How Lazy Are You?

I am trying to catch up on responding to comments and messages on my Blog (see, I'm not lazy.  Lol), but while I'm doing that.....you can take a quiz to see just how lazy YOU are.  It's all in fun.  Enjoy!

Homer Simpson: The Epitome of Sloth

Take the quiz to get your own sloth rating!

People were asked their opinions on what they perceived as slothful behavior.  Some unabashedly admitted their suggestions were based on reality: "You know you're slothful when your idea of a perfect weekend is wearing the same clothes throughout and declining the opportunity to bathe."

Others insisted their suggestion was merely an "idea": "You know you're slothful when you let your mini-dachshund lick the kitchen floor to avoid washing it."  We know otherwise.  We've seen the grout.

One had the audacity to suggest: "You know you're slothful when you ask your co-workers to give you ideas to do a story about being slothful."

So how lazy are you?  Where do you rate on our scale of slothfulness?  If you have the time---and don't feel you have to do it right now, but when you're up to it---sit back, get comfy, give a quick holler to whoever's nearby if there's no pen within easy reach, and take the quiz.

Remember, there's no rush.  The results will probably be the same whether you do it now or later.  Lol.  Just write a, b, or c on a piece of paper (or your hand) for each of your answers.  Here goes:

You Know You're Slothful When:

NUMBER ONE

a. You hang your clothes on the exercise bike in your bedroom; it gets you out of ironing AND exercising                  

b. You buy new underwear instead of doing laundry

c. You flip your underwear inside out; saves money, time, AND laundry detergent

NUMBER TWO

a. You don't shovel until the snow has stopped falling

b. You wait until the morning so you can get a good night's rest before tackling the job

c. You say to yourself, "The snow will melt eventually."

NUMBER THREE

a. The Man from Glad looks familiar, but Mr. Clean doesn't ring a bell at all

b. You only vacuum when you see the dirt on the floor and there's nowhere else to shove it

c. Flushing is your idea of cleaning the toilet

NUMBER FOUR

a. You call in sick because you really are sick---of work

b. Getting out of bed takes too much energy

c. You buy disability insurance and look for ways to use it

NUMBER FIVE

a. You don't make your bed because you'll just mess it up again in 15 or 16 hours

b. You use your finger to brush your teeth because it's quicker

c. You buy Depends and wear them, but not because you have to

NUMBER SIX

a. Your PJs double as sweatpants and it's not even the weekend

b. No one is in Tim Hortons (or another coffee/donut shop), but you still get in line behind 20 other cars instead of going in

c. Watching Big Brother is preferable to getting up and retrieving the remote

NUMBER SEVEN

a. Brahms' Lullaby is rockin' it

b. You'd love to learn the words to Flanders & Swann's The Sloth, if only you had the time

c. Your theme song is, I Just Want To Be Horizontal, sung, of course, by the Original Sloth Band

Hopefully you have a calculator nearby, because now you have to tally up your score.  Let's make the numbers round for simplicity's sake.

For every "a", you get 10 points.  For "b", give yourself 20 points.  For "c", it's an even 30 points.

Now, if you scored 70 to 90 points on the quiz, don't be so hard on yourself.  Life is hectic and sometimes you just have to take the easy route.

If you scored 100 to 140, you should consider yourself well on your way to becoming a lazy sod.

Over 140?  Congratulations, you are an all-out sloth.  Your world is such a cheerful place viewed from your upside-down place.  It's a badge you would wear proudly, only that would mean pulling on a sweatshirt to pin it to.

And in the immortal words of that astute British model and actor Elizabeth Hurley, remember: "Nothing irritates me more than chronic laziness in others.  Mind you, it's only mental sloth I object to.  Physical sloth can be heavenly."
