An ex-bed friend's dad was very much like that. He'd pull into the driveway and blast the horn.
girlfriend "I think dads outside"
I'd cock an ear up "Nup, don't hear him." and i'd turn the volume up on the tv a little.
He'd soon get the idea of coming to the door and knocking "Couldn't you hear the horn ??"
"Nope, made sure i couldn't hear it over the tv...."

Motivation - I want to jack the turtle up and pull the starter motor out so that i can have a look at it. So far the only thing i've done is move the car into the garage, that was about four days ago....
So far all i'm doing is looking it the thing and going, meh, turning around walking to the computer and plugging away on it.
Motivation sucks when you don't have it.
