"laziness"

Hello /sci/,
Could you explain to me why people are willing to go out of their way "to be lazy".
Examples:
  Walking an extra 20 feet to the automatic door instead of pushing open the other door.
  Waiting an additional 5 minutes instead of going up a flight of stairs.
I'm sure you've observed others. Is it just a habit people get into? Has there ever been a study into this.

Listen here, ":/" emoticon user, your trolling doesn't affect me! I am much more powerful than you realize! See me on the astral plane and you will see how powerful I can be!
