384 Entries for “sitting”

  1. A time to comtemplate. Someone may sit to relax, to eat, or simply as they need a rest. One thing everyone does, however, is wonder. Wonder about the universe, where did we come from? where are we going? What is the meaning? For meaning, as in this case, is what defines us.

  2. Wow. I wonder if I’m right about this. Three times in a row I’ve had “sitting” as my word. This is most curious. I’m going to have to try once more to see if they have more than one word to write about. Well, the site is called “one word.” Perhaps it’s an experiment to see who’ll keep going on about “sitting.” I wonder if the creator has a thing for the word or if they happened to be sitting down when they were designing the site and thought, “How funny would it be to only have one word for a site named ‘one word?'”

  3. Huh, I just finished writing about sitting. This is only the second word I’ve ever written about on this site and it’s “sitting” again. How strange. I was reading responses to “sitting” and saw two that had written for “sitting” twice. I wonder if “sitting” is actually the only word available on the site and it’s simply a question of how many times someone is willing to write about one word.

  4. I am sitting here wishing that I could just sit here in quiet not moving, catching up on the sleep I missed last night. I wish the kids could just veg and dinner would magically appear.

  5. As I was sitting on teh ledge in teh top of teh basement apartment’s mezzanine, I was struck by inspiration. I can no longer sit adn simply while away my time in this way. I stood up and ran out the door.

  6. on a chair reading and reflecting on life and all its wonderful glory. Sitting is very relaxing and gives you a feeling of being lazy, but so what. I like to sit, I like to reflect, don’t you?

  7. Sitting alone in my thoughts – pondering – all is quiet around me, and all I can hear is the silence and the sound of my heavy breathing.

  8. sitting is awfully tiring, it strains the body. oh but to run, to leap, energy would fill me. but I must sit here, studious as I am.

  11. sitting down is what i’m doing right now. sitting is often comfortable if you’re in a comfy chair and don’t have back problems. however if you’re in a badly made chair or have an ache or both, you will not be comfortable and you’re better off lying down or just standing up. Sometimes legs can fall asleep while sitting. Feet can too. Also you can sit indian style on the ground or in a yoga position, which is a lot more comfortable than an uncomfortable chair.

  12. I’m sitting down right now. the funny thing about sitting is that it immediately indicated a failure to remain standing. That is not necessarily a complete failure on the seated’s part, but more an observation indicated by the word. When I sit, I like to think about my day or read or think and read or lay back and relax or think and relax or think read and relax or smoke think and relax.

  13. Sitting is one of the nicer things one can do with one’s free time. You don’t even need to practice it. Most of us can just do it, no problem. Ah, sitting… I’m doing it right now. Are you? If not, you should be. Go ahead. Give it a shot. There, isn’t that better?

  14. i like sitting down, after a hard day; like today where i climbed a steep hill and after i felt very exhausted. i am sitting down now, i’m sitting still too because i have smoked some wacky baccy and i feel a bit too stoned to move. some animals can sit. not just “Disney” caracter animals: some other types such as bears and elephants (with difficulty) can sit. They don’t have gluteus maxi (MI?) like humans. Maybe that’s why we like sitting.

  15. Sometimes I miss how he used to come to my house and sneak through the door on the first floor of the building. We’d be real quiet and all, and sneak up the steps to my room past the doors of my sisters who were always sound sleepers (although I’ll never know for sure.) He’d sit on my bed and pull out a movie from his backpack, and we’d just sit; and watch.

  16. I am sitting in a room alone by myself it is quite and dark and i feel as if someone should be here to help me fight the feeling of depression. But maybe its not that bad maybe its all just in my head. I will live and continue on through the night find a way to breath listening to the darkness beneath me.

  18. i am currently sitting at my desk at work. it is so bright and sunny outside and i am stuck at this awful desk with nothing to do but write about what i am doing. i am in the basement and there is nothing but halogens to keep me company. i cannot wait to get out of here and sit in the nice warm sun. perhaps jess will take out the hookah.

  19. Sitting, waiting for you
    As eternity passes through.

    Time goes by, and I still do wait,
    I hope I don’t regret this,
    For I’ve left my life to fate,.

  20. sitting is great because we lie to much lol

  21. I have already written about sitting. The fact that it pulled up the same word twice does not sit well with me. I wish I could sit on the programmers head and rub dirt in the hair. Sitting bull would approve.

  22. Sitting on the stoop of the back porch, the cool, concrete contrasted with the sun-warmed patch of ground at my feet.

  23. the cars were just waiting. i don’t know if had to do with the men in front, or if i had part to play. they just sat there. i was wondering exactly why, when they began to move. it confused me. i was just about to leave for home, when i decided id spent all my life wasting away, hoping to find out what would happen if i broke the conventions. destroyed the rules. if i had only 1` wish, it’d be for a glimpse of a rule less world. run the red. break the rules just sit there.

  25. I’m sitting at a laptop.
    On a website.
    Wasting my time,
    my valuable time.

    Why write about sitting,
    when you could write about something
    important
    to you.

    I could be doing better work,
    substantial work,
    Instead of writing this absurd poem.

  26. sitting down,
    sitting up,
    sitting to my left,
    sitting to my right,
    sit down
    sit sit sit
    directions everywhere and everyone shouting orders
    to sit down
    remain calm
    be quiet
    everything will be ok
    sit down
    just remain calm sitting

  27. I’m sitting, I’m relaxing. Sitting bothers my knees at times, but not right now. It feels good to be sitting.
    I love sitting with a dog on my lap. It’s peaceful, safe and warm. Sitting too long can be a bad thing but what is too long?

    I have done baby sitting, pet sitting and house sitting. I have even done all three at the same time.

  28. sitting at my desk wondering why the heck i’m sitting here still at this job. In the beginning it looked like a great career opportunity but now just sitting here i either have nothing to do or too much to do and thinking about all the things i need to do is frustrating. So like i said in the beginning I’m just sitting here at my desk wondering why the heck i’m still sitting here at this job.

  29. Relaxing, legs crossed on the floor with hands lightly resting on knees, Killer contemplated what he had done. He wasn’t sad, but the joy was not there with the adrenaline pumping. Something was missing in this scene

  30. I’m sitting in my chair right now. What if I was standing at my seat. That would lead to the use of all kinds of new muscle group activity, but I’d probably just end up with a bad back. If all the chairs in the world broke, and I had nothing to sit on, I’d lobby for taller desks, so that we wouldn’t have to hunch.

  31. I’m sitting right now on a couch next to my buddy will. I just drank a shit ton of coffee and he’s leaning over my shoulder watching me type this. I suppose most people would have to be sitting while they’re typing away on this test, this is probably the only fucking word that pops up, so you assume that the subject is going to have to write about the fact that they are sitting. So fuck that noise. I want to bone your mom.

  32. I hate sitting down. It seems sort of like a waste of time for me. I mean really, why would you want to sit there when you could be running around, doing things with friends. Stay on your feet until time for you to go to sleep, then lay down. Not sit. Sitting is too boring.

  33. In one sitting, I ate a one pound hamburger. In one sitting, I devoured a horse. In one sitting, I murdered a baby orphan and made chili.

  34. I spend a lot of time sitting. Sitting in class. Sitting at a desk. Sitting at my computer. Baby sitting. Sitting and talking to my friends. Sitting and talking to my family on the phone. I wish I spent more time running or walking or standing or doing other verbs

  35. it’s a still action, you may be working, thinking, aiting, reading.. It allows you to rest, but it’s not the best to do it. If you sit for too long, you might get tired, or feel pain in your buttocks. just don

  36. A major contributor to the obesity of America. An issue that has been exacerbated by our wealth, we should boycott sitting and go out and play!

  37. we are sitting on chairs because it beats sitting on the ground. Especially if you are old.

  38. I’m sitting at the bar with my pants off. I’m scratching my behind. No one seems to mind. If I have a good time. I will sing a folk song, sitting at the bar.. with my pants off.

  39. I was sitting on the porch, trying my best to come up with a clever angle to a boring story designed to entice donors to part with their money, when I noticed the cat sitting beside me, staring intently.

    I bet the cat

  40. I am now sitting in my chair listening to my brother play dance dance revolution. The chair is not particularly comfortable, and I beleive my parents gout it on sale at Target. It is black and on wheels so it rolls. I like the chair a lot.
