All crastination, all the time

Posted by Bob Tzu on Jun 7, 2009 in Duhism

So many Duhism masters, so little time ;-) . Just a small sample of the other types of crastination from the Twitter Duhists (if I RT'd you all, Twitter would break!). See http://twitter.com/duhism for even more

@DannyPhoenix - polycrastination: the act of putting off multiple tasks and just saying, "to hell with it all!" :)

@kavka - Is a gurucrastinator better than a pro?

@Tao23 - LOLcrastination: when what you should be doing is so damn funny you can't actually bring yourself to do it.

@gregwoodhouse - Hypocrastination is doing things slowly, or at least vein slow to start.

- isocrastonation is waiting the same amount of time for everything.

- Anisocrastination is waiting different amounted of time tostart different projects.

- Retrocrastonation, also called amticrastimation, is keeping at something for a long time.

- Recrastination occurs when tasks proceed more slowly in the afternoon (see Snell's law).

- Lorentz crastination is a relatavistic effect in which take more or less time depending on your point of view.

- Hydrocrastinate equilibrium is a state in everyone has decided to put off getting out of the pool.

@Spinland- antecrastinate: to put things off before you don't get around to putting off the rest.

@bessfriend - An amnecrastinator — the art of putting off things and completely forgetting about it.

@kim__wood - I like to metacrastinate - transcending normal levels of procrastination.

@1person - How 'bout omnicrastinate?… kind of like multitasking everywhere at the same time.

@SSpiffyTwit - I'm a theocrastinator, I let God do it.

@petfosterdad - hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobocrastinator That would be putting off overcoming your fear of long words…

@BurningHawk1969 - The multiverse exists in a state of protocrastination, nothing can be done because it never has been

@EricGeneric - concrastinator: a crook that lingers in the court system before finally being sent to prison (say: Madoff?)

@ThelemicWaves - Sesmicrastination - waiting until the Earth moves, then I'll get around to it.

@ThePinkTweeter - Percuss-tinate - perhaps I play my drum when I really should be doing something else

@AJMcCleary - Polycrastination = the act of putting off multiple tasks and just saying, "to hell with it all!"

I maintain a list of "McGee's nth Laws" at my website (above). In researching the post, I found that someone else had proposed a "McGee's First Law" of his or her own: "It’s amazing how long it takes to complete something you’re not working on." Is that awecrastination or something?

Either "awecrastination" or, maybe, "amacrastination" I think.
