Turns out man didn’t evolve from monkeys, but lazy-ass kangaroos.

so, like, think about it. Laziness is the root of all invention.

If you really enjoyed hard work, we wouldn't have invented lawn mowers, we'd just scythe everything. Or like, pasta makers instead of rolling pins. rolling pins instead of whateve came before (your hands?). wheels for carts instead of a travois, a travois instead of a backpack, and backpacks instead of just carrying everything in your arms.

Yes, I've always said you can't be a great engineer without being lazy. Good engineer maybe, but it takes a lazy one to truly innovate.
