Does anyone have a certain game they play in their head while they wait through something unpleasant or coma-inducingly dull?
Sometimes, if I'm sitting through a particularly boring slideshow in class (or anything else,... funerals, fr'instance) I try to think up ten American cities beginning with A (keeping tally with extended fingers). Then ten more beginning with B, and so on. For an added challenge, exclude any burgs in your home-state. It's too easy when you include little towns nobody cares about, like the one I am from.
Anyone else have a time-passing game?

Sometimes I try to see who I can name more of:
the 9 members of the Wu-Tang Clan
or
the 9 justices of the Supreme Court.
Wu-Tang always wins.

Well there's always the game where you imagine an attractive person of the opposite sex nude. It's how I got through most of college.

i am not creative, i end up counting something in the room. i'm always surprised at the outcome tho. who knew that there were 18 ceiling panel block thingies per row in carswell 208? facinating.
sometimes when i'm bored at work, i see how many mw messageboard threads i can comment on while trying to ensure that my comments at least seem relevant.

awesome!! i never win anything. except when i went to see the spiderman2 premier at midnight in winston-salem, and i won a free spiderman-head keychain that was supposed to light up but didn't. but i don't think that really counts because the prize sucked. wait-- what's the prize for this one?

I think you win an autographed picture of Matt, except he signs it "Cedric the Entertainer". It'll be worth something, someday.

When I am bored, I try and see if I can name all the songs on each of the albums I own. I own alot of albums, so I rarely get futher than Cibo Matto alphabetically.

does Cibo Matto go in the C's or the M's? The C's of course because they're a group. Now if it were a solo artist, like Nellie McKay, It'd go under the M's.
