Sometimes I go to those trivia or study quiz sites and take quiz after quiz after quiz (you can go for *hours*). Also, I’ve seriously been known to read through old textbooks, on multiple subjects (Physics, Chemistry, History, etc).

I do check up on my hundreds of RSS feeds but other than that I don’t think I’ve done any of those things when I’m bored. I do however use stumbleupon from time to to time.

Good one!

I never get bored! Yeah, generally catch up on RSS feeds or if no computer at all – I just grab my notepad and write down ideas/thoughts for future posts.

Cheers!

Heh interesting list Paul. Yet no, I don’t do any of those on the list. Maybe this means I’m not a geek :-O

It means that only a small number of people have knowledge of it. Take Paul’s example of Chef. It’s likely that he’s the only one here who’s ever written anything in it, or even heard of it for that matter.

I wrote it in about 1 minute, too bad my FizzBuzz php code doesnt display properly on here. Paul, you can delete that comment if you wish.

FizzBuzz in PHP:

for ( $i = 1; $i \n”;
}
elseif ( ( $i % 5 ) == 0 )
{
print “Buzz\n”;
}
elseif ( ( $i % 3 ) == 0 )
{
print “Fizz\n”;
}
else
{
print $i . “\n”;
}
}

I do check my site stats when I’m bored. As for the last point, they do bore you more.
