Laziness in my biggest pet peeve of all time. Get up, make a plan, do the work, and love yourself, people!

How rude. Many who have gazed upon me have compared the experience to gazing at the radiance of the sun." Jem still had his eyes closed. "If they mean it gives you a headache, they aren't wrong.
