      that is pretty lazy, especially on a pc where if you’d just have the energy to move a finger over to the right side of the keyboard to tap HOME once is all it would take.

        Yeah, my right hand is on the mouse and my left hand rests on the left cmd/ctrl key to easily hit shortcut combinations. So it’s easier to hit cmd/ctrl+R or F5 instead of reaching across to the Home button with my left hand or letting go of the mouse with my right.

          I’ve had so many discussions with fellow nerds about the efficiency of hand placement and movement. Mostly they and I agree, but for some reason I’ve never understood, no one approves of using the heel of the hand for modifier keys, especially Ctrl. It doesn’t work on laptops but on external keyboards it’s always seemed the most efficient to me!

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

    Based.

    I was chilling on the couch watching tv when my roommate came home. She left her purse on the kitchen counter, then came to join me on the couch. I realized after she sat down that I was thirsty, and I’d missed my opportunity to ask her to grab something for me when she was in the kitchen. So I sent a text to her phone, which was still in her purse on the kitchen counter.

    She groaned, then got up to check her message:

    “Hey, since you’re up anyway, can you grab me a soda from the fridge?”

      All my shoes have laces. High insteps. Shoes without laces either don’t fit or it’s a massive struggle to get them on. It only takes me 3 seconds to tie laces.

      slip-on shoes aren’t just for little kids, the elderly, or others that can’t tie shoes.

      they. are. awesome.

      i always loose-tie my sneakers anyway so they could be slipped-on and off easily, but stretchy ‘no tie’ laces are a huge upgrade from that.

    Once I jerked it rather than having sex because it didn’t want to put the effort in to have sex with my gf at the time.

    This backfired though, as she caught me and then she talked me into going down on her as punishment

        In retrospect I’m not complaining, but at the time I was tired and just wanted to cum and go to sleep.

        But relationships are about compromise, and later on she more than paid me back.

    I’ll often order stuff from Ebay/Amazon even though the shop is right next door. It’s partial anxiety but also mostly pure laziness.

      Or, OR, retail doesn’t understand that it’s all a convenience purchase at this point, which means they have to have inventory if they want money. I swear to god, every time i go to a store they never have what i want in stock, so i get my phone out and order it online while standing there angry.

        we went to walmart awhile back to pick something up that was in stock in our store.

        the asshole behind the electronics counter said “we don’t have that in stock”. didn’t even look. didn’t want to check his handheld after we showed him what the web site said.

        we stood right there and ordered it online… for delivery from the store.

        we finished up there, swung through arbys drive through, then filled-up the car.

        and we barely beat the delivery guy from the store home.

    Frequently use voice to text because I can’t be bother typing. This is an example but it doesn’t always work well.
