I have a business plan to produce for Thursday. I'm about halfway through and I really can't be fucking bothered.
This despite the very real chance that on Thursday I'll swap my business plan for ten thousand wonderful shiny pound pieces, courtesy of Barclays.
It's clearly in my interest to do this. But I can't muster the energy. Am I the very definition of pathologically lazy?
Bonus points for innovative flaming.

Here's the lowdown. A few years ago I got gout in my ankle, and it pretty much seized it for about 6 weeks. Made some lifestyle changes and kept it at bay without drugs and shiz. Only ever got it in the ankle, no other joints.
December, I sprained it in a x-country, and the sprain was quite bad, but I think became worse as it had a lot of gouty symptoms - severe swelling, pain at night, etc..
Last Wednesday I twisted the same ankle ever so slightly. It sent a shooting pain up my leg, but nothing too severe. Thursday it was ok, Friday a bit sore, Saturday I ran 12 miles and it was ok, Sunday agony, today it's crying blue murder.
I'm shit scared of gout now... my question would be can gout symptoms be brought on in the ankle by a twist? I'd think not, but would like someone who understands this shiz to comment. Dr Google says no.

good weekend? Whatever. I want to rant about something. The iphone.
Load of shit. Cant believe how long I've put up with it.
My wonderful iphone deleted 1 months of email on Friday from my online account. Taken all weekend to sort it out. Fucking piece of shit. Turns out, I'm not the only one, its known for it. Its a 'known issue'. Anyway, its going on ebay soon, theres still some mugs willing to pay tons for them so I can use that money to buy a proper phone. Probably one of the new android things, HTC ones. I had a play and they're not quite as pretty, but a million times more useful. The novelty has truly worn off. The prettiness counts for shit when its a piece of shit under the surface. I dont use it for anything interesting, its like a toy, it just does such limited things and i endlessly, never stop thinking, "wouldnt it be nice if it just did this..." but it never does. I went on 2nd page of icons the other day and I would say i havent been off the main page for over a year, theres just nothing on there that I really use. Its an cunts phone. I feel like dirt, like shit for having wasted money on it.
The email thing is last straw. That and maybe somethings have stopped working because I havent updated the firmware in about a year. Why the fuck should i have to do that, connect it to a computer to fix all the stuff that worked just fine the other day. It truly is a crock of shit. Fucking apple suck cock. They're like scientologists only worse. Money grabbing whore fucking fuckers who cant make anything that doesnt fit into their tiny little view. I cannot express really my true feelings, I am probably going to lie down for bit. Its also a con isnt it, every single thing is designed to make you spend money on their endless shit apps. They've never had a penny out of me since the original purchase, not one and thats my own little rebellion. I've decided that I will never ever buy an apple product again. The ipod is now obsolete - I got a spotify premium account, and I havent listened to mp3's in months now. Apple are OFFICIALLY DEAD AND OBSOLETE.
Next weeks piss easy target, the monumental crock of shit that is the ipad. Oh my god they're having a laugh. And its not even out. I am going to derive quite a lot of pleasure out of that when it fails.

if you can't be arsed to read it, it tells the story of someone who got absolutely shit faced, tried to pull a girl, failed and then drove home absolutely smashed.
I posted a reply being slightly facetious and received a gaz thanking me for being in the OPs corner. I wasn't really in their corner, I was just being slightly racist, and I think driving home when you're that pissed is clearly a very stupid thing to do and the OP is getting rightly flamed (albeit only very slightly).
So my question is, given that I have a dentists appointment at 10.30am tomorrow am I justified in working from home before hand rather than coming into the office and then leaving again an hour later? Or should I just push my friends and family away and then kill myself?

For the 1st time in about 4 years i have my entire CD collection (about 700ish) immediediately to hand.
This presents me with a big ol' quandry.
I have no idea what to listen to cos of too much choice and don't want to just start at the beginning and work through to the end. I have stuff to do so can't risk anything too mad but I keep reaching for the ACDC, Butthole Surfers, Flaming Lips and such. At present we are about halfway through Kate Bush's "The Red Shoes" and I need inspiration.
Any suggestions?
Apart from MTFU or Fuck Off or suchlike.
