10 Apps Every Lazy Person Needs in OLIVE BRANCH, MS

Transform yourself into an immobile lump of flesh that has forgotten how to do basic tasks. It's the year 2017, and we're feeling a little cheated. By now, we were supposed to be pampered by robot manservants and "work" would be a word so bad you couldn't say it on TV or hologram or whatever. Alexa provides a glimpse of our AI-controlled future, but the idyllic view of life as a lazy man's paradise doesn't seem to be materializing just yet. Or does it? Look down at your hand. No, your other one. You hold a computing device of such staggering power that it boggles the mind. Surely you can use it for more than just Instagramming burger pics. Use it to make people do things for you. In this rundown, we'll lay out the essential apps for people who want to live large and lazy in the modern world. There are programs to park your car, put together your furniture, and even blow out the candles on your birthday cake. If it's not too much work to install them all, you can use your phone to transform yourself into an immobile lump of flesh who has forgotten how to accomplish even the most basic tasks and is completely dependent on a wireless data network. And isn't that the dream? Pick up your phone and let's slack off to the future. ( Stephanie Mlot contributed to this story. )
