anyone else never get bored of being on the PC? i could literally sit here hours doing nothing (although i hasten to add i do have a life away from the PC).

i find my self just clicking through all the sites in my firefox bookmark toolbar every 5 minutes, reloading forum pages etc :o
 
I waste so much time this way... it annoys me. I'm especially bad when I'm buying stuff on ebay... I keep checking all the auctions, searching for the thing I'm after to make sure someone's not listed a really good buy it now that I might miss...

Forums too. Refresh, refresh, refresh.

Need to step away from the PC, or at least do something more productive. Even playing a game would be more productive than the endless refreshing.
 
Yeah i get this, but its so much worse if i need to be doing college work :| il waste hours away doing nothing in particular then be in panic mode trying to get my work done!

Edit: Like now -.-
 
Thought it was just me - I've wasted several hours this holiday doing the same as the O.P. - I'll almost be happy to go back to work on Tuesday. Note I said *almost* :( ...
 
My main job today was to have a tidy up (rooms a tip) + go to asda to use the post office.(Closed....)

got home at 8:30am took the misuses to work
On the computer by 9:15ish
played oblivion till 10 (went to asda)
Back from asda (carried on playing Oblivion till 11:30 to watch F1 2006 review) after that 12:00 / 12:30 carried on playing Oblivion till 3pm , been sitting here for the last hour and a half on ocuk forums and ....still not had a tidy up.

I should really :P

But i do reguarly get bored with the pc but i find that is due to the lack of sleep

I quite easily get bored on my PC, but the internet, constantly updating, instant communication full of anything you want; that keeps me on a computer.

:)
 
Yeah, I spend too much time doing nothing really online. Been playing the Wii and Scrabble recently though too which makes a nice variation :D . I now have a new project to get on with too so mabye that'll help :)

Same here. Me and my fiancee are sat in my room which is a ****ing pigsty after Christmas, we keep saying we'll tidy up... I'm on here, she's watching Eastenders. By the time this evening rolls around it'll probably still be a pigsty.
 
LOl yeah its a pain , just dam right lazy i am tbh.. i need to do this before 7pm as the missues gets home (Shock)
 
I thought I would waste less time online when the pc was out of the living room but alas no. I'm always inbetween doing more important things then check the pc, before you know it a couple of hours have passed and I've wasted most of the day.
 
Tell me about it I do the refreshing the forum or just reading carp on forums every minute.
Was in my bed using laptop yesterday at 12pm and was there bored,so I planned to get out of my bed at 1.30 and do my portfolio work. I remembered a forum which I hadn't been on for a week,went on that and 4 hours later I've realised I've wasted 4 hours.

Worst was when I did my GCSE and AS Levels,instead of revising I was just reading what people wrote on this forum and wasting my time.
 
Started :P got rid of the coke cans :E , changed the bed... :D ... ill just do the rest tomorrow :E mmwhahah
 
i find i get stuck doing the same thing when im on my own, got lots of games i could pass the time with while im waiting to go out this evening but instead im sat here lurking around on ocuk for the past 30mins
