Hi all

I was just wondering what you do to entertain yourself when your bored.
What websites you go to, what hobbies you partake in, etc etc etc.

Well what do you do?

I think that goes for pretty much all the people on the boards doesnt it.

Im just interested how people kill the boredom that a slow day can inspire.

For me, its - playing guitar, researching material for my website (see sig) training Shaolin, watching films, playing vid games, sometimes this forum, my forum (see sig) Writing music, making websites.

WOW, various Wii and Gamecube games, Star Wars rpgs, the Sims.

Sounds like quite a mix.

WOW? I never tried that, more on principle than anything.

Where do you go for walks?

I often go cycle riding around forests and abandoned railway tracks :)

Oh yeah, I also watch a fair amount of TV.

I went for about 5 years with only about 5 hours of composited TV-viewing. I rediscovered it my last year of college, when I finally lived in a house WITH a tv, and it's amazing.

I watch the News Hour with Jim Leher every weekday night. Then either a couple of PBS documentaries or whatever series I'm currently viewing through my mail-in movie service (now I'm on Babylon 5 and Arrested Development). On Thursday night I have Star Trek night with a bunch of friends (many of whom play CC, by chance... they found it on their own). We're actually watching Firefly on Star Trek night these past few weeks, but just as a brief interlude.

Every Sunday, except during the summer, I watch Masterpiece (formerly Masterpiece Theater). During the summer it's Masterpiece Mystery (formerly Mystery), which doesn't interest me.

My brother gave me Final Fantasy XI for Christmas the year it came out, and I really liked it, but eventually got too busy for it, and quit. Then, last year, my best brasileira amiga received WOW from HER brother for Christmas, and really encouraged me to come play with her, so I did. Now I'm more into it than her, surely.

I live right next to a park that's only one block wide and about 2 miles long with a stream running through it. When it's warm I like to wade down the stream for the length of the park. Usually I walk down to the university in my city, which is gigantic and has a very pretty campus, and do a whirlibout down there, or over to my favorite coffee shop, which is about a mile from my house.

Yeah, I've played KotOR1 through three times, and KotOR2 light side, and am working on dark side now. I'm interested in Galaxies, but simply cannot commit to another mmorpg at this time. I'm going to rent Lego for the Wii this weekend, I think, if I finish KotOR by then.

Galaxies... I'd like to but... I won't be sick of WoW until at least the end of this year, and by then Star Trek Online will be out!

It is serious. Nothing more so.
Including-shall i bother with the tissues this time? Ah, the dilemas of the devoted wanker.

Yep, the average wanker is faced with many a dilemma that must be solved in order to achieve a high rate of success. Example: should machinery be involved? Only one of the many questions a wanker is faced with.

Yes, the "Machino-Wank" is tricky. Less so if you dont mind a bit of blood.
Of course we've discussed quality vs quantity before.
But sometimes it comes down to basics:
Visual stimulation, or the good old Wank Bank inside your head aah.

I'm currently still on Wicked and her pink panties.

Read a book, Xbox 360 (Halo 3 and Mass Effect), wait until my next turn, IM, and day dreaming.
