Productive Procrastination

Putting off school work by doing tasks that you would otherwise put off such as the laundry, washing your car, the dishes, Organizing files on the computer, preparing next semester's schedule, cleaning the bathroom, washing the neighbors dog, cooking, cooking for your neighbor, pairing all of your socks together, looking up driving directions for races 5 months away, and other such tasks.

Benfits: Shit gets done that you ultimately wouldn't have done for days...Side Effects: Straight Up Procrastination (SUP) because you have run out of things to do and have reduced your efficiency by broadcasting your actions which may lead to messing things up just to fix them and being uncharacteristically kind to strangers and people you despise for the sake of staying productive.
Casey: Yo did Justin send you his part of the project so we could review it today?

Max: Nah, man he's Productively Procrastinating again. Alex told me he's been volunteering at the homeless shelter for the last 12 hours.

Casey: Haha, that's just like him. Remember last time he crashed his car just so he could repair it. Ahh well, every now and then Productive Procrastination gets to us all.

Anal procrastinator

Someone who is so meticulous and approaches every task as a perfectionist with an anal attention to detail, but because of these traits, he/she will also put off ever starting the task due to the anticipated amount of work and effort necessary to complete it adequately. Often, this trait will lead to the task becoming even more difficult later because of the delay in getting started but the continued need for an anal degree of meticulousness.
Jane is a total perfectionist and does amazing work, but because she is such an anal procrastinator, he often never gets started.

John planned to clean and organize his messy desk, but when he took a look at it intending to start, his inner anal procrastinator reminded him how long it would take to finish, so he went to a movie instead.
