    Most days I log onto the computer and go straight to boards.ie then I go to Amazon and look at the shopping offers, then Email, etc.

    SO!! the question is for you!! what sites do you go to every day to kill time. Obviously the answer will be porn this and porn that, however, I can find porn sites by myself.

    Stick your links here.............

    I can't believe no-one has put a link to porn sites yet!
    Probably the easiest way to kill an hour or two during the day :)

    Porn is for unhappy, women-hating neckbeards.

    Surprised it wasn’t mentioned either.

    OK since it's been mentioned twice now I suppose we'd better nip this in the bud. Posting a porn link will result in a ban from AH

    Forget computer games. Play chess instead to give your brain a workout. Go to lichess.org to play against other enthusiasts from all over the world, or play against their computer at all levels. You dont even have to register if you dont want to. And its free.

    Seriously though, the above link is safe and is a good answer in relation to the OP's question.

    Reddit

    Where the worst part of the internet congregates, it is literally the toilet of the internet.

    Irish News Archive - digitised archives of Irish newspapers (local and national).

    It's a bit expensive (€29 a month or €149 a year), but if you're a history nerd like me, it's worth every cent.

    I hear this a lot about Reddit and no doubt there is a lot of idiots there. But for the most part I find the subbreddits I browse to be fine.
    There is a huge amount of valuable interesting content there.
    To completely dismiss it because some areas can be a bit toxic is madness.

    Compared to some places out there it's relatively harmless. With one or two exceptions.

    First go to https://radiooooo.com/ and pick a country, a style and an era.

    Then go to https://www.straightdope.com/ and click the 'read' button to read a random but interesting question.

    Repeat step 2 until you are sate.

    Surprised that Quora hasn't been mentioned yet.

    Spent many an hour reading the articles in it.

    Reddit, subscribe to a few subreddits of topics you're interested in - and a few you'll stumble across - and it's incredible. Spend about an hour everyday on it reading stuff on my feed.

    Dunno how anyone could describe Reddit as the "toilet of the internet" when places like 4Chan exist. Not that 4Chan isn't without its charms, but Reddit is a genuinely superb resource.

    If I want to kill time, it's either Boards, Reddit or 4Chan.

    I agree. I also think it's funny calling somewhere else the toilet of the internet in a post on Boards.

    WW2 History Hunter on YouTube, even if you are not a history buff it's genuinely interesting and insightful.
