Beawulf Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I am a typical procrastinator, I tend to put things off constantly and study is no exception. Right now I am leaning over my textbooks starting this thread. Once I am done however, I will have no excuse but to get started. Can anyone help me out with reasons why I should put off studying? The more outrageous the better :cyclops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S0V13T Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Becuase when WWIII kicks off later on this year, it's not gonna matter anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theaveng Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Can anyone help me out with reasons why I should put off studying? There is no good reason. Studying will lead to a $40 an hour job like mine. However you can make it less painful by turning on the History Channel, or Talk Radio, because silence is boring. troy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StitchInTime Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 Hmm. Let's see. That's easy. You are allergic to printers ink. There are so many cool forums to visit. There is so much cool stuff to download and watch. You have to get started on writing your novel, your memoirs, your will, etc. You would rather be skiing. Your dog or cat is sleeping on your textbooks and he/she looks so peaceful you haven't got the heart to disturb him/her. Your dog is dropping hints that he/she needs to go for a walk. You have to get started on your Christmas shopping, before all the good stuff is gone. You don't have a good chair to sit in while you are studying; so, you need to go out and buy a new one. You've just spilled your coffee all over your textbooks and you can no longer read them, or you want to wait until they are dry first, in order to make sure that you don't rip the pages. I could go on, but I expect that's more than enough. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elderbear Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 "Study" and "stupid" both come from the same Latin root, so the more you study, the more stupid you become. Wish I could take credit for this, but I believe that Martin Luther originated it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StitchInTime Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 "Study" and "stupid" both come from the same Latin root' date=' so the more you study, the more stupid you become. [/quote'] :thinking: I can see the "stu," but what about the "pid?" Mind you, "pid" backwards is "dip;" so, perhaps a dip is what you become if you study too much. :thinking: So, if you're a studying student, stuck in a stultifying study room, stuffing yourself full of book learning, you'll be stunned? You won't be a sturdy stud? Will you stutter, stumble, and stub your toe instead? How's that for an excuse for not studying? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbbb Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Study all to know all. Always seek perfection so you can luagh like the green one-eyed aliens on the Simpsons. "...and you must always be twirling, twirling towards the future." "I see all." "Go ahead, throw your vote away."

Wish I could take credit for this, but I believe that Martin Luther originated it. Hmmn, the closest I can find to this (after five minutes studying it, what, you think I want to be stupider? :p) is "studio" which means "to study" and "stupidus" which means "stuck senseless", "bardus" means "stupid".

meateater Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 A wise man once told me: "Procrastination is like masturbation. It may feel good at first, but in the end you're only screwing yourself." :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
