I have tried many methods over the years but I think my tried and true source to kill boredom is the Odd News section of Yahoo news. I guess in retrospect that is sort of boring and old school, since I see alot of people use online game sites, and of course social networking sites are worth a mention.
But seriously, where do you go online when you are bored? Is it because its fun, or to gain insight or knowledge, or to play games, or what?
Its so weird how people can get all types of stimulation from the internet! (Hey, I wasn't talking about that kind of stimulation, lol, just kidding!)
I cant imagine not being able to have information at the tip of my fingers, i cant go back.

I usually would go for a walk with my doggie or take a ride down to some stores just to hang out.

You know what, its kind of sad that no one else mentioned any physical ways to pass the time! Everyone mentioned online activities or watching tv online, lol. But obviously taking your dog for a walk is really important, and it keeps you and your dog healthy. Good for bonding with your dog too. Lots of dogs act out when they dont get anough activity, so you should never have that problem!
I bet you have a happy dog, what kind of dog is it?

Cool, I have never heard of Bukisa, so I will have to try that out. I use Mylot to pass the time at least once a day, and the great thing is that I learn new stuff, find out about awesome websites, and make some change too!

When I am bored, I usually watch anime especially naruto, gundam and bleach. I don't get tired of watching even back episodes. Nowadays, I just log on to mylot and try to answer some discussions.

Can you recommend any sites where you can watch anime on your web browser, without downloading it?
I used to watch Ghost In The Shell, Fushigi Yuugi, and....Dragonball Z. LOL. I cant help it, i love dragonball, i used to watch it all the time when I was young and even though people give me a bunch of crap for it I would still totally watch it today.

If you are not really into games, try the Urban dictionary, it actually gives you out of this world terms, sometimes terms that who have never heard of. Well I find it funny, I hope you would too :) http://www.urbandictionary.com/

Man, this was like the best discussion i ever started because people are helping me remember all of the great sites I used to go to!
I mean, the Urban Dictionary, I LOVE THAT! I must commend you for this awesome recommendation because me and my friends have laughed til it hurts due to some of the words and concepts in there. Totally worth it every time.
Thanks for taking the time to answer, one of my favorite websites too!

When i am bored i ave to find a place to go that is as far away from my present mood as possible. Ususally a shopping or dining excursion is all i need for a cure for my boredom. i try not to let it happen to often. @angelic123 (1108)

What is Youtube for? I prefer to visit in there at least once in a day.But if unfortunately,Youtube is running slow at that time,then I'd probably be playing video games.
