Tourists at Yellowstone National Park tend to be litterbugs, at least judging by how much stuff the staff has picked up by the hydrothermal areas so far this year. The park's geology team dishes that more than 20,100 pieces of paper and plastic trash, 5,600 rocks and sticks and over 280 hats were picked up around Old Faithful and other areas. Here’s some of the other junk removed from the hydrothermal areas:

54 camera lens caps
47 hair ties
17 pacifiers
20 hotel key cards
42 pencils and
36 pairs of sunglasses
$18 worth of coins in various world currencies
5 Airpods
3 Delta Flight Pins
An inhaler
3 golf tees and
A single Uno card

Everyone has moments when they just can’t be bothered, but some people have turned that feeling into an art form. A recent TikTok thread asked people to share the laziest thing they’ve ever done, and the responses range from mildly relatable to genuinely unhinged.

Here are some of the funniest, strangest, and most questionable responses:

"I google earthed my license plate bc I was too lazy to walk outside and look."

"I was sick with a sore throat and was too lazy to get a cough drop so I held my mouth open over the humidifier which wasn't really cleaned to 'soothe it' and developed strep throat because of the bacteria in the humidifier."

"I'll put 33 seconds on the microwave instead of 30 so I don't have to move my finger."

"When I'm in bed and don't want to move to turn my tv and xbox off i just play black screens on youtube for hours so it's dark."

"Went to wilderness therapy and refused to carve my own spoon so I ate with random sticks I found for two months."

"My son came over to borrow a frying pan because he didn't want to wash his."

"Ate ice cream with a credit card."

“I couldn’t be bothered to look out the window so I checked the weather app on my phone.”

"Took my makeup off with socks for a year straight."

"I threw away a tupperware today because it had food that had gone bad and didn't want to clean it."

"I downloaded a tv remote app so I didn't have to go across the room to get it."

"Slept on a bare mattress for 3 months because I was too lazy to put the sheet on, the sheet was at the bottom of my bed in a ball."

"Sometimes when the toilet paper runs out I'll use the empty toilet paper roll thing to wipe."

"Sometimes I just stare at a TikTok for over 5 min cuz I don't have the energy to scroll."

"Dressed for school the night before and woke up in the clothes."

"I ordered DoorDash from the restaurant directly under my apartment."

If nothing else, this proves there is almost no task humans can’t find a more ridiculous way to avoid.⠀
