    Know anyone with a strange sense of virtue? My mum thinks procrastination to be a virtue. A cleaner in a hotel I worked in thought that playing poker machines to be a form of charity. Why not directly donate to a charity?

    Procrastination is the thief of time.

    Poker machines in a hotel are a charity. The charity is the hotel. :)

    Thank you for reminding me of this, as I have been procrastinating on a few things lately. :)

    My NY resolution nearly, was not to procrastinate this year.
    But then I thought I'd leave it for next year. :D

    I live in an entire fucking country that regards greed, ignorance, and malice as virtues.

    If that were pertaining to UK and its political discourse, then, another virtue springs to mind - patience. Things will change. It won't forever be as it currently is.:weary: Oh, and envy. I envy those countries with mature statesmen (non-gender-specific obvs).
