Wasting Time Online: Your Faves

[paintnolish]

As finals approach, I need new diversions from paper writing. What are your fave online time wasters? One of my new ones is www.regretsy.com. It has horrible handmade crafts people actually try to sell on etsy.com.

Crap! That's site is blocked at work. I need to remember to go on at home tonight. It sounds hysterical.

And the Dis is my escape site. Sometimes I escape too frequently.

Warning: some of these (the top four) are a bit "naughty", language-wise.

Bad word suggested in the url here, sowwy

Some of the stuff I do on the computer requires an awful lot of "down-time", waiting for something to load or render. These are what I browse while I'm waiting.

Oh, and the site in the OP should actually be www.regretsy.com

Perez Hilton, Facebook, and the DIS are my biggest time wasters

The DIS (duh..), Perez Hilton, Farm Town on Facebook, and www.tumblr.com <--a blog site with lots of pretty pictures and what not.

Hilarious!

My kids LOVE cute overload!
Darsa- Thanks! Quite a list!
Eeyore'sthebest- The site is disturbing- I can't believe some people think others would want to buy some of that stuff!

It's Lovely, I'll Take It = site detailing ridiculous real estate listings. I can spend hours here looking at old posts, and the commentary is hysterical. There is an inside joke about white plastic lawn chairs...

You Suck at Craigslist = daily listing of foolish things advertised on Craigslist. Fantastic commentary; the text accompanying the ads is usually funnier than the ads themselves.

Cake Wrecks = When cakes go terribly, horribly wrong.

Besides that, my daily time-wasters on the 'net (besides the DIS, of course - I am always here ) are LOLCats, Ebay, Facebook and occasionally My Ox is Broken, commentary and interviews on reality shows - gotta get my Survivor, DTWS, and Amazing Race fixes!

Oh, yes, I keep up with Snopes. I am one of those obnoxious people who sends the link back with those stupid email forwards!

 

[OK!]

And the Dis is my escape site. Sometimes I escape too frequently.

Same here, on both counts. I'll check out regretsy at lunch; it sounds hilarious!

Myself and most of the girls at work are addicted to Farmville on facebook.

I enjoy About.com/contests (or something like that)

I like to enter contests every now and then. I once won a trip to Riveria Maya Mexico by entering a contest. It was a BEAUTIFUL 5 star resort.

I have several message boards I go to, including this one, one for celiac's disease, IBS, etc. Facebook is another I spend a lot of time at.

But my biggest addiction is SIMS3, but that's not on-line so I don't know if you consider that to count. But it's my biggest time waster out of all of them. But it's fun, so I really don't consider it wasting time.
