How old is this cousin? Maybe they don’t know how to deal with difficult information yet

Clearly you don’t understand how slow things are in government. 6 months is a really fast turnaround for the government to get anything done.

Sticking your head in the sand is a great strategy for never helping to enact change. Knowledge is power, learn what you can.

Well that’s a more specific situation. Personally I try to get things done ahead of time in group projects. That just feels respectful to the others. I can agree that it’s a bit selfish to wait until the last minute when others can’t get their stuff done until I do.

I just wanted to point out that procrastination shouldn’t be considered selfish. Different people have different working styles that work best for them. It’s a compromise to incorporate different working styles and the person who likes to do things right away and then relax should realize that there’s other styles and not everyone can operate the same way as them.

Woah woah woah… selfish behavior? What do you think you know about procrastinators?

I love that I procrastinate. It helps me to think about the issue/task for a longer period of time and allows for freedom to complete other tasks or relax instead of constantly stressing about getting things done immediately. I used to complete jobs right away and was rewarded with ever increasing workloads until I broke down from the amount of stress put on me daily. Procrastination isn’t something done to spite or hurt another person/entity…you have me a deadline and I completed it before it was due. Shouldn’t matter how I went about completing it.

Procrastinating has taught me how to work under intense pressure when it’s absolutely needed, and I can respond in the moment with confidence in my ability. It helps me to find time to be more connected with my coworkers without being overburdened with an ever-increasing workload. If I don’t take the time to be true to myself as a procrastinator, you will get less and less quality work out of me as my mental capacity becomes overloaded. It’s selfish to abuse those that want/need to take their time while still working under last minute pressure to get it done.

Not everything is so black and white just because it doesn’t fit with your style of working.

Just stare into her eyes and the answer will be revealed.

And those owners can almost always find a compassionate ear from their loyal rich CEOs who don’t want to upset a however many years relationship of “I’ll scratch your back if you scratch mine” kinda thing.

SOMETIMES IT’S GOOD TO CARE!

That’s the general gist

You really got a lot out with that post eh? Appreciate you sharing though, you make some great points!

Invest it using the algorithms they’ve so conveniently set up for you! Don’t worry, they wouldn’t take advantage of you because you’re poor…

Well, either you’re really bad at expressing yourself through online comments…or you forgot to add a /s to the end of your comment. Certainly seems to me like you’re still a bit confused.

That one whooshed right over your head eh? He’s saying that chickens families are not, in fact, the same as human families. They don’t form a family unit with bonds above those of other chickens. It’s mostly because they’re chickens…and not humans and it was a dumb comparison for PETA to try and make.

Pointing out how chickens relate to other chickens does not mean it’s an endorsement for cruelty…you stretched big time for that one.

Pizza party solves everything!!

I’M GONNA DO IT!!

Ah, c’mon downvoters…gotta keep some sarcasm alive at the same time!

BEANS?!!?

Sounds like you need to be doing that venting in some air conditioning! I’m a cold weather guy myself, and if I could send you on a trip to a freezer for an afternoon I’d do it!

My cat has pretty much free reign of the place…with two exceptions. Whenever she wants my attention and isn’t getting it, she ALWAYS goes where she’s not allowed just to force me to get up and yell at her. Her reaction is just “oh you’re up now? Ok come on let’s go play”
