this

some people criticize me like "omg goose puts so much effort and pride into this WR posts!"  Well yeah, they were a labour of love.  Presenting them as irrel is something only true beta cuck degenerates do.

9)  Taking a phat dab while skipping out on your Grandma's funeral because your PS2 memory card presented a corrupted FFX file that you had 999 hours in, but due to extreme OCD, had to start up the game again and begin the grind for 100% completion before feeling right about attending social priorities.

Playing Mario Party 3 story mode for 36 hours straight then sleeping for 18 hours straight. Wake up at 6PM the next day and wander the dorm halls, everyone asking if you're stoned (nah man I was just playing Mario Party). Crash again six hours later and sleep for 12 hours, back to a normal sleep schedule.

Some people work differently, Spec. Some absolutely thrive under pressure (I'm one of these people). Saying it's degenerate to work like this is not only ignorant, but just plain silly.  :v

That TED talk was really good! I was a major procrastinator myself and it took me 7 years of studying and 2 years on the job to realize that sticking to schedule for mandatory tasks and in return getting 8h of sleep almost every night is the way to go. Really improves well-being, health, and focus for the long-term tasks which are never "done" in research. Going bananas at night should be the exception (once every couple of weeks is ok). I recently observed how my skin condition and looks deteriorated after prolonged periods of averaging about 5h/night and how they regenerate with 8h/night, so the former will be avoided completely in the future.

Good talk, I've read the waitbutwhy procrastination article like a year+ ago, and I really enjoy his website. I can completely relate to the end of his talk - the worst procrastination is when there are no deadlines :( I've been slowly sticking to small habits this year (especially in this particular semester) so I can get used to a more consistent, habitual way of work, rather than trying to one-hit-wonder everything I do in life...

Some people work differently, Spec. Some absolutely thrive under pressure (I'm one of these people). Saying it's degenerate to work like this is not only ignorant, but just plain silly.  :v

That sounds like the typical bs from "self-development" broscience gurus (which I followed from around mid-2013 until the end of 2015), where "maximum productivity" is all that matters.
The only thing that an insane procrastination situation like the one I had last semester is for, is to tell a funny story in the future. I would much rather do a more continuous, consistent type of work, which also results in better quality and less accumulated anxiety/stress/frustration, than to rush it all just because I can bullshit it using 1/10th of the time - because good work quality and mental health is way better than the illusion of "high productivity". That's a skill I only wish to use when I absolutely have to.

I think you've missed the point...

Positive stress isn't detrimental to a person. If procrastinating give you anxiety/bad stress/poor mental health coping, then you shouldn't procrastinate. I'm talking about people who can successfully procrastinate and still produce quality work without it being a life detriment. If it doesn't work for you, then that's fine and it's good that you recognise that.
