Scientific methods to cease procrastination anyone?

[Turanil]

Okay, today, as often, I have just spend more than 6 hours in a row lurking and posting on Enworld (with regular checks of emails, just for the sake of trying something else) instead of doing the work I have to do. **Sigh** Now, I will have to spend the night doing it instead of posting on Enworld going outside with my girlfriend...

What a lazy boy I am.

When you find it let me know!! (but they are paying me to do this, he he, but for how much longer )

I have a method I could try to explain... but I must go first check the General Discussion forum to see if someone answered some of my many posts of the last hour.

I find a rabid badger in my jockey shorts prevents procrastination regardless of the method used to put it there.

What?

But it's hard to keep a good supply handy. They keep foaming at the mouth and dying on me.

What kind of work do you need to do? Does it require an internet connection? Maybe removing your connection and then re-enabling it once you're done would help.

Or you could go with Thunderfoot's suggestion; whatever floats your boat.

A simple sledgehammer, when applied to the monitor of your computer with sufficient force and appropriate angle of incidence will immediately eliminate all computer-based procrastination.

Little known fact:
Badgers without rabies work almost as well and present a greatly diminished risk of infection. If you are without badgers at all, tasmanian devils will do, though they are needed in greater numbers, some find that spiders will suffice.

DO NOT USE WOLVERINES FOR THIS PURPOSE. It's overkill and it's dangerous.

And what if the work you're supposed to be doing instead of posting and lurking also requires use of the computer?

But if I did that, I'd be the one that would get the call to go fix it...
