I don't think I could find two more
serious-looking, angry, bald men if I tried.
And I found them doing an assignment
for ECON--my main inspiration.

Lazy vs. Efficient

Dictionary.com's first definition of "efficient:"

"Efficient
adjective
performing or functioning in the best possible manner with the least waste of time and effort; having and using requisite knowledge, skill, and industry; competent; capable."


It is interesting to note that with minor alterations, I can produce a definition for "lazy."


"Lazy
adjective
performing or functioning in a good-enough manner with the least waste of time and effort; having and using a good-enough amount of knowledge, skill, and industry; competent enough; capable enough."

How do I know?

Utahns call TV shows "shows." They also call movies "shows."

When they are talking about some visual media of which I have never heard, I have no way to discern whether it is a movie or if it is a show.
I don't get it.
