If you're like me, you get bored sometimes. It's natural! It happens.
Here are a few suggestions of things you can do! To alleviate boredom.
You could:
- type the word "please" after a url
- make up band names--then draw logos or sketch the band members!
- interview yourself and submit the transcript to TIME magazine
- make a video of yourself lip-synching your favorite song and post it on youtube.com
- learn a foreign language or two
- ensure you drink 8 glasses of water a day
- write your mother a letter
- shovel the snow or cut the grass (seasonal)
- type things in all caps
- memorize some song lyrics (I highly endorse this!)
- invent something
- plot and execute a robbery
- reminisce
- speak in an accent
- try a new drug
- spraypaint something onto your car (regular spraypaint works fine)
- get a fuckin job maybe???

I have a tendency to plan out emergency plans for the wost possible scenario when I'm bored. For example, I'm waiting in line at the bank. What if some nutjob comes in with a gun and tries to rob the bank? Am I going to lie down and give in to his demands? Am I going to be the hero. Yeah, fuck yeah, I'm going to be the hero.
Now lets see, this nylon band that is keeping the lines separate could be used as a whip; it could also double as a noose. That rent-a-cop looks like a pussy. When he gets scared, I can go grab his gun, and then climb that wall and get a good vantage point on the robber; my CS skills will come in handy, I think to myself.
Once I'm lauded as a hero, whats my play? Call myself a badass and pick up chicks, or say its what any one else would have done?
This is what I do when I'm bored.

Has nothing to do with this post, but you should read this:

Thank Paul for the recommendation/find.
I read that in a collection of non-fiction from that year, edited by Dave Eggers. It's really good.
update ur dang blog
When I am bored, I like to add the phrase "to the painfully alone" to the end of band names.
Example: "The Velvet Underground for the Painfully Alone"
I just life-tilt-bought a shitty acoustic guitar from Amazon. Will this be the best tilt-choice I ever make? STAY TUNED
