Things to do when you're bored:</p>

<p>-Trim your toenails.
-Go to McDonalds and try to order a pizza.
-Go to Pizza Hut and try to order a Big Mac.
-Stand in an elevator, face the back, and argue with yourself.
-Glue a quarter to the sidewalk and watch people try to pick it up.
-Declare your yard a free and sovereign country.
-Write the great American novel, then realize it's not the great American novel since you seceded from America, throw novel away.
-Perform plastic surgery on a doll.
-Cross dress, go to the mall, see how many people notice.

<p>watch your pet.
take the bus.
go somewhere new.
wander mindlessly around a supermarket.
teach a new skill.
play a sport.</p>

<p>download a new multiplayer computer game and start killing all of your team-mates. </p>

<p>I was so bored that I did that once.</p>

<p>I'm completely academic, though I occasionally sprinkle in forums and computer games. But sometimes I just get bored like hell of studying.</p>

<p>or just get a rts game, go multiplayer, and start building fortified walls all over the map. that really annoys people. :D</p>

<p>==
or just download apostol off bittorrent and read it for fun</p>

<p>or just download a book on real analysis or abstract algebra
or just read the last 250 posts of interesting people. I'd recommend sakky and Ben Golub.
or just get spivak + solutions to spivak via interlibrary loan and work on everything in that. I think I'll just do it this summer. I just installed and played age of empires iii and the campaigns are boring, the multiplayer sucks, and the ai still sucks. bah. oh what happened to the glorious old days of age of empires ii?
or go google-stalk someone. There's someone who is very easy to google-stalk but I won't mention his name to you. it's really funny though.
or just go read random articles off wikipedia
or read random stuff off pubmed</p>

<p>or just read some CC debates</p>

<p>Here's one:

<p>Here's another:

<p>You will never get the most that you can out of CC without at least watching an affirmative action debate. :D And a Caltech vs. MIT debate.</p>

<p>Read some good books. I recommend:</p>

<p>Gravity's Rainbow
The Crying of Lot 49
Choke
Everything is Illuminated
Thus Spoke Zarathustra
On the Road
All The King's Men
Tropic of Cancer
Portnoy's Complaint
Nostromo
Naked Lunch
White Teeth
You Shall Know Our Velocity!
Snow Crash
Fear and Trembling</p>

<p>These are just a few good ones...</p>

<p>... how do you google-stalk somebody, and what is it? it sounds kind of fun.</p>
