Will people please stop using lazy as a synonym for bad writing?

There are so many reasons why someone might be bad at writing and many of them are far from "lazy".

If there's in thing about us lazy folk, it is being able to write as concisely as possible to conserve energy.

Not only is the use of "lazy" rude it is uninformed.

And will people please stop using "uninformed" as a synonym for people who aren't very smart.

There are so many reasons why...
