Do you pick up the phone and call your grandmother without a second thought? Do you clean your room without waiting for it to first turn into an inhabitable toxic wasteland? Do you write all of your essays with plenty of time to spare? Then it sounds like Marvel might have found a new superhero, because very few people have the strength to resist the persuasive powers of procrastination.

As you can see from this hilarious list of posts compiled by Bored Panda, procrastination is, for most of us mere mortals, an unfortunate yet inevitable part of our existence. Still, although it doesn't help us to get anything done, it does at least give us something to laugh about. Are you a master procrastinator? Then let us know in the comments below...whenever you find the time that is...

I would do that too, I have slight OCD, but I'm often too lazy so it's conflicting

You don't have OCD, you just prefer things orderly. The "c" in OCD is for compulsive. Trust me, there is no too lazy for someone with OCD to place something in it's "proper" place or to complete or repeat a ritual behavior. It's honestly torturous not to indulge in whatever is compelling you. A lot of people with OCD are strait up slobs. Hoarders for example. Let's say someone tied you to a chair and trashed and moved everything in your room around th en just left. Orderly folks will be annoyed AT, somebody with OCD will be contemplating chewing off an arm 10 minutes after he leaves. Trust me, you don't want this s**t. Not even in jest.

As a person with *actual* OCD I'm tired of people calling themselves OCD when all they are are neat freaks, a**l retentive or they just like things orderly. The same goes for any other type of mental illness or neurodiversity. "I'm so depressed today." No, you're not. You're sad. You're not "a little autistic" when you are at a loss for words or didn't get the joke, you're not "so ADHD" when you have a hard time concentrating on something today. Just STOP.

Studies have shown that customers are drawn to bins of jumbled merchandise, so store management almost certainly ordered some employee to re-jumble these items.

I did this with a cheap movie bin at a Movie Gallery in the 90s. Th manager yelled at (15 yo, social anxiety sufferer, depressed) me and I cried. My sister's boyfriend, best friend, and her boyfriend all started shouting at him while my sis took me outside. That manager for instantly regrettedhis decision and we all left with free candy and movie rentals.

Sorting can actually help some people organize their thoughts. And I bet the shoppers appreciated it, too.

Because many people are talking about OCD on here,I would like some peoples opinions on something...I sometimes wonder if i have OCD ,and i don't mean like being organized or not liking when people move my stuff, I mean I do a bunch of really stupid things,usually sub consiously ,like i count going up and dwn stairs (i have to take 12 steps going down my stairs,and if it messes up then i get like reaaaally anixous and freak out trying to get my mind off it ) and if i build something,like for example a box, and someone else messes with the box or puts a screw in or i think they messed up a measurement,then i get really agitated ,sometimes I even start shaking,and have to take the entire thing apart ,remeasure everything ,recount all of the tools and start over,i also tend to count my food,like if I am eating cheerios I eat only 6 cheerios at a time,no more, no less, i check the spoon bottom to make sure there aren't any sticking and a couple more things...so,do I possibly have OCD ?

You really should see a doctor, I'd bet none of us here are qualified to answer that.

Didn't someone work hard to jumble them up in the first place? (and I always grab a box or two when I walk by a stand like that. Good & Plenty, lol. Wife frowns at me...)

I would do it as well if no one thought I was nuts for arranging it in a proper order. It just goes against my grain to see dump bins where you have to pick thru everything to find out if there is something you want to buy, especially movies!

I learned this lesson a long time ago, and if you are hooked on adrenaline it also satisfies your addiction. Once you know how long it takes to complete a job, its possible to wait until the last minute before going into overdrive in order to complete it. The thrill you receive from the rush to finish, and completing it on time, justifies your next procrastination. ;D

The time between 10am and 16pm goes by so fast if you have to do something for class or study. Just noticed it yesterday (again)

You have NO idea how happy it made me to hear the exact same words 2 weeks ago. And it's even more reassuring knowing the class's best student isn't close to be finished yet either

So, my will is in the Upside down? I suppose, it's more important to hide form the Demogorgon instead of studying/doing the paper. I get it.

If only the day had more hours, then there would be more time to procrastinate.

You know, it doesn't make it easier that half of the things you're required to to need access to a computer and occasionally access to the internet. THIS IS JUST A HUGE TEST. And I fail it way too often

Well, just replace the "C" with a "G" and the doG will be fine as much
