Degrees of Laziness

Ladies and gentlemen I am sure there are, more than ten degrees of laziness. I’m just to lazy to write them. Please feel free to add more degrees of laziness in your comments below. First-degree of laziness People who won’t do anything, if they can get someone to do it for them. Second-degree of laziness Putting off anything, that needs doing, Because you don’t feel like it. Third-degree of laziness Taking all the time in the world, to do, anything people ask you to do. Fourth-degree of laziness comes when you feel fine... calling in sick. Fifth-degree of laziness Avoiding work of any kind, At any time. Sixth degree of laziness Placing your Fitbit on your dog, to log your steps. Seventh-degree of laziness Refusing to learn what you need to know. Which includes reading instructions or asking for directions when lost. Eighth-degree of laziness Refusing to take part, in any pleasing sexual act. (When you don’t give a f**k!) Not that you can’t Get it up! Ninth-degree of laziness When you refuse to do the chores that need doing. Like Grocery shopping, Cooking dinner. Walking the dog or mowing the lawn. Tenth degree of laziness When you are known, for not returning things you have borrowed.

Lol! Robert, I am most definitely not lazy to leave a comment. Your poem is just what I needed to “ kick” start my day. It's too early in the morning to be laughing soo hard. You covered a lot in your funny poem. I can't “ touch” this. I guess I was “too” lazy after all:-) Alexis

Hi Robert, Well I'm not too lazy to leave a comment to this cleverly spoken riff on laziness. I especially can relate to the 7th degree. I don't mind looking up directions, and I usually pull the car over for that. But I am notorious for being frustrated over not knowing how a mechanical device works... but, after all, I didn't exactly read the instructions. So, yes this is a humorous poem.

Heya Robert, Not sure if this comes under the eighth and forth degree, if there was work in the bed I’d sleep on the floor, a grey area perhaps, but had a good laugh reading this one, hopefully everyone else is not to lazy to leave a comment, cheers David

Thank you, I have a few changes I'm going to make in hopes to make it a little funnier.
