I once pirated a book because I didn’t want to get it from another room.

I once threw away sink full of dirty dishes rather than hand wash them. They had been there for like two weeks and were really nasty. I think that was at the height of my depression.
Been there as well
And I tried to save a pan, but the fat and dust would never get of it, and I needed to throw it away anyway…
That’s why I like stainless steel cookware. If there’s a tough mess stuck to them, I just switch from my usual sponge to the stainless steel scouring pad and wear it back down to the metal.
Can do similar with cast iron, but it can turn into more work if you need to reseason it.
Since some months now we have a carbon steel pan and I absolutely love it, because it’s also very thin and adapts quickly to temperature changes
And also has the advantage to clean it quite roughly
That quick temperature change sounds like a double edged sword to me, as a thicker base means it can hold its temperature as you add cold/wet food, which might result in steaming food instead of frying/sautéing.
On that note, temperature control also helps making cleaning easier. If your oil is heated before you add the food, the food will tend to not stick as much (though there’s a bunch of other factors at play, so I still get use out of my scouring pad).
I usually account for that, by starting to heat up before that
Maybe a thing of preference :-)
As someone who has spent their fair share of time deep-cleaning greasy commercial kitchens, I believe the stainless steel scrubby is one of humankind’s greatest creations.

I made an script in Python to batch rename like 10 images in a folder.
What’s the point of automation if not to save seconds by wasting hours?
This immediately came to mind
That’s valid
I got a pair of slippers with brushes on for when you clean the floor, I put it on a remote controlled car so I didn’t have to get off the couch.
That’s not lazy, that’s brilliant
That’s genius
That’s great though, because it makes cleaning the floor fun. You get to drive a remote controlled car instead of just mopping or whatever.
We rented an apartment for 5 months after listing our house for sale because we didn’t want to have to clean it and leave the house fora few hours every time someone wanted to come do a viewing.
In our defense… we had a 3yr old, a hairy dog, and were preparing to leave the country permanently, which took 10 months of nonstop preparation on top of working full time, so I still think it was worth the money to save us the extra work. But yeah, probably the laziest thing I’ve done.
That’s not lazy, that’s just good planning. The last thing you need before a massive move like that is more stress.
I totally understand this move, we did something similar to avoid having to pack up our cats every time someone wanted to see the house.
I’m pretty sure that’s what I’ll have to do as I can clean but I have trouble maintaining. Plus I have too much stuff for the space I have, so I’ll need a place for my stuff anyways.
I dunno if laziest but my landlord certainly thought so. I had bedbugs and there’s so much crap you have to do prep for the extermination like remove all your clothes and wash them three times on hot, flip through all your books to check for them, the list was ridiculous. I’m way too lazy for that so I paid the extra $600 out of pocket for the “good” treatment where they just super heat your entire home to kill them and all you have to do is remove things that might melt or explode.
Thankfully the exterminators found the illegal fireworks I had hidden and forgotten about, removed them, and didn’t say anything to the landlord.
The heat treatment was the only thing that worked when I had to deal with those little fuckers. I’m sorry you had to deal with them, but I’m glad they’re gone now. Those things aren’t just physically irritating, they fuck with your head.
Last part of last sentence absolutely. Reminded me of when I moved to sleeping on the couch while waiting for the extermination day. While doing couch life I read that bed bugs are attracted to carbon dioxide so breathing will pull them toward you anyway. There is no escape.
Pissed out of a window rather than walk ten feet to the bathroom.
In fairness, I had the flu, and was a teenager. Feeling like hammered vulture shit, with a window right there and open anyway? No way was I getting out of bed. The window was just barely above the top of the mattress, so all I had to do was roll over, kinda prop up, and let 'er rip.
Surprisingly, not only did it not go horribly wrong, but the little forethought I had with a fever that high managed to prevent any drips from being a problem. Well, a problem then. Still had to wash the towel later, and that left me without a clean towel for fever sweats, but I had bandanas I could use for that.
Look, I was creeping into dangerous fever levels lol. Not the best set of decisions, but it worried out in the end
In hindsight, you could’ve used a bandana for the drips
Where was the pee falling to? Any neighbor that could have seen?
Out into the yard. It had plenty of arc what with being backed up a good bit lol.
Our yard had plenty of trees and shrubberies even back then (now, it’s essentially a meadow), so for someone to have seen anything at all they would have had to be in the yard itself, and thus deserved to see a dick hanging out a window and pissing on them :)
I’ve found alternate means of watching a show because I couldn’t be assed to open my authenticator app more than once.
An authenticator app is required for media streaming app!?
TBF, I’m getting a bit fed up with these logins that require 2 factor text or email.
Checked my phone to get the current weather. The alternative was walking a meter and opening the curtains. But then I had to get up.
The curtains won’t tell you the high for the day

Your mom. Sorry if this had been mentioned already, it’s a long line.
Can I take a number? I’m in line for their dad already.
I once st
Well d
when my apartment gets too messy i just move
I don’t wash stains on walls from dogs or kids. I just paint every few years
maybe we’re related
I’m too lazy to keep track of all the lazy shit I do
I have no way to gauge it
I buy new socks instead of washing them.
But you should always wash clothes before wearing them for the first time???
(Seriously though, they have all kinds of dirt and chemicals on them)
Black socks
they never get dirty
The longer you wear them
The blacker they get
Someday, I’ll probably launder them
Something keeps telling me don’t do it yet

Pro tip: If you buy tons of the same type of socks such as 20 pairs of black you can wash and dry them and they pair easily. It’s less effort than going to buy new ones.
Gosh I’ve been trying to force myself to do that for like 5 years already. I’m just too lazy to spend some time and choose a good fit (instead of just buying random socks every once in a while). What brand and type of socks would you recommend??
Dickies Dri-Tech in whatever length you need. They’re my go-to because I wear safety boots for work. They’re way more padded than typical socks, and they’re extremely durable.
Thanks!
Buy one pack of 5, if good go back and buy 3+ more packs leaving some unopened and throw out old if not find better. Look at what sock you like currently and try finding similar. I like thin/semi thin. I don’t do brands, just feel with the hands.
This is exactly what I do. I have like 30 identical pairs of socks. They just get dumped in a pile in my sock drawer, and I grab two off the top of the pile every day.
I literally spit coffee reading this lol
