As a veteran slacker, I will re-enforce the idea that posting about the work on an online message board is much preferable to actually doing it.

Well, its only 4am over here. Why do you only have 10 minutes?

Because I have to drive 30 miles to get to class, and then hunt down a laser printer (I'm out of paper)

That will take 1 1/2 hours?

and you are still posting on ATOT?

I'm glad that when I was in school....

1) I did not procrastinate
2) ATOT did not exist (or at least I didn't know about it)

Yet, he posts here, and realizes
1. He's out of paper.
2. How far he has to drive.
3. Discusses lack of understanding from his teacher.
4. Oh realizes more work from another class.
5. Time constraints...........*edit* so sorry.
If he'd only realize if he put this much effort in college, as he does his posting, he'd have it made.

Had no problem making Lifer on Anandtech forums in two years but he can't get a paper done in college in time... hmmm.... seems like something needs to be reduced and something else increased.

I had no problems getting it done. No problems at all. That's the beauty of a class where your "papers" are fiction. Did the reading for the other class while I was sitting in traffic. Arrived just in time for class - slipped in the door behind the professor and was seated before he turned around to take roll. I am the ninja master of procrastination.

Posting is negative effort - at least for me.
