Your time is only valuable when you're working. Don't delude yourself into
thinking that your leisure time is valuable. It may be prized by you, but
it's not valuable. When you're relaxing at home you can spend as much or as
little time as you like puttering around the kitchen, secure in the
knowledge that you're not losing any more money than if you were
masturbating. And since you apparently don't like puttering around in the
kitchen....
