I have this problem :/

I used to be just like you when I was at school - oooooo the memories....

This is what id do - in your web browser , eg firefox, keep open the following tabs:

1) OCUK forums
2) wikipedia
3) some other good site that you can get information on your topic
4) the pornographic equivalent of youtube

Then follow the tabs along, spending 20 mins on each.

1) browse the forums
2) research / do essay
3) research / do essay
4) fap

Hope this helps

Labour are a left wing-ish party yeh guys, in early 19th century?

Remember it's probably never going to be the 'right time' to start working, so just get on with it and get it done, think how much better you'll feel afterwards. (Not relating to bengaboys ideas above, but the essay).

EDIT: Not really the right place to ask that question! We're much less reliable/as reliable than wikipedia!

The knowledge that the experience of doing the task itself is reward enough. If it's easy it's usually not worth doing.

Saying that I'm even more demotivated than you would ever believe recently...

Fapping will just make me more tired, seeming as i didnt sleep last night, as i stayed up all night trying to do the said essay, but it turned into a BIA:HH-fest!

Why cant they ask me questions about WW2 weapons and battles

It's probably an auto rotating sig. Or he has a weird OCD.

I did think about this although I thought that you wouldn't be able to write the code in the OcUk sig thingggy or I thought about a server rotating the image of the sig from a number of different ones.. (4 different sig pictures and change a value and data/rename or whatever every few minutes using some statements)

Turns out it is OCD!

edit: ***** HELL SORT IT OUT LAD!

at this rate you going to have about 200 signatures

Everyone stop posting in this thread for at least an hour, don't give him an excuse to stop working.

You need to remove all distractions. This may mean fapping so much that you couldn't possibly do it again for example. Hey presto, you're free to apply yourself to something else.
