And I'm not talking in a philosophical sense. Haven't we got anything better to do than sit here on a forum for five or six hours a day?

Five or six hours...? Dudes. Seriously. I'm on here maybe 30 minutes every day, absolute maximum. And I rarely post, too.

If people need something better to waste their time at home, I'd be more than happy to provide some ideas.

Dude, it's either this or work. What would you do? What would Jesus do? Remember, Jesus was a preachy loudmouth who avoided work just like me.

I dont sit here 5-6 hours a day, I sit here maybe half an hour to 45 minutes and occasionaly 1 hour. But at the same time I listen to music so I really dont feel like Im wasting time or life. I pity you if you actually sit here for that much of your day.

I do what i bet a lot do, multitask.
Readin' the paper and publications, playing guitar, got talkradio on (depending on topic) and awaiting a phone call.
Something like that. And following up on some very, very long posts and threads.

I spend about 1 hour a week here, but i do enjoy the lively debates, if you could call them that. Great range of opinions here most are wrong but heh, fun to wittle them down.

Some of us do other things at the same time. I hop on between classes I'm already prepared for (As I'm doing right now, in fact), and during load times for the 3D RPG I've been hanging around on lately, and while killing things on that same game (Takes awhile sometimes, but with no risk). Also while waiting for replies from people I'm talking to over MSN and such, when they're not half-naked on their webcams (In which case, well, hard to look away.)Multi-tasking is fun.

"Simmons: Hey-
Grif: Yeah?
Simmons: You ever wonder why we're here?
Grif: It's one of life's great mysteries, isn't it? Why are we here? I mean... are we the product of some cosmic coincidence or is there really a god watching everything - you know, with a plan for us and stuff. I don't know, man, but it keeps me up at night.
Simmons: ... What?! I mean why are we out here, in this canyon?
Grif: Oh, uh.... yeah.
Simmons: What's all that stuff about God?
Grif: Uh... hmm? Nothing.
Simmons: You want to talk about it?
Grif: No.
Simmons: You sure?
Grif: Yeah."
