It actually makes sense the way Tiff explained it the first time. It's people that generally want to find the most efficient way to achieve whatever goal is in their mind.
I'm getting dressed - running late - and I'm spraying on some random stuff. Joe comments, "it smells like an old man's cologne." I freeze. I'm like...how did he know what I'm wearing?? 😂
Robert Carlos not really lazy because they can sure push the gas to cut you off non signal users are just assholes i'm lazy as shit but have the decency to use the signals
Just a heads up jk crew, Sample size means nothing, sample diversity is the true test of accuracy. 99% of scientific studies barely have more than 150 people participate because it saves them money and time. Plus if you have 1000 people in a study yet 800 out of that thousand come from middle class white neighborhoods than the study does not properly reflect the U.S population. however if you have 100 people participating in a study and half of them are male and the other half are female and everyone has a different arrangement of ethnicity and economic status Ex: 30 black 40 white 10 asian 20 hispanic with some of them coming for lower income environments, some coming from higher class environments some having different sexual orientations and religious beliefs etc... You then have a much better sample pool than the one with 1000 people because it more accurately represent our population.
JK is against the notion that Lazy = Smart because it goes against their ideals and even their brand, Barbell Brigade. I wish they'd have more of an open mind about articles instead of being so defensive.
Wouldn't that contradict the article presented to you, no? actually you're right, it's not like I'm going to study architecture at London Metropolitan University (in London if you haven't figured out yet) any time soon, nope, never, as mentioned by you above I might just be far too lazy and stupid to do so. HUMBLEBRAGGING cause I bloody love it.
I think the article was talking about people that are smart but aren't challenged enough and become lazy. I knew someone that was like this and he was kind of the "nerd" smart, but he wouldn't do his work in school.
As long as people can support themselves with a job and not rip off their families for money, I have no problem with them wasting their time being lazy and playing video games.
I totally agree that the whole showering debate depends on the individual. There's people out there who are extremely oily and should not be showering every other day because it's nasty, but there's people out there who are so dry they can go a couple days without showering and being totally fine. Same with sweating, if you are a sweater (excluding working out sweat because you need to shower after if you don't wanna be super nasty after) you should be showering more regularly but if you barely sweat it's not that necessary imo. In my case, my scalp is insanely dry so I can't wash my hair everyday or else it's crazy irritated and flaky. In the winter I can get away with showering every other day to every couple days because I don't sweat at all and don't have any b.o/basically not dirty. But in the summer it's the opposite, I have to shower almost everyday because I get so sweaty and feel gross because of the humidity and I need to get that shit off. I think I appreciate showering more in the summer because my skin doesn't feel extremely parched afterwards and I actually feel cleansed each time (like how David mentioned). I totally just rambled about showering woops
I agree with Geo, these articles are to justify the people with bad habits including myself. In better words I wouldn't say lazy means smarter, it's more like lazy doesn't always mean dumb.
This is actually true. People who are smarter can find ways to do things easier without actually moving as much while someone who isn't as smart will do it the harder way. It's why us humans are different than other animals. Humans use their brain to eat food and a lion will use their muscles to do it
I believe there's a fine balance to it all. Someone who keeps busy isn't necessarily always being productive. If you guys ever worked any sort of job where you worked in a team, you'll know exactly what I mean. When the bosses come around, guess what? All your coworkers are scrambling around, "looking busy". When the boss is gone for the day, FUCK IT...no work gets done and everybody is fucking around. I think the problem is the whole "look busy" crap they instilled in our culture instead of actually being busy. That's why I prefer working alone or with one other person. When you're working in a group, every fucking body is slacking off...until they get a visit from Corporate Office or mid level managers...
My coworker is really good at making excel macros to ease her daily duties. What would normally take 2 hours worth of work, she has reduced it down to 20 minutes. She calls herself lazy but the real definition for her is that she is efficient. She sees ways to make herself more efficient and spend her time on things that are more worth her time. Sadly, a lot of people work very hard but not smart. There's a big difference. I was watching this one show about penny-pinchers who do extreme things to save themselves money. One guy would go around town and visit every pay phone and vending machine and look for loose change. On weekends, he'd dumpster dive and salvage things. He maybe gets an extra $200-$300 extra a month from spending about 20+ hours a week doing that. To a lot of people they think this guy works very hard to save and be frugal but to me it's a waste of time because I think you can spend that time to learn a new skill that can earn you more money than just a few hundred bucks a month.
im lazy and i love it. but at the same time i can do so much more if i werent lazy, but at the same time i dont feel like im loosing out cause my expectations are low thus im lazy..so its a dilemma..a paradox...
Man, ppl got to calm down. I'm sure Julia picked this article because she knew this one would elicit a lot of opinion and discussion from the group. That's the whole idea of JKN anyways right? We want their opinions, not necessarily straight up news. Also, OG member Daniel Kwan with the edit! Welcome back!!!
This explains me... I'm 12 in 6th grade and was only at the school I'm at now for 5 months and got straight A's and I want to sleep all day instead of doing schoolwork
I like being active & playing sports, but I'm also smart, or at least for my age. Idk but I LOVE being lazy and not doing anything for hours, so I guess it's just the individual.
I've noticed that Joe cuts off Tiff alot mid sentence and you can tell it irks her. I would be super pissed if every time I give an opinion someone was cutting me off without letting me finish my thought.
it was richard branson that said he would hire lazy people as they could easily find a more effect solution even if it was to get somebody else to get the job done
It's more that intelligent people tend to be lazy. I think that's what the article is trying to imply, not that lazy people are smart because they're lazy...
For people who are critising julia for saying she didnt like this article and she still picked it They dont pick them its wich articles are submitted most if they picked them the articles it would be generally the same news and it would be bias
If there are vloggers like JKN, then there are writers doing pseudo science articles being pumped out everyday to pay the bills. This society is about quantity over substance.
My husband often call me lazy because I use smart way. Like: I buy electric timer to heat water, so when I am up, I already have hot water for bath. And I buy microfibres mop so I don't have to sweep the floor. Microfibres mop clean better than broom. Call me lazy... I call myself smart.. 😄
Kain Gutierrez Well this study doesn't explain it very well. The idea is that a more active person is more likely to do their required task the way it's always been done because they don't care how long it takes. We'll use cutting vegetables an an example; so an active person would just use a knife to cut their vegetables because "it's here, might take a while but I have time". However a lazy person has the mindset of "Fuck it. I don't have time to cut vegetables, who has time to cut vegetables?" so that type of person is more likely to invent an alternative, pre cut vegetables, tomato slicers, breeding smaller vegetables so you don't even need to cut them. That is the logic behind lazy is smarter. But it's not true. Lazy people are more likely to be more EFFICIENT, if they're intelligent then that is also a bonus.
Shady people are the real geniuses. They get their share your share and anyone's share if they can get away with it. Most people say those guys are smart which they are. A better name for them is shady abusive hypocrites. Those are the people who instill fear in you to follow the rules but they break them whenever they can to gain the upperhand. I prefer hanging out with good smart people that do not abuse the system. Even if all they can give me is genuine friendship I value that above all else.
there's a difference between being intelligent and smart. An idiot can be smart, an idiot can know more but a subject than a genius but the idiot will have a harder time understanding it. A genius doesn't just "know" everything, we were all stupid at some point and unknowledgeable about the world. a genius has to learn just like an idiot, and the way a genius learns is extraordinary compared to an idiot.
6:26 thank you for sharing an article you didn't liked lol
If they only shared news that they liked it would be very bias #fakenews
I may be wrong, but your past tense on like is wrong.
Whos part of the " doesn't need notifications because your always on RUclips" Squad 😂
Lydia M me boi
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
me lol
Yup
yes but making reaction videos
Joe "It smells like old man coglone"
David "Its AXE I sprayed it in the bathroom" 😂
It actually makes sense the way Tiff explained it the first time. It's people that generally want to find the most efficient way to achieve whatever goal is in their mind.
Julia: "it wasn't selling to me, personally"
Then why did you pick this article
TheCommenting123 you don't think there's other articles to discuss?
TheCommenting123 why are you using profanity? He just posted "his" opinion. Triggered much?
because it spawns a 10 minute discussion
Why are you harping on someone over a word? Uptight much?
Alex G who are you and why are you in this conversation?
2:04 no Bart, thats procrastination!
yeah they described procrastination 😂 there is some truth to this article as well despite what people want to believe
Julia staight up changed her opinion after everyone was say it was a bullshit ass article.
There's nothing wrong with changing an opinion.
Sypher x She can have a change in opinion. Especially after hearing different view points.
Tiff also changes her opinion if she's the odd one out.( more than Julia)
Sypher x that is who Julia is as a person, this isn't the first time.
Sypher x Fun fact: Opinions can change.
Julia back at it again with the lists, studies and surveys
7:30 off course tiff would know since shes always reading buzzfeed
Dear JKnews the real laziness is re-posting a video! lol
Geo talking about showering every other day as if you don't have the option to shower without washing your hair lol
JULIA WHY WOULD YOU PICK/REPORT THIS "STUDY" IF YOU FELT IT WAS BULLSHIT IN THE FIRST PLACE???
candycornisfun she didnt think it was bullshit, she just folds under pressure easily
their definition of lazy is procrastinateion.
Iona Momma lol
Joe's right, smart doesn't always mean successful.
next news:
asian-american dies from eating poisonous berries after living 2 weeks in the wild
I'm getting dressed - running late - and I'm spraying on some random stuff. Joe comments, "it smells like an old man's cologne." I freeze. I'm like...how did he know what I'm wearing?? 😂
Mum- " YOU'RE SO LAZY!!"
Me "it's ok because ur raisin a genius
I feel like julia was thinking "man I picked a shitty article"
this video came while i was procrastinating. perfect
"I got lice 🙄🙄🙄" 💀💀💀THAT KILLED ME.
no no no we do NOT need more excuses for people to stay fat and lazy
DAAAAMN!! the picked my submited article...i knew it was gonna piss them off :D
David:I could but I had back surgery.
Bart: that's it...😂😂😂😂
Lazy are the MF that dont use their turn signals.
Robert Carlos not really lazy because they can sure push the gas to cut you off
non signal users are just assholes
i'm lazy as shit but have the decency to use the signals
If being lazy means being smart...imma fucking genius 😏😊
This is just the type of motivation I needed to finish binge watching How I Met Your Mother!
Just a heads up jk crew, Sample size means nothing, sample diversity is the true test of accuracy. 99% of scientific studies barely have more than 150 people participate because it saves them money and time.

6:22 - "I gotta do this...buuut fuck it..?"
STORY OF MY LIFE
hahahahahaha that oily girl and fire joke was on point hahahhaa
Bruh anyone else notice how Joe keeps interrupting to tell everyone what the room smells like. Haha
lmao when geo is butthurt at the beginning but then proceeds to call herself lazy
"Steve jobs.... I think it was Steve jobs.. uhhh someone"
You know what's bad?
When you do all the work and still get called lazy...you just want to murder somebody at that point.
JK is against the notion that Lazy = Smart because it goes against their ideals and even their brand, Barbell Brigade. I wish they'd have more of an open mind about articles instead of being so defensive.
Abid M No body cares what you think.
It seems you do, in fact enough to comment, hook, line, sinker!
You might be lazy and stupid
Wouldn't that contradict the article presented to you, no? actually you're right, it's not like I'm going to study architecture at London Metropolitan University (in London if you haven't figured out yet) any time soon, nope, never, as mentioned by you above I might just be far too lazy and stupid to do so. HUMBLEBRAGGING cause I bloody love it.
And then they relate everything into an "Asian" thing. 😂
They're comedians so don't take it seriously.
Sedentary lifestyle is more like it. Laziness is procrastination, to-do list keeps on growing etc
I think the article was talking about people that are smart but aren't challenged enough and become lazy. I knew someone that was like this and he was kind of the "nerd" smart, but he wouldn't do his work in school.
Checks video
Sees video's title
Me: It must Julia reporting
Clicks video
Of courseeeee
Joe is the perfect candidate for Naked and Afraid 😂
When people say work smart not hard it really means I am lazy.
Love the new mix of background music with the old :D
Joe sounded like Elmo in the beginning lol
As long as people can support themselves with a job and not rip off their families for money, I have no problem with them wasting their time being lazy and playing video games.
What a stupid ass article. If I presented this in my psych. class my professor would absolutely destroy me lol
what how many people did he study it on to prove that the study is false?
If you dehydrate your scalp or skin it will produce more oil to make up for it, so you just gotta know your body.
I feel like whenever a study is mentioned in a news story, Joe ALWAYS complains it's too small a sample size😂
Joe and David, both of you are sooooooo RIGHT!!!!!
LOL, as soon as I saw the title, my nerd brain immediately thought of Shikamaru from Naruto
I totally agree that the whole showering debate depends on the individual. There's people out there who are extremely oily and should not be showering every other day because it's nasty, but there's people out there who are so dry they can go a couple days without showering and being totally fine.

Joe ....sign up for naked and afraid
im lazy but i dont know if i can call myself a genius
The definition of lazy is unwilling to work or use energy
This is actually true. People who are smarter can find ways to do things easier without actually moving as much while someone who isn't as smart will do it the harder way. It's why us humans are different than other animals. Humans use their brain to eat food and a lion will use their muscles to do it
I haven't watched the video yet but I already have a feeling David is gonna be really chuffed and proud of himself 😂
I believe there's a fine balance to it all.
Someone who keeps busy isn't necessarily always being productive. If you guys ever worked any sort of job where you worked in a team, you'll know exactly what I mean.

In my experience, it's smart people that are lazy, not lazy people that are smart. They don't need to work as hard for good results.
Sometimes if I stay still for a while I start having an existential life crisis and for get how to move
I think lazy people are pretty smart because think about it,someone invented laundry machines so that they wouldn't have to manually wash the clothes
I'm lazy as hell and dumb as fuck
I swear...Bart and Joe think they know everything
I died with Joe at 0:38
Shikamaru is proof!
Looks like I'm a friggin' genius.
You can be lazy and smart but it's meaningless if you don't use it for anything. You'll only be successful if you work hard.
im lazy and i love it. but at the same time i can do so much more if i werent lazy, but at the same time i dont feel like im loosing out cause my expectations are low thus im lazy..so its a dilemma..a paradox...
Czech republic LOOOOVEEES JKNews!!! I am Czech and I absolutely love you!!! you made my day so much better:)
theres lazy as in i dont wanna do things the hard way
then theres lazy as in i dont wanna do things, period.
David ranting about Buzzfeed is wonderful.
Man, ppl got to calm down. I'm sure Julia picked this article because she knew this one would elicit a lot of opinion and discussion from the group. That's the whole idea of JKN anyways right? We want their opinions, not necessarily straight up news.
Also, OG member Daniel Kwan with the edit! Welcome back!!!
Culture?
I feel lazy people come up with more convenient ways to do something. Basically less effort but the same result.
Moral of the story, stay away from Buzzfeed articles and liberals will come up with anything to make themselves feel better.
I must be a fucking genius
Survey questions sounds like the personality questionnaire that they have for most customer service job applications....
if lazy=smart
I MUST BE A FUCKING GENIUS
This explains me... I'm 12 in 6th grade and was only at the school I'm at now for 5 months and got straight A's and I want to sleep all day instead of doing schoolwork
What Bart and David think is not lazy it's procrastination
damn, l just got an overdose of the word "lazy"
Where the weekend scramble at?
I like being active & playing sports, but I'm also smart, or at least for my age. Idk but I LOVE being lazy and not doing anything for hours, so I guess it's just the individual.
I've noticed that Joe cuts off Tiff alot mid sentence and you can tell it irks her. I would be super pissed if every time I give an opinion someone was cutting me off without letting me finish my thought.
it was richard branson that said he would hire lazy people as they could easily find a more effect solution even if it was to get somebody else to get the job done
David is the exception
I must be Einstein level 😂😂😂
It's more that intelligent people tend to be lazy. I think that's what the article is trying to imply, not that lazy people are smart because they're lazy...
The video felt off for some weird reason until I realized the music was lower than usual
For people who are critising julia for saying she didnt like this article and she still picked it They dont pick them its wich articles are submitted most if they picked them the articles it would be generally the same news and it would be bias

Hard working people work hard. Lazy people work smart.
I'm smart and active. This honestly pissed me off.

I can stimulate my mind by watching these funny videos
