Two trendy young women were sitting behind me on the bus this afternoon and, without meaning to eavesdrop, I heard them reach the conclusion that the young men of Canberra are a bit on the lazy side.
What do you reckon? Are we?

Inappropriate said :
We’re not lazier; the women here are just princesses.
Exactly. Still, it’s up to the individual to decide what they want, and what they can put up with.
And I for one would not put up with riding the bus.

But my wife is lazy, I have to do everything, other wise the kids would be affected, I am only sticking out until the kids are older. I don,t know why gays and lesbians wont marriage rights? Trust me its hell. Just religious dogma
lol… I take it your wife doesn’t know you frequent this site?
we live in a city that hibernates for the most part in winter. I don’t go out in winter, much at night, but I am not young, either. We are always doing things in summer, it is just winter that slows me down. I am not lazy, just permanently knackered.
I prefer to think that the young women in Canberra were generally on the high maintenance side.
.. “without meaning to eavesdrop, I heard them reach the conclusion…”
Dont worry JB, Im sure you werent really eavesdropping. If these women are anything like I see on my rare bus trips, chances are they made their point loud enough that half the bus heard.
“Two trendy young women were sitting behind me on the bus this afternoon”
Trendy women on the bus?
Surely not.
perhaps the young men of Canberra are spending too much time messing up their hair, like all young pups seem to do these days. I am getting sick of being held up in the crappers by a bunch of young blokes primping themsleves in mirrors. Boy George was a bad idea to start with nd you all need to stop imitating him, and David Beckham damn it.
i’d go ‘apathy’, thumper – laziness would have seen you not even being bothered to post…
all generalisations suck. ; )
I was going to ask something about what criteria they were applying – was it in bed, was it about taking out the garbage, was it about their jobs … and then it just seemed like too much of a hassle. I couldn’t be arsed.
But my wife is lazy, I have to do everything, other wise the kids would be affected, I am only sticking out until the kids are older. I don,t know why gays and lesbians wont marriage rights? Trust me its hell. Just religious dogma
What’s the difference between “As lazy as other men”, and “No lazier than other men”?
Sounds the same to me.
I thought about breaking it down to a maths formula, but couldn’t be bothered.
