Lazy people know that efficiency and creativity are essential to being lazy. Lazy people want to get things done in the fastest and easiest way possible, so they can go back to being lazy without any interruptions. The longer a person wants to be lazy, they must get creative with their actions. Some people might think laziness is a bad trait to have, but in certain cases it can bring inspiration for genius inventions or ideas.
Here are 49 people that prove laziness is not always a bad trait, but instead a creative, maybe even genius, trait.
1. Broken Razor
The handle to his razor might have broke, but the razor itself was still usable. All he had to do was find an object that could be used as a handle and he found it in a fork. He is going to have to shave very carefully to keep this razor steady.
2. Lunch Breaks
Who wants to eat lunch in the break room with their fellow co-workers? Not this guy. He figured out a way to connect his Super Nintendo in his car. His lunch breaks just got a lot more fun. The only problem is that his lunch breaks seem to go faster than usual.
3. DIY Garbage Chute
The apartment did not come with a garbage chute, so they made their own. It took a lot of trash cans to make it, but it was worth it in the end. There is no need to go down those dreaded stairs, to throw the trash away, anymore.
4. Musician’s Hammer
Being friendly with your neighbors is helpful in times of need. Many neighbors ask for sugar, milk, or tools to borrow. When he asked his musician neighbor for a hammer, he was in for a surprise. The musician had created his own hammer with the help of his drum sticks. Hey, at least he had a hammer.
5. That’s One Way…
Shoveling snow out of the drive way is always a rough way to start your day. This man had enough of the shovel and found a quicker way to rid the snow out of his driveway. He is one neighbor you do not want to mess with. I mean who has a flamethrower on hand?
6. Hard at Work
Why work harder when you can get the job done while sitting down? These four employees put the team in teamwork as they clean the streets from the back of their vehicle. They are not only getting their job done but they are doing it in record timing.
7. Trash Day
The house’s long driveway seemed like a plus when they bought the house but they were not thinking of trash day. This husband has learned the laziest way to bring the trash cans to the street. He is lucky that his trashcans have wheels, but he probably would have figured out a way even if they did not.
8. Pizza FaceTime
No one likes burnt pizza, but no one likes to wait in the kitchen to keep checking the pizza. What is a person to do? Well, this person used their phone to FaceTime their oven. They get to keep their eye on their pizza while doing whatever else they want to.
9. Tanning and Sipping
He needed shoes and a frisbee to get his drink at the right height, but it worked. He gets to tan his backside and still be able to sip on his drink. Staying hydrated in the sun is important after all.
10. Dirty Floors, No Problem
Not everyone can afford a Roomba vacuum or mop, but any one can create their own version. By attaching their sweeper to a remote control car, they can sweep their hardwood floors while sitting on their sofa. Genius!
11. New Headlight
This headlight is one of a kind. Instead of installing a new headlight, they created a bouquet of flashlights instead. If it lights the road, that is all that really matters. Hopefully it stays in and does not fall onto the road though.
12. Free Dandelions
Neighbors can be annoying, so the best way to get revenge is by being annoying right back. This neighbor wanted action taken about the abundance of dandelions on their neighbors yard. So, the neighbor invited anyone and everyone to help with the dandelion removal instead of doing it themselves.
13. Lazy Clock Maker
This would be a horrible clock for elementary school students but it works for everyone else. This clockmaker must have been having a bad day and did not want to design one more clock. So, he designed a quarter of it and said he was finished.
14. “Shut” the Door
The lock on his door was frozen, so his door would not completely shut. He could not be late to work, so he created an extra “buckle” to keep the door shut. He has become one with the door.
15. Bucket of Soda
People usually buy a bucket of chicken at KFC, not a bucket of soda. He was not going to miss out on this opportunity to get a massive amount of soda though. This size would be an extra extra extra large soda.
16. Get What You Asked For
One man was in a chat room talking with a lady. He asked for a picture of her “form” and she gave him exactly what he asked for. This is a reminder to be careful for what you ask for because you might just get it.
17. Technical Support
His mother could not locate MS Office and needed a bit of technical support, which would be her son. He did not want to have to repeat himself, so he created a new desktop picture so she would never forget. This is hilarious and helpful.
18. Photoshop Skills
Some days you just don’t want to go into work but have no valid excuse. When you don’t have a valid excuse, make one up. This employee sent in a photoshopped picture of his car with a flat tire to get out of work. That is some great photoshop skills.
19. Dad Duty

20. Reheating Pizza
If you are not lazy, you will not understand how turning on an oven and waiting for it to heat can sound like too much. It is all about how long it takes and flipping a toaster on its side is a lot quicker. Too bad this person does not enjoy cold pizza because he could have ate that pizza a lot sooner.
21. Multifunctional Broom
Brooms are used for a multitude of reasons, just ask Harry Potter. This car needed a wiper for the back window and the bottom of the broom found a new home. All it needed was two zip ties and the broom is now a wiper.
22. Coffee, Tea, or Noodles?
Keurig’s don’t only have to be for hot drinks if you are creative. This person used the hot water from the Keurig for his cup of noodles. This is a lot faster than waiting for water to boil on the stovetop!
23. Hoodie Hack
Many people are working from home for the first time because of the pandemic. This means you get to work in whatever attire you would like. This is a great hack to know if you are hungry and it is not your lunch break yet.
24. Lemon Water
His boss told him to put lemon in the water, but he did not say anything about cutting the lemon. The guests did not seem to mind either because that “lemon water” is almost gone. If it works, it works.
25. New Use For Mismatched Socks
The laundry eats socks and we do not know how or why. This brother found a great way to use his mismatched socks and now does not even have to buy a protective mat. This lazy hack is a two for one.
26. Don’t Forget Your Lunch
He had forgotten his lunch too many times and needed to figure out an idea to help him remember. Instead of a note on the door or an alarm on his phone, he attached his work bag directly to his lunch. Hopefully he does not forget his work bag because then he will have nothing for work.
27. Before and After?
These two pictures were both taken in the same month. How, you ask? They are friends that have a similar face. I guess that is one way to “lose weight.”

A true rockstar can use any type of mic stand and be able to still rock out, even this mic stand. It does not matter about the look, talent is what matters. Well, that is what this singer keeps telling himself.
29. Bath For All
In this house, everything gets washed together. Humans, pots, and pans, it does not matter. If it is dirty and needs to be cleaned, might as well clean it all together.
30. Look Ma, No Hands
Getting the perfect picture is all that matters for these two girls. They needed a great angle and their hands were just not far enough. So, one girl took the picture with her foot. Talk about doing it for the ‘gram.
31. Live Stream the Pies
His girlfriend made the pies all by herself and all she asked of her boyfriend was to watch the pies while she took a quick shower. This lazy boyfriend was not going to stop what he was doing, but knew his girlfriend would be upset if he actually did not watch the pies. What did he do? He live streamed the pies and stayed in the room.
32. New Windshield Wiper
A wet washcloth can make the perfect windshield wiper for lazy drivers. At least, it was the solution for this lazy driver who did not want to go buy a new one to install. The key part is making sure it is wet to really wipe the window.
33. Personal Air Conditioner
When your job is stay inside a car all day, you have to be comfortable. This taxi driver did not have any air conditioning system, so he created his own. He is only looking out for himself and the passengers in the back will just have to suffer in the heat.
34. Take a Seat
This scooter owner was not going to sell or throw away his scooter once it started breaking apart. Instead he is just going to replace every piece with something around the house, such as a dining chair for the seat. If it is still running, it will still be used.
35. Staying in Bed
There is a lot going on for this student to stay in bed. The longer you look at the picture the more you will notice about his bed/laptop creation. The only part that leaves me with questions is if he is really looking at the screen upside done?
36. Secret Naps
This security guard wanted to be intimidating and also sleep. That would seem like a hard task but lazy people will figure out anything for a good nap. He created a fake security guard to hide behind and nap. He did not use a picture of himself either, but a tougher looking security guard instead.
37. No One Will Notice
This entire family was too lazy to build their Christmas tree. At least they had one member that wrapped the box with Christmas lights. It was the closest this entire family was going to get. The family that is lazy together, stays together.
38. To Do The Dishes, Or To Not Do The Dishes
There was not one clean glass in her house but she still wanted her drink. Instead of washing the dishes, like most would have, she put her drink into a zip lock bag. She was so proud of her lazy idea that she posted her drink online.
39. File The BBQ
Instead of firing up the barbecue, this house files up the barbecue. There is no reason to buy a new barbecue when you have an old filing cabinet. This is one unique barbecue that will have all their guests talking about it.
40. Water Slide Minus The Pool
It seems that building a water slide would be useless without a pool to land in but not to this park. They did not need a pool to land in, they just used a wet tarp. It goes from a water slide to a slip and slide very fast. All that matters is everyone lands safely after all.
41. First Impressions
First dates can be awkward. Knowing a bit about your date is always helpful to keep conversation going. This man knew his date liked Japanese food and wine. So, he combined the two by drinking his wine with chopsticks. He put in effort on this date, just his own kind of effort.
42. Tiny, But Cute
43. Hat and Phone Holder
If you think hats is just for style and providing shade for your face. This person has figured out a hat can also be a phone holder. He can listen to his music and still have access to both of his hands.
44. Chair Not Included
There was no way this child was going to not play on their new laptop, but more importantly, they wanted to play on their laptop while sitting. They have figured out you can make a seat out of about anything, even a dresser drawer. If you can sit on it, or in it, than it can be used as a chair.
45. Hater of Dirty Dishes
Need to use a plate but do not want to wash it after? You can be like this person and put saran wrap around the plate. This will keep the plate clean while you eat right off of the saran wrap. Just don’t poke a hole into the saran wrap with your utensil!
46. Vacuum Sounds
Kids might grow into adults but that does not mean the are grown up. This daughter was home from college for a break and still did not want to vacuum her room when asked. How was she going to get away with it? She put vacuum sounds on her laptop and played it loud enough for her mother to hear.
47. Second Story Struggles
If you have ever lived on a second story, or even higher in a building, you know the struggle of the stairs to get to the first floor. Those stairs will keep you upstairs longer than it should because it sounds too tiring to walk up and down. This man used his vacuum outside his window to grab a fallen item instead of walking down the stairs. We understand, we understand.
48. The Foil Collection
If you are too lazy to wash the dishes, wrap them in foil. This will keep all the food and liquid from the actual dishes. It might even keep the aliens away from your food too.
49. Mega Straw
His friend might be embarrassed by the lazy creation of a mega straw but he does not care. He gets to keep drinking without moving and that matters more than his friend’s judgement. He knows his friend is probably jealous.
