I procrastinate with the best of them. Right now I should be making lunch for my kids but I just spent 20 minutes sitting on a website clicking my mouse on a button. I think I have found the biggest time waster on the internet. Do you agree or is there another one I don't know about? Here is a link to it. Get to clicking. http://www.arcadecabin.com/play/the_big_red_button.html

I also realize there are too many time waste on Internet, I want to reduce the online time, but I cannot change the current situation till now.

Lately, my wasting time was answering discussions in such a way that my responses end up ending so that I end up jump-starting a song annoyingly playing in people's heads. Just now ... There I go repeatedly pushing that red button Singing Doo wah ditty ditty dum ditty doo Oopsie - did I jump-start a song annoyingly playing in your head?

I admit that it's been a bit of a while since i've been actually active here, mostly just reading things here. Anyway, you're not the only one I have been doing that "same thing" to. I think many of my comments when I made it back here have been jump-starting songs annoyingly playing in people's heads.

Oh man, I just spent a good 10 minutes on the damn thing now too! If only us men would spend as much time and attention looking for the female g-spot! The game you can access from this link kept me occupied for a VERY long time: http://splapp-me-do.deviantart.com/art/The-Impossible-Quiz-2-63631070 It'll take a few minutes to load, but hopefully you'll find it as frustratingly addictive as I did!

That quiz drives me up the wall also! This is the "Impossible Quiz 2" as well and the first one's just as frustrating. I did find the first version a tad easier overall though. If I had of known you had PMS, I would've sent you something else. A huge jar of valium and an isolation chamber maybe?

I don't have PMS. I'm just saying sending this quiz to a woman who was suffering is a sure fire way to get your man dangle in a vice. Yes I said man dangle. :)

This is the worst thing you could send to someone with PMS! Are you trying to get someone killed? Frustrating isn't the word I'd use exactly. I got a 3 second fuse bomb on the pick up the key but don't drop it maze...like question 12 or something. It's safe to say I used my skip!

You know you pushed the button. If you got more time to waste take James's quiz. But you might want to self medicate first. It's a doozey.

I know that the browsing consumes plenty of time more than we expect.Now I have finished my days work and relaxing.Instead of going out in the hot sun or glued to the idiot box glaring at those stupids soap I find this mylotting relaxing and fun. I always set my priorities in my days.I do mylot whenever I am free only.

Procrastination is my middle name :-D Fortunately I'm also still very good on getting things done by the deadline (although sometimes it's just minutes before!) I'm staying away from that website for now, I got enough to do, but here is a few fun ones I got from this email list i'm on: http://thisissand.com - make sand castles on your desktop :) http://visibletweets.com/ - type a keyword and see random posts that contain it from twitter

To waste time online i play multiplayer games on the internet.I am addicted to the game tank ball where players have to shoot each others tanks.There are some people i know who play very well in the site.There are also some cheat players who don't die even if we shoot them.I love the game as we get new players in the server it is really fun.I stop the game only if the internet connection is cut.

Hi. There are a lot of things that can be done on internet when you are feeling like "doing nothing". I usually scroll through wallpapers on different sites. My best place for wallpaper scrolling is fabulouswallpapers.blogspot.com

MAN!!!!! You drew me into the red button! I can't resist! Yes, it is because I have nothing else to do. TV is depressing, don't like the reality shows, the newspaper here is to expensive for the nothing that is in it, so I look it up online for free (smart right?), you have everything at your fingertips.

We all probably spend too much time online. My computer room is right off the kitchen so I can cook and use the computer almost at the same time! I do a lot of e-mails with family and friends. I do use it for reserarch - or to look for a particular product that I need. Its much cheaper to search online for something compared to running around to a zillion stores! I won't be on her much soon. It is now 88 degrees and I would much rather be outside...which is where I will be heading shortly!

The worst thing I can do is start dinner then get online. By the time I remember I put water on to boil it is almost completely boiled away. I've ruined more than one meal saying "I'll check it in 5 minutes" lol

If I have nothing to search for I usually catch up on Facebook or Myspace. For example, I am at work right now and not really doing anything but I have internet so I am just responding as much as I can. I use to play games but I easily get bored I have to be constantly doing something

OMG! I LOVE your user name! So few people even know what kumquats are, and right here in my very own discussion is a flirty mini orange. LoL Another user and I made it into a game to try to use the word kumquat and/or anal leakage in every comment we left on each others discussions. Just something else we do to waste time online.

I go into my facebook and play Yoville. Along with many other silly little games. I like games that have pets that you take care of too.

Yes, I am at work right now and I have so many work loads to finish some deadlines to meet, but what I am doing is , mylotting and browsing some online opportunities. that is the biggest time waster , I agree.

I try not to procrastinate when I am online, but it doesn't always work that way. I sometimes end up playing a lot of games or watching videos. I gotta get better though at not wasting time, when I am on the computer.

That big red button thing can be found everywhere and sometimes in different forms. It's addicting but yes can be a big time waster, lol. I've done things to waste time when I could have been making money or doing something else productive plenty of times. Don't feel bad!

I think anything that is not furthering your career, income, education, etc., can be seen to be a waste of time by someone. It's all a matter of perspective.
