    Myself I just get on Empty Closets. Lately that's my new habit when I'm bored. Otherwise I attempt writing something worthwhile or just binge on reading if I can focus.

    How do you deal with boredom?

    I also go on EC, but besides that I go for a walk/cycle, tidy up anything disorganised, play a simple game like Tetris or read stupid articles on the internet.

    I watch videos on youtube, come here, play video games, do homework, draw, write, do any other craft that I'm trying to do at the moment, watch anime, watch cartoons etc.

    I have different hobbies, but I can't stand doing nothing. I made the mistake of finishing all my homework, finishing my current video game, finishing my novel and finishing my current series now. Yesterday, I got bored. I wanted to draw stuff, but I needed to install my graphic tablet and it got complicated, so I ended up doing nothing :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I feel the same! Although I wish I had more hobbies, but I'm working on it. I like to read but its usually nonfiction because I'm just too picky when it cones to fiction.

    I suppose I should start reading LGBT books though.

    I don't deal with it. When I am truly bored, even doing things I like isn't fun, because they're the same things I do every single day, because for a broke guy in a very small town, there is nothing else to do.

    So mostly I just sit here, fuming. Because unfortunately when I get bored, I get angry. Terrible answer, but that's basically it.

    I come here. I don't mean that in a bad way, just as in when there's nothing else to do, this is where i go. Sometimes i work on my conlang, or do homework, watch youtube, or read a book, wank, sleep or i'll find something to do.

    I like to read low-scoring reviews! There's something about that pure anger, it can really amuse me

    Come on EC, or play games on my phone, or listen to music. try to watch tv till something embarrassing happens on the show and i turn it off so that I can shove my face in a pillow till the 2nd hand embarrassment passes.

    Reading.

    Which actually gets rid of the boredom. So I'm essentially never bored.
