Things you can do with absolutely nothing:

Push your eyes for interesting light show:
(Amusement Potential: 1-5 minutes) See a variety of blobs, stars and
flashes. Try to make out things-is your subconscious trying to send you
a message? Can you control what you see by pressing different areas with
different forces? Would it be possible to somehow see the same effects
on TV?

See how long you can hold your breath:
(Amusement Potential: 4-20 minutes) Not that much fun, but it sure
passes the time. Play with a friend, or try to beat your own personal
best. Some tips: hyperventilate before hand, and stay as still as
possible.

Try to not think about polar bears:
(Amusement Potential: 1-5 minutes) This is especially hard, because by
trying too much, you remember what you were trying to avoid thinking of.
If you try too little, you end up thinking about polar bears anyway.

Scratch yourself:
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes) Go ahead, scratch yourself now. Even
if nothing itches, go ahead. Doesn't that feel pretty good?

Hurt yourself:
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes) What is pain? Why is it unpleasant?
There's nothing physical about it - it's all in your mind. Plus, after
pinching yourself for awhile, boredom will seem nice next to being in
pain.

Try to swallow your tongue:
(Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes) There's not much to say about this
one. It is possible.

Look at something for awhile, shut eyes, study after image:
(Amusement Potential: 2-5 minutes) Another great time waster. It takes
about 30 seconds of staring to create an after image, and the image is
then viewable for about the same length of time. Fun to combine this one
with pushing on your eyes.

Get yourself as nauseated as possible:
(Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes) Best achieved by reading prefab cult spam
from Share International. This is also entertaining due to the "makes boredom
seem a lot better" effect
(see "Hurt Yourself").

is your subconscious trying to send you
a message?
