nightwolf Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 (edited) So we've all been there, sat in on either a sunny day or a crappy one like today, staring out wondering what to do with your time. Personally I felt it was a good idea to list stuff you do on a day like that, give each other ideas for when they have nothing to do! My list - Bake (cakes, muffins, meals etc) - Go to the cinema - Go to the park, there's so many lovely ones around sheffield - Find a new sport - I recently took up kayaking! - Tidy and sort through my room (yes this might be a boring one, but honestly it feels great afterward.) So what do you do when it boredem strikes? Edited August 13, 2010 by Mr_Odwin
Serebii Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Recently, I've been playing solitaire in times of boredom. However, usually I do the following; ~Go to a walk into town ~Go spend some money ~Code an arseload of PHP ~Watch a Doctor Who DVD

Pit-Jr Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Its Boredom, not Boredem I proofread when i'm bored
martinist Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Right now i'm watching the sudden swarm of house martins that have descended onto my street other than that i'll probably go for a walk or stick in a DVD ...or masturbate
The Bard Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 I'm never really bored to tell you the truth, I love having fuck all to do, lying in bed for hours at a time with some music on and day dreaming my life away. Also: I play Company of Heroes. A lot.
Paj! Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 I usually only get really bored at night, and if so, I just go to bed.
dan-likes-trees Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 I find it hard to get bored in this day and age Draw Check twitter / facebook / NE Bake Get a friend round Draw some more Play rollercoaster tycoon. What a classic. Park and have a read if it's hot, which currently it's completely not.
ReZourceman Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Its Boredom, not Boredem I proofread when i'm bored When I get bored, I make YouTube videos. This post inspired me.
Grazza Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 Play rollercoaster tycoon. What a classic. Too right, it's the game that never gets old (and the coaster designer in RollerCoaster Tycoon 2). For me, boredom's a thing of the past. Technology is so good nowadays, it's hard to get bored with the internet or games consoles, not to mention a huge number of TV channels just on Freeview. Then there's going to work, exercising, eating, housework etc. I haven't been bored for at least 10 years!
Raining_again Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 lets see, I've got the 3 routine ones: facebook/forum/msn I've been going to the gym a lot lately and it seems to cure some of my boredom... Either that or stick on the 360/wii or if its getting late I go to sleep.
Coolness Bears Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 I don't get bored. What I do changes from day to day. At the moment it's watching The Nanny/Chuck/reading X-men/Playing Perfect Dark XBLA. Though sometimes when I get in from work my brain is too tired to do concentrate on anything so I stick on Friends or Hannah Montana, or strangely write my book, i like to get into the flow of it.
ReZourceman Posted August 13, 2010 Posted August 13, 2010 reading X-men Comic thread. Tell us what you're reading.

Supergrunch Posted August 14, 2010 Posted August 14, 2010 I find boredom is generally a result of a lack of effort on my part, either in something I'm currently doing or something I ought to do. The best enjoyment comes from things you work at.

The best enjoyment comes from things you work at. I agree with this. If I'm bored, it's because I'm too lazy to actually do something about it.
Beast Posted August 14, 2010 Posted August 14, 2010 Well, when I get bored, I either watch True Blood or Dexter or some other awesome television show, read reviews or a book, write my book, watch and review movies or check my websites (N-E, Wordpress and Rotten Tomatoes)
Diageo Posted August 15, 2010 Posted August 15, 2010 I agree with this. If I'm bored, it's because I'm too lazy to actually do something about it. Exact same here, I have plenty of stuff to do. Just too lazy to do it.
