If There Was A ‘Lazy Genius’ Award, These People Would Win
We all have our lazy moments, and it's nothing to be ashamed of. Sometimes you just have to lay in bed on a Sunday and order takeout for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But some people take laziness to the next level.
For these people, laziness is a way of life. They survive by taking the easy way out. No one wants to buy Christmas wrapping paper, but a lazy genius made it work for them. These folks have managed to become certified geniuses because they know a little ingenuity can go a long way when you live a lazy life.
They Must Have One Of Those Really Long Driveways
I don't blame this person for taking their trash out with their car. There have been a few times I've debated letting my kitchen garbage overflow for another week just because putting on shoes is way too much work.
If I had a long driveway or lived at the top of a hill, garbage day would be the worst day of the week.
Think Of How Many Sauce Options You Have Now
Some people might say this person is lazy since they clearly just didn't want to wash a plate, but I say they're onto something big. Not only do they have a convenient spot for each individual chicken nugget, but they've left room for three separate sauces.
You can now fit a mayo, a ketchup, and a barbeque without it all mixing together into a gross soup on your plate.
Teachers Don't Get Paid Enough To Change The Clocks
Teachers already have enough on their plate. Why should they be expected to change the clocks twice a year? If anything, this is a constant simple math lesson for their students. It's a way to get the kids thinking.
Probably Don't Eat A Hot Dog Cooked In The Break Room Coffee Pot
This is one of those lazy hacks that we'd be perfectly fine living without for the rest of our lives. No one ever asked for this. It's not like you're ever in the weekly budget meeting really craving a coffee pot hot dog.
Whoever thought up this idea was smart, but went too far.
Dads Are The Ultimate Lazy Geniuses
Kids are a close second, but dads take the top prize when it comes to figuring out the easiest solution for a job. Dads all want to kick back, relax, and enjoy a drink. But they have these pesky things called kids in need of constant attention.
This man's swing string is the ultimate easy way out.
This Is The Point Of Getting A Dog, Right?
One mom needed to bring her daughter a phone charger, so she just attached it to the dog. People get dogs for companionship and undying love, but there's obviously so much more they can do. Even if you don't want to put in the time or effort to make them a guide or therapy dog, they can still help you charge your phone.
That iPhone Charger Is Risking It All
This isn't a hack. It's a cry for help. This man looks like he's been to hell and back, and just wants to sit down and listen to some tunes.
Sometimes that means hanging your phone from a 10-foot high outlet and praying that the charging cable can hold on for dear life.
Christmas Wrapping Paper Always Gets Wasted Anyways
Christmas time is more stress than excitement. The presents, the food, the pressure. Between it all, the last thing you want to do is buy a roll of Christmas wrapping paper that you'll only use half of and the rest wastes away until next year.
This person's stroke of genius to Christmasify regular wrapping paper gives me hope for the holiday season.
I Bet He Added The Entire Concert To His Snapchat Story
Festivals are way too much for the average lazy man. It's hot, everyone's sweating buckets, you're packed in like life sardines, and on top of it all, they expect you to hop around and dance the entire time. This guy figured out the perfect way to take in a concert on a hot summer day.
Keep reading to see why this lazy way to recycle soda cans screams "college student."
Why Is There No Cutout Of Max?
Their use of the Grinch is a great way to get around lighting up the whole house. But if you're going to do a cutout of The Grinch, you also need to get one of Max.
This house looks like it lives on a street where people take Christmas decorations way too seriously, and they're over it.
This Kid Is Living In The Future
Kids today don't know how easy they have it. This kid now has a mobile device he can place in front of his face and watch hours of TV on.
Back in my day, we only have six local cable channels to choose from, and we had to go all the way up to the television to change the channel.
Stairs Are Hard
This soda can chute screams "college frat house." These students are woke enough to know that properly recycling cans will help save the planet, but they know they're too hungover to want to make the trip down a set of stairs. You have to applaud their efforts.
I Guess You Should Take The Kid For A Walk Every Once In A While
Oh, you thought hoverboards were for kids? Wrong. They were invented by adults who knew the lazy possibilities were endless.
This dad realized that zooming around on a hoverboard while pushing the stroller is an easy way to tell your wife that you took the child for a stroll around the block.
People Will Get That It's Underwater
Coloring the entire sheet blue is a waste of time. It's obviously a submarine, and the cat is wearing a snorkel.
This coloring page is definitely from the kid who got pushed around by a hoverboard when they were young. The lazy gene must be passed down from your parents.
Parenting 101
The mom who put her baby in a boppy with their own baby-sized neck pillow is a hero for all the moms around the world. If this will get them to stop crying, then it's worth it.
This Is Also The Friend Who Doesn't Pitch On Gas Money
The person who won't even get out of the car to pump gas is also the person who won't toss you $10 on a road trip.
I would understand wanting to stay warm if you were pumping gas in Canada, but I see no snow or rain, so this is just plain laziness.
If Stairs Are Hard, Ladder Are Worse
The last thing an electrician wants to do when they get to a job is to climb up a steep ladder. That's why the best and the laziest electricians always have a scissor lift on hand.
It also probably helps them carry any heavy equipment up. I'd hire them.
Standing In The Kitchen For An Extra Few Minutes Is Too Much
I know that waiting for water to boil is as dull as watching paint dry. It feels like it takes hours, but in reality, a pot of water usually only takes about 10 minutes to boil.
This kid probably spent most of that time setting up the perfect Facetime angle. But he got in an extra few minutes on the couch, so it's a personal victory.
You Can't Get An Even Tan If You're Grabbing A Drink Every Few Minutes
Anyone who has tried to lay outside and get the perfect base tan knows that a drink can mess everything up. It is probably out in the sun, so it can quickly get warm.
That means you have to drink it fast. But to do so, you have to get up and move everytime you reach for the drink, which totally messes up your tan. This man's got it all figured out.
Hard Work Pays Off For The Lazy Person In The End
A lot of these genius ideas seem way out of a lazy person's league. Lazy people know that a small amount of smart work ethic will pay off in the end.
Why else would someone spend so much time creating an elaborate string and pulley system just to be able to turn off their light from bed?
