If you want to kill your time, try these pages:

Well, you have to think in Factory Balls. When I kill my time, I don't want to think. ;)

Not a very popular topic.  :)

I'm thinking of opening another one with title: If you want to kill your computer. Or ... If you want to kill your self!  ;D

Aha! I knew that you would prefer the other title!   :o
(JOKE)

Anyway! I won't open another topic! I think that everyone read this one, has already killed his/her time!   :D

One of these days. Delly became very boring living in legality and order for so long. I started back-up my documents.   ;)

Glad to see that some people have plenty of time and they are killing it with style.

That's very funny! I like it. ;)

I don't know if this helps, yet I enjoy crossword puzzles. Mind you, puzzles that are not TOO difficult. I like puzzles that I can finish in around 15-20 minutes, where I'm sitting. I won't go into any more detail. (haha)

OK... I thought that you meant I have plenty of time.  Me?   :o 8)

Here are two more pages, which will help you kill your time:


http://fallingfalling.com/ (http://fallingfalling.com/)  Have your computer's volume on.

That's not a time waster because you can listen to soothing background noise while doing other things. Thanks. That's worth a bookmark.

I'm old school. For my mobile phone, I like "Unblock Me"
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/unblock-me/id315019111?mt=8

I also like Q*bert, yet Q*bert was much more fun when played on the big stand-up arcade version. Oh well, it's hard to put that in your pocket.

OK. You can kill your time trying to make this wheel go round and round and round. For how long can you do this? (Turn the volume on, to hear the wheel)

I remembered ... an electronic game my cousin played all the time and he didn't want me to touch it, as I was the baby of the company.  :)

BUT: this topic is for ... killing your time, not wasting it. When you don't want to think about anything, just sit and stare at the computer, without any mental activity, no plan, no action at all... I have such moments. Don't you;  ;)

This is another example: move the cursor on each letter, enjoy the color animation and listen ... the melody! (Volume on, again).

I don't blame you, Ria.

Let's make some pop corn  (http://popopopcorn.com/) (volume on) or watch the falling guy (http://fallingguy.com/) (scroll up or down the poor guy).   8)

P.S. It's much better to kill your time instead of having your time killing you (Panos).

Wiki How has an article about How killing time (https://www.wikihow.com/Kill-Time). I disagree with almost everything. Those ways are about using your time. The only point I agree with them is the following:

Go bother someone. Anyone. Whenever someone asks you to do something, say "Would you like some fries with that?" Annoying to them, but fun for you. Annoying people is the best. Try it! Axe bombs, anyone?

This one must be done with care. Staring at people until they're visibly uncomfortable, while fun, can result in confrontation.

Holding your finger two inches from someone's face while saying, "Not touching you!" is entertaining, but risky when done with strangers. Pick your battles.

This doesn't have to be done in person. You could always Rick roll people online or start trolling. If they have any sense at all, they'll thank you.

What do you think?

I guess they could be called "killing time" but the "go bother someone" description is a much better fit. :)

I looked at the 2nd list Killing Time by Gaining Knowledge. I don't think Gaining Knowledge is killing time.
When my husband waits for me, he listens to his mp3 player and reads magazines - if they are interesting.
When I wait for him, I read a book loaded on my tablet or answer emails.

Some things are a good use of time but others are just wasting time.

Thanks for the 7 little words site. I prefer words to numbers. Even though I'm a retired math(s) teacher, I do not like Sodoku. To me it seems like more work than fun.
