That reminds me of my habits. Give me a room with tiled floor, and I would start calculating the center of the room, shortest path to the bathroom, shortest path from the door and so on. My room has those 1×1 foot tiles. My room is 11 tiles in length and 10.5 tiles in width. Distance from door to my PC is 8 tiles, distance from my PC to the bathroom is 8 tiles diagonal. I can tell you a lot more, but I think you got my point.
Bah…When will folks realise that walking is among the best exercises as it causes all major muscle groups to be utilised, without damaging any joints as there are no jerky movements and that taking the longer path, whenever possible, can lead to a few more calories burnt!
The first time I read about displacement….I took the shortest distance from home to the masjid. Straight line meant that …I climbed over walls and went over bushes hehehe…felt dirty but content when I reached the masjid. Had a lot to answer to my mom when I got back home though hehe…
OH ! i do the same i calculate how can i lower down my moves saving energy – just today – i opened the lock of main door for my brother and didn’t pushed it open to save my energy (i did that unintentionally and then i thought i saved some energy )

While walking in these situations, many times I have proved Pythagoras wrong!

Wasting energy is good.
