imo, i can compare it to laziness. xp is all about being lazy. but the context matters here.

one lazy is just coping pasting stuff. other is drying as you go. i have already written this line, why am i reapting it again. let me dry it. extract it, so next time i need not. no two lines in my code should match. if they do extract. i am lazy here. cause i don't want to copy paste next time. i am lazy and will just dry. second lazy is more what lazy means.
