Title: Bogota opens 'museum of laziness'
Post by: bijou on January 06, 2008, 05:00:32 PM
A museum dedicated to laziness has opened in Colombia's capital, Bogota.
The event features sofas placed in front of televisions, hammocks and beds - anything associated with the avoidance of work.

The idea is to get people during the holiday season to think about laziness and its opposite, extreme work, and perhaps reach some balanced conclusion.

Visitors will have to shed their laziness long enough to get to the museum soon - it closes in a week.

I nearly couldn't be bothered to post this, but I summoned up the energy from somewhere.

They would have gone, but involved moving and no one organised a fund raiser to pay for their tickets.  (That and Teh Rove used mind control to pin them to the sofa)

Did he send cheetos? I fear his plan was incomplete unless there were cheetos involved.
