I have the entire Internet at my fingertips...

...and yet I'm bored.

What do you do to entertain yourself online?

Me? I've pretty much memorized TVTropes. I particularly like reading the Real Life examples.

I waste hours and hours watching (or at least listening to) episodes of The Atheist Experience on YouTube.

Although frankly, I have the same problem.

I've spent the last three hours listening to music from Banjo-Kazooie. I tell you, Grant Kirkhope is a freaking genius.

I try to recall various games, songs, shows, and books from my childhood and find them online. The nostalgia orgasm is quite pleasing.
Guys, this is getting creepy. Can we talk about cannibalism instead?

For the past several days, I've been reading Wikipedia articles on serial killers. Wikipedia is my TV Tropes.

TvTropes, Wikipedia, Archive of Our Own, FSTDT, and Tumblr. I also particularly like real life examples of tropes.

I tend to explore nostalgia, or I take whatever mood I'm in and research it and anything related to it.

I also browse the forums.
