Chronivors - those who eat time

Musings on life

I was just sitting there, reading some news and listening to/watching the Canucks' hockey game on TV, when the announcers started talking about the Sedin twins and their ability to eat up penalty time; and they coined the term "chronivors" to describe them.

Chronivors - a wonderful word I thought - but only applying it to hockey players is far to limiting. This term has legs!


I don't know about you, but I'm allergic to Chronivors - I hate it when people waste time - especially mine.

I hate dawdlers in the fast lane on the freeway

I hate slow-talkers

I hate people who refuse to look for an answer themselves before they call me for one

I hate standing in line

I hate waiting for anything

hmmm...on the other hand maybe being so allergic to wasting time is actually the root of some of the ills of today's hectic society.
