure necessary for difficult decisions. One must beware of anyone who is stupid and diligent -- he must not be entrusted with any responsibility because he will always cause only mischief. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_von_Hammerstein-Equord Clever and lazy is the way to go!
