So you're bored, eh?

Post by Nathan F »

So what do you do when boredom sets in? Nothing's going on in r/l, the forums you frequent are dead, nobody's online, you either don't have homework/don't feel like doing it at the moment, etc.

Occasionally I like to just get out and drive. Find country roads in the region of Knoxville and get away from the city for a little while in my Jeep. Maybe dig through my CD's and find some old game for a little nostalgia. Possibly call up an old friend...

I lose myself in a literal mountain of videogames. Especially RPGs. They can consume a lot of that pesky excess time.

I usualy go out when I feel bored. Visiting familly and friends or just moving around the city takes care of boredom.

Write some thing for Moose Rebellion or dig out one of the started fanfics or ideas that I never got round to doing, work on the MR Card game, play video games, read trashy fantasy novels that dont take any effort.

It's limited to one of four things. I'll either start working on my fanfic, play Hundred Swords, go up the pub or put a dvd on.

Blow shit up, play games, or masturbate to porn. Take your pick. ;)

When I'm bored I either listen to music (well, I do that contantly anyway), play games, or write music. That's about it.

Edit : Oh, sometimes I like to look up random crap on Google. Yesterday I was reading about how they perform executions with the electric chair, interesting stuff.

I spend an abominable time on the 'net, not really doing much of importance. Truly, the internet is the tool of the devil to tempt procrastinators.

I'll usually read, draw, play one video game or another (lately it's beating KOTOR for the second time,) or work on the background for a story I had in mind. Now that I'm in a safer area I'll probably get back to riding my bike as well.

I usually play the piano. If I do that and still feel bored afterwards, I take Quizilla or SelectSmart quizzes, do logic puzzles, create something on PSP, or look up something on Google.
