| If you're not bored right now, what exactly is entertaining you, or at least taking your mind off of the reality that there's currently no entertainment to be had? Most people are always thinking, right? What are you thinking about, that doesn't leave room for boredom? Tell me your secrets to being not-bored, I'm dyyyinggg... |

| Well, this is an anime forum. Pretty sure everyone's gonna say watch anime/read manga. Which is also what I recommend. |

There are also plenty of manga, you just haven't looked hard enough. |

| Being creative. Perhaps you should try to explore some artistic expression? It's very stress relieving. |
| I'm bored as hell too in class atm T_T I just browse MAL, do some modding, post in clubs/threads or chat on discord. If your boredom is really bad you can always try looking for a new game to get addicted to. |
| kys is one way My schedule is too tight for me to be bored . I don't know , games maybe ? i sometime watch some dank videos on youtube to entertain myself too |
 |
| Watch anime. Dunno how you can't find something to watch when you completed less than 300. |

Chandela said: Being creative. Perhaps you should try to explore some artistic expression? It's very stress relieving. My artistic abilities are depressingly poor, and I certainly wouldn't be able to find any sort of motivation or desire to improve myself. There's also economic and time restrictive factors... (I'd have to pay and allocate time to taking any sort of artistic self-improvement course, or at least purchase relatively expensive equipment; things like musical instruments just aren't cheap enough for the casual fling I'd use it for). Aka, more trouble than it's worth; I'd be better off just getting too drunk to comprehend boredom. Ulquiorra said: Watch anime. Dunno how you can't find something to watch when you completed less than 300. I have a pretty good idea of what type of anime/manga can entertain me, and I simply can't find any more. From taking other peoples' recommendations, I had to drop the last 5 or 6 anime I tried. |

Get a job in all seriousness though I go to mal when I'm bored. Normally I either watch anime, read manga. When that fails I watch movies or tv shows on netflix. I also play video games sometimes. Ofc now that my desktop is dead..I mostly play browser based games, or retro games using an emulator. |

Doesn't make me any less bored; just adds a bit of occasional stress. I do like retro games, but I only really play them (games in general) with friends, and they're all asleep right now, which adds to boredom. |

Yeah but you have less time to be bored because of that. I'm still bored when doing that; I simply have no other alternative during those times. Discounting those times, I seek to achieve a state of non-boredom. |

Smoke some weed..wont necessarily make you less bored..but most things are better on weed. Like you don't even need good animu...just find a series with vivid colors...and you will be set. |

I can't really smoke weed, if fks up my head for too long. Like, I won't be able to think straight for the entire week. Admittedly, it does make things less boring. |

| Read something, anything. Go to some ebook website, Wattpad between others, pretty sure you can find some stories you'd like. |
 |
| Besides visiting here, I just... Yeah, fuck, idk what I do.. Sometimes I'll read and game but usually I just waste my time so lol |
| Music, streams, reading through ICD, new discoveries etc and going out briefly for something to eat sometimes has an effect. Usually I play a game but I've gotten so much worse in aoe 3 that I don't want to play and I got rsi from osu so I restrain myself from playing it to some extent. |

Rarusu_ said: Alcohol works quite good if you are in a really shitty place, but lateley I've felt that it doesn't have the same effect on me anymore. Music is good to have in the backgound. That is perhaps the most pathetic thing ive ever heard. Alcohol is fun, or rather the social aspect of drinking is fun. Where as sitting at home, getting plastered by yourself is depressing as fuck. Its classic escapism. |
| Well I have to be at school seven hours a day so that keeps me occupied... Sleep. Browse MAL. Watch anime. Wow my life sounds sad. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| don't use your internet browser for a week, your probably are always on youtube or facebook and have the world updated 24/7 you should relax with a nice game like europa universalis IV, Tropico 4 and Democracy 3 if not just do something you haven't considered doing like running or watching weird shit like this NSFW: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeMvUlxXyz8&ab_channel=MIAVEVO NSFW! NSFW! NSFW! NSFW! or watch something you don't usually watch like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAIx-UXieFI&ab_channel=KashaTheriot or this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6qtLWwJq9U&ab_channel=hanonomiri |

| Murder people in Yandere Simulator and then cry in your attic because that's cringy shitty junk. |
 |
| Play video games, watch anime, read manga, try and do some cleaning around the house, go for a jog. Stay productive if you're bored and of course watching anime is being productive because you have so much to finish. Senpai would know. |
  |
| Being creative or doing artistic things can quickly cure your boredom + it seeps time away quickly. Other than that... I guess gaming and mindless browsing? Like forums, yt videos, articles, internet stores, etc. |

Well, I don't jog, because my treadmill broke, and if I jog without anime or something playing, I instantly die of boredom. juui said: Being creative or doing artistic things can quickly cure your boredom + it seeps time away quickly.

That site redirected me to some really bad card trick site, that tried some sort of card trick that failed miserably. |

| Since you're so bored by the real world maybe indulge in a little foolishness. Go out and do some karaoke or something that forces you to express yourself outwardly. Also if you have any fears conquering them can be pretty exciting. Put yourself in situations that put you out of your comfort zone or are out of the ordinary. My main suggestion would be when you give something a try not to give up on it after just a short period of time. You may have to break down some mental walls in order to lessen this boredom. It may not be fun at first but after awhile maybe you may start to enjoy yourself! ;) |
| i usually just eat when i'm bored... |
| indulgeing urself into escapism hobby liek animu/videogame inded can be of many bore & tiresome try ur create own thing. draw, paint, write, or even code stuff even if ur thing is baad, foel of accomlish something still wortwhile imp ex. am scirble bad into paint using computer mouse lol!! |
| Make interesting friends. Get to know them better |
| Currently hanging out with friends. Outside my friend's apartment Waiting for her to finish fucking. Before we go up. |
| Just embrace the boredom sit and do nothing till you start to enjoy the nothingness |
 |
| Listen to old Coltrane albums and play chess with someone |

I've given it a shot, the times I'm most bored tend to be at night, when it'd basically wake up the entire apartment complex.

That's not too bad; I can actually recognize the character lol. I guess it's worth a shot. Peco said: Make interesting friends. Get to know them better Making friends is like, the most troublesome thing thinkable, and probably will be for my entire life. And I do mean actual friends, and not just friendly acquaintances. It's generally not worth the effort though, because 99.99% of people are boring, so I'd have to make ~1000 friends before probability suggests that I would have an interesting friend. And I'd probably be buried by then. RedTie said: Right now? Pouring free time into gaming. Just sitting down and forgetting about everything else after a good work week. Gaming gets pretty repetitive an rather monotonous after a while.

I'm not bored but I do really hate writing things down. After trying to give Japanese a shot, I've found that I'm waay too lazy to learn a foreign language. I'm also really bad at them in general (I learned like, 3 levels of Spanish and 4 levels of Chinese, but forgot nearly all of it).

When I was younger, my parents and teachers were always angry at me for drawing and being unproductive =( Now I have no motivation to draw stuff |
| Be thankful for the wisdom granted to you. |
| when I'm really really bored I opt for movies or music or I randomly go for a walk or other stuff like drawing, writing or whatever works best for me. I guess, even working out might be good haha |

| There is a practically unlimited amount of entertainment media available at your fingertips. Stop wasting your time moaning about shit and discover new things. |
 Anime is good, fucking deal with it. |
| This is literally cancer. Go kill yourself. It'll end your boredom and everything. |
| Wtf, stop making threads about boredom on mal and actually do something. The only reason you are bored is because of your laziness and apathy. The world suddenly hasn't got boring, it's full of possibilities to explore and discover and there are tons of things that can keep you occupied. |
| Do something productive, like learn a language. |
 |
| I cure my boredom with anime and games |

You're right, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm too lazy and apathetic to find anything other than boredom in the world. |

| Make a daily schedule so you're always doing something rather than being bored. It's how I live my life ;o |
  WORK IN PROGRESS ~The frog leapt forth to my lilypad memory.~ I was indoctrinated by an inamorata rabbit, Adenomata affronted. It was the verecund, dismissed creatures That I jubilated in most. This rabbit I would nurture, At the aiguille of esse, The anneal of noblesse. ❤️ Birdie ❤️ |
