Have you been in these situations?

You're trying to open up some plastic packaging (like on a cd or something) and use every reasonably sharp object within reach (like a pen, etc) instead of getting up and walking the 5 feet to get the scissors. It will take you 5 minutes to open it instead of 30 sec, but you still don't get up to get them.

Instead of looking up someone's name in the phone book you scroll through the 60 names on your call display, and the name you're looking for is about the 50th call in.

It's the middle of the night and you wake up completely parched. You lay there for about 15 minutes deliberating about whether or not to get out of the bed to fill your glass of water, where if you'd just gotten up in the first place, you'd be back to sleep already.

We're all dumb sometimes, no?

Got any more like this? (I feel like I should say, "if you've been in these situations, pass this on to at least 10 friends, so they'll realize their folly too. If you don't expect to do more things like this...")
