Crazy games to fight boredom.

    Often, I ring funny numbers with my friends ie 087-muffman, 087-gayballs etc

    What would you do, if you were stuck in an office, or a waiting room, etc to fight boredom? I have epic battles with my rival fingers, transformed into ninja finger men. Sometimes when I'm really bored I even give them faces.

    I'm also prone to hugely excessive doodling when the option is available.

    I'd think up a sentence, and without thinking, I'd begin to find my way around the keyboard so I'd basically be typing the sentence in my head. :confused:

    Careful - just coz it has an 085 prefix doesnt mean its Meteor.
    (Due to mobile number porting... you can change networks and keep your number ;) )

    Great idea though :D

    Watch a movie or play some games on my PSP. If I can find a unsecure wireless network around I might browse the net on it too.

    create a random creature, fill in the details and start calling one of my friends by that.

    Currently i'm calling my housemates. Chipmunk and Shagbunny.

    Chipmunk, is the yoda of chipmunks who wears a trenchcoat, carries a shotgun and grins like nicholas cage.

    Shagbunny, is a black bunny with HUGE hind legs who lives under everyone's carpet smoking cigars. He has a blad spot around his ears and he speaks like winston Churchill.


    previously i had ones like the Buddhist Scotsman and Jesus the homicidal hippie.

    I usually think up bizarre ideas to keep me occupied whem i'm bored, i once spent over two hours on a train think up a plan for to terraform the sahara desert into a lush fertile area using nuclear powered de-salination plants, but unfortunatly mid-brain wave a beautiful blonde sat down next to me, (the train was nearly full) and needless to say my brain suddenly started thinking about other issues :rolleyes: :D

    Regards netwhizkid

    I let a few flies loose from the wheelie bins at work. Chase em round, snatch em in my hand, give em a tarantino-esque speech about life and how theirs is now mine before letting them go but then smacking em down with the supergoals supplement from mondays sun newspaper.

    Ill also sometimes hold a bottle of flyspray in each hand and give the fly's the clint eastwood "do you feel lucky punk" speech while covered in cheese so the flys attack me in matrix "bullet time" mode!!

    I build a fort outta whatever I can find or else become absorbed in a fantasy world where I'm on a desert island with lots of naked men and there's only one pair of boxers for us all to fit into at night:)

    I drum, constantly, on everything!
    Turning fingers into ninjafingers! excellent!
    Build towers out of whatever is handy. These are great in boring classes or the pub.
    Say/Throw things and see what effect they have on impact.
