17 Random Things to Do When You Are Incredibly Bored

Bored? Help is at hand! Pass away the pointless hours with this list of things to do when you’re bored.

  1. Fast forward songs to make them sound like Alvin and The Chipmunks! – Song:It ends tonight and Glamorous!
  2. Start laughing randomly until people start to stare… then stare back
  3. Try to make a reservations at McDonald’s

  4. Make a dumb answering phone message – “hey…..what’s up…..nothing much…..watcha doing…..i’m not doing anything…..i gotta go…BEEEEEEP…leave a message after the tone”
  5. Have a staring contest with the ceiling.
  6. Set up your Christmas tree…in May.
  7. Talk to yourself.
  8. Buy 100 pencils then sharpen them… with a butter knife.
  9. Throw a tomato in a fan.
  10. Donate your pet’s body to science!
  11. Go up to random strangers and poke them.
  12. Go up to a random person and say ” you’re my new best friend!”
  13. Go up to a homeless person eating a big mac.
  14. Lock yourself in a bathroom until you pee your pants.
  15. Finish your homework – not recommended most likely to make you more bored – then if you don’t do your homework… think of excuses to tell your teachers :D

  16. Try to make the worlds largest ice cream cone

  17. Sleep… Zzzzzzzz

    CP, this is cute! I think my favorite is to make the world’s largest ice cream cone. I already talk to myself. Do not. Do too. Do not. Do too. Be quiet. Okay.
