    OK, so I was bored out of my mind this afternoon, as I am on every single day. I decided to make an outing to the local movie theater to see "Old School." Now I rarely, if ever, see movies by myself. So that shows just how bored I really was.

    Well apparently I read the showtimes wrong in the newspaper and was too late for "Old School." My option was to see "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" or to go back home.

    Hmm... unbelievable boredom to the point that I want to bang my head into a wall at home or a seeing a chick flick by myself. While both make be a miserable loser, I decided to do something new and chose the latter.

    The movie wasn't too terrible. Kate Hudson was stunning to the point that my jaw was dropped for half the film. :eek: Seriously, I had never seen her before and only heard of her by name. Wow, is she hot!

    So my question to you all is... What is the craziest/stupidest/zaniest/silliest thing you've done to overcome a case of boredom? I know someone can top me... right?

    Man, I am bored all the time at school. There isn't much to do so I just start off into space and daydream: "Yes...Yao Ming hits the game winning shot with a pass from Stevie. The Rocket's win it ALL!"

    Then, someone interupts me and I get brought back. One time someone said I looked like I was high when I was doing that. I also had problems when my Spanish teacher asked me something, in Spanish, and I just stood there staring back.

    Walked to get gas instead of driving my car. That killed a good amount of time.

    Once I was so bored, I got on the nearest city bus and rode it until it came back to where we started.

    I've had enough. I've spent the past week watching CNN for at least 7-8 hours per day. You're mind gets warped after a while.

    If you loved Kate Hudson then run, don't walk, to rent the DVD of "Almost Famous"! Get the directors cut if they have it. That'll help relieve the boredom and give you a window of what life was like for folks like me... 3 "odd" decades ago, back in ancient times. :)

    Or, you could go to the park and fly a kite. Seriously. It's fun.

    if you're really bored, you can tell me the formula for this triangle of numbers i've found, i've spent lots of time trying to find one and still can't.


    1
    1 1
    1 4 1
    1 11 11 1
    1 26 66 26 1
    1 57 120 120 57 1

    and so on. i can get each row from the previous row but can't find a formula for each entry. HAVE FUN!





    and if that somehow doesn't print out right in my post i'm gonna kill someone.

    oh that's another thing to do if you're bored, plan someone's murder. it wastes time but you won't go to jail for it.

    I thought everybody posts here when they're bored?

    Oh well, how about...

    masturbate
    Viagra
    masturbate
    Viagra

    repeat until you're bone dry, or you run out of Viagra, whichever comes first...If Viagra gives you a heart attack, you can kill all kinds of time in the Emergency Room...
