Dragonflight Season 4 Content Update Notes
The War Within Alpha - Delves Feature Overview
MMO-Champion
I am at work this week - I have coped the last 2 days but I have now reached an all time boredom high.
I have read my usual web sites, bored of playing on my i-phone, cant play any computer games (I can get on the Internet but it is work so no games)...
Any ideas that will get me through the next few hours?

Time will go faster if you actually do some work.
Also, take a long lunchbreak helps

Hmmm I hadn't considered doing any work.... I always consider the days between Xmas and new year dead days. I am an I.T. manager and we always have a change freeze on during this time, so its either fix stuff thats broke (hardly anyone here so not many calls coming in) or paperwork and paperwork can kiss my fat ass
But cheers for the suggestion.

Old school solution but try scrunching waste paper (preferably that paperwork) in balls and throwing them from across the room into a bin. Its surprisingly fun and I've literally wasted hours doing it before.

Hahaha, if you're alloud to have any visitor's while you're "working" I would suggest bringing a friend or possibly your gf to work with you to keep you entertained, the office roleplay with your girl is always hot dude

Ill give the paper tossing game a go - sounds like it could be fun
As for bringing the Missus down - I am married with kids so she has the kids, plus I don't get sex at home so no way she is popping down to the office for some
Also I share my office with the other I.T. dudes and there is one other guy in - he might not be too keen on me "getting it on" in front of him, and the office has 2 large glass walls that looks out onto a big open plan office which is full of people. I do like the idea though - mostly because it involved me having sex lol.

How about some web browser games? Or if you have looked at your "usual web sites" check out some new ones?

Get stumbleupon and watch your life dissapear. Also, Cracked, todays big thing, Cyanide and happiness, hyperbole and a half (personal favourite)...
Here's my star suggestion though. Minecraft can be played in browser. Nuff said.
Hyperbole and a half - Seven games you can play with a brick.Last edited by Robofish; 2010-12-31 at 10:39 AM.

Story of my life. Only I'm a kitchen porter, so it's harder for me to access a computer. Originally Posted by lynesman

xckd.com is a bunch of funny comics. I also like cracked.com and I always make sure to read the newspaper and check up on news on the Yahoo.com homepage. Another good website is howstuffworks.com or mentalfloss.com. I work at the front desk of a hotel and get bored easily too! After I get the lobby wiped down, vacumn, and do any paperwork that's really the extent of my job which takes maybe 2 hours if I stretch it out out of an 8 hour shift. I usually farm leather on my laptop. I work overnights and only ever see my boss maybe 3 hours a week! It's so nice

Im also in the IT, maintaining a network + infrastructure for a couple of other companies.
As for this moment, we were told yesterday to only finish what we still have here and dont take on any new stuff.
1 hour ago we had everything repaired and are just chilling now!
