Pretty sure they're saying when people are asked to do things they'll say they need 5. Loads of people say "Gimme a minute" or "Give me a sec" and then come back like an hour later.

People are seemingly missing the point of "base unit". The smallest amount is 5 minutes. Which in all respect is true. I'll confirm what I'm saying in a bit though.

If 5 minutes is after this…

by Anonymous 3 years ago

For me it's whatever amount of minutes gets me to the next half-hour or hour mark. Then I'll start. (Theoretically.)

I think this is accurate. I blame my kindergarten teachers who would end recess by shouting, "five minutes," and I would run up and get in line. Five minutes seemed like forever standing in that line.

by Anonymous 3 years ago

how did you figure this out>?

by Anonymous 3 years ago

You're obviously an amateur. I negotiate my procrastinations in base units of months or years. The juice has to be worth the squeeze, right?

by Anonymous 3 years ago

... i would challenge this, but I need to get more material. I'll go do that in like... five minutes.

Honestly yeah. Sometimes I like to think of stuff based on stuff I'm looking at. I will often stand up staring into the distance thinking of things. I do this for quite a while, so yeah at least 5 minutes. I am procrastinating on the thing I was doing before thinking. I wish I wasn't so lazy and bad with words that could write my ideas down.

by Anonymous 3 years ago

I'll procrastinate later

by Anonymous 3 years ago

If you haven't wasted 30 minutes are you really procrastinating?

by Anonymous 3 years ago

Give me a minute to think about that.

by Anonymous 3 years ago

Can I have 5 minutes to think about this?

by Anonymous 3 years ago

Tbh for me it's 2 min lol.

Girlfriend: "Can you give me a ride to the store?" ME: "Sure are you ready?" Girlfriend: "I just need to put on my shoes." Me (15 minutes later) "Let's go!" Girlfriend: "Don't rush me. I'm working on it. It makes me nervous when you always rush me." Me: "I'll be in the car."

there is no such thing as a 10 minute meeting

So there is a minimum?

I will have to get back to you on that

I agree but often the base unit is not used always. Often, when waking up, I give myself 3 minutes and 32 seconds to get up.
