Pawsitive procrastination

Derived from "positive procrastination". Positive procrastination is when you put off doing an urgent task by doing less urgent activities (such as cleaning, working out, running errands, ect.). Pawsitive procrastination is like positive procrastination, but specifically using pet care/attention activities to avoid work.

My term paper is due tonight but I am engaged in pawsitive procrastination by taking my dog on an extra walk today.

Procrastination Masturbation

The act of wasting or poorly using time in order to delay commencement or completion of an important task, duty or job by performing any other menial or cleaning task or utilising nearby equipment/tools, typically within hands reach.

Includes cleaning, watching TV, adjusting the settings of every device you own, polishing the family jewels and creating articles about phrases you intend to quote as excuses later.

Brad Pitt felt like a spot of Procrastination Masturbation, thus put Project Mayhem on hold so he could grow a beard and advertise perfume in black and white.

Productive Procrastination

In order to avoid doing something you need to do, you do something else productive.

Procrastination Rooster

The consequence of procrastination is call Procrastination Rooster. Multiple consequences of multiple acts of procrastination will yield Procrastination Roosters. Procrastination Roosters need immediate attention, or they will make a lot of noise. Procrastination Roosters are easy to keep as pets - ignoring it keeps them around. Procrastination Roosters appear when you least expect it. In some cases, you know when you will be getting a visit from Procrastination Roosters.

When all the consequences of your procrastination comes crashing on you at once. Yup, the Procrastination Roosters have come home to roost.

It's the first day of work after the long Christmas holidays. For all the times I've said, I'll deal with that next year! Now the Procrastination Roosters have come home (to roost).

Intermediate Procrastination

Procrastination that occurs mid-task, thus interrupting the flow of productivity.

It took me five hours to write my mid-term paper last night. Had a lot of intermediate procrastination though.
