The fact that "pornography" wasn't the first reply makes me believe MR is full of dirty liars

DAMN you stole my line!!!

i normally just cruise MR trying to help out people. there arent as many of them these days so its not as fun.

i generally, however, dont get any spare time anymore

Photoshop or MacRumors!

I update my twitter feeds and look through twitter search for things like the 'swine flu' and 'recession economics'.

That, or, I go outside to play. Like I've done today. It's 80+ out and beautiful.

I usually read -- got tons of books on non-computer subjects.

Also, 1/700th scale ship kits, mostly of the IJN (Imperial Japanese Navy). It isn't a case of simple assembling, but adding microscopic extras made from photoetched brass. My eyesight is getting on in years, so I won't be able to do this much longer.

Learning cooking, as one cannot survive on alone.

I forgot to mention Google Street View. I could waste hours strolling down streets in cities far away..

Once I'm bored with being online itself, I just try to organize my files and make my Mac as good looking as it really can. (This means both organizing my Desktop and physically cleaning the outside of my MBP)

Other than that, if I am really bored I would simply close it and go outside and enjoy the nice day.

MR Spy is my default go to place for relieving boredom.

"I'm fairly sure if they took porn off the internet, there'd only be one website left, and it'd be called 'Bring back the porn!'".

Debate the existence of God on MR

Bored at the comp probably means that I'm at work, and so that means I'm bored at work getting frustrated by Websense.

Lifehacker can be a good way to spend some time and there is the old classic bored.com- both websites capable of chewing up a good amount of time
