10 THINGS TO DO WHEN YOU'RE BORED


REVISED!!! After years of neglect, this page has been revised!!

Can't think of something to do when you're bored? Well, look no further! Of course, you might not want to do some or all of these things, but maybe you can at least get some ideas. The things to do are listed from most active to least, and do not need many or any special things. If you see a *,**,or *** at the end of an activity, look at the bottom of this page for the meaning of it. Some things may also include instructions and/or rules or add-ons. HAVE FUN!





1. Run 10 miles. If you can't, just run 1 mile and walk the rest. If you can't do that, watch sports on TV.
2. Plant a hardwood tree, like an oak or maple. Softwoods (like pines) are nice, but hardwood trees don't have annoying needles.
3. Get a FREE diploma online. If you don't know how, just give your email address to tons of online "free gifts" sites, and wait for the spam. Be sure to disable spam blockers, then sit back and wait for the FREE DIPLOMA'S FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF (_insert mispelling here_) ONLINE!!!!!!!
4. Install Linux on your computer. If you already have some Linux distribution installed, try installing OS/2 (much harder, especially on newer hardware). If you don't want to risk destroying data, get yourself an emulator that dosn't say it supports OS/2 and try installing it on that. Getting OS/2 to run on an OS/2 unfriendly emulator is really hard, if you've never tried it, you have been warned.
5. Write a story about someone who, mistakingly thinking ATI's Linux drivers are easy to upgrade, destroyed (for 2 days) his computer trying to do the horrible, thankless, and impossible-to-get-to-work job of upgrading ATI video card drivers on Linux.
6. Get a pet if you don' have one. Sure, they can chew cords, kick, bite, and otherwise cause havic, but they'll add some spice to your life... 7. Teach yourself HTML if you don't know it already. Why? Because then you can see the extreams website go to to put banner ads, popups, and other intrusive ads on their pages. Remeber, when you use Adblock, you're destroying all that hard work (wink, wink).

If you don't like to first suggestions...
1. Play soccer ***.
2. Play tag. **,***
3. Go on a walk.
4. Build something *
5. Make somithing out of clay. *
6. Vacuum the house.
7. Do your homework.
8. Write a letter or E-MAIL to someone.
9. Draw or color.
10. Read a book or magazine.



* Needs special things. Make sure you have the things you need before you start.
** Try playing variations of the game or make up your own kind.
*** Needs at least 2 players.
