  1. JUST STOP CURSING JEEZ ITS LIKE TALKING TO JUNIOR HIGH AND HIGH SCHOOLERS AND IM A FRESHMAN IN HIGH SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!! YET I DONT CURSE!!!

  2. like this random fact:
    If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in the air, the person died in battle; if the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died as a result of wounds received in battle; if the horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died of natural causes.

    there impress your freinds with that

  5. Just stoppin in to say “greetings”. Actually I don’t know why I’m here. That begs the question, do any of us know what we’re doing here? Sadly – no. God never existed, and I’ll end up shitting my pants soon. Not today, not tomorrow but soon.

  6. Hey,

    Why is everyone getting so agressive? /boredom is fun1 It gives you time to think.
    P>S I think that language on this site is disgusting.

  7. Damn! Everyone has the right to say or do whatever. If you want to curse than do it, if you smoke weed, great, cuz i do. And if you dont like what people have to say on here then F****** Leave the site. Yeah this is all entertainment. Just look at some of the bullshit tv shows.

  8. me and my girlfriend will make a movie so all of you should watch it…except for our parents of course.

  9. Lol, ive only read a handfull of comments and the ‘sensible’ people, you need to learn how to write. and LOL at legalising weed, i think they should though (Y)/

  10. if you guys are bored you guys can stop chatting and go play with your friends. boys go play football and girls go play soccer. i play football all the time. or sometimes i play stell misligah is where your find a wife or a husband. i play it with little children i thick hannah
    dose to.

    PLAY FOR LIFE!!!

  11. alrighht , uhm .. you guys literally suck at giving ideas for stuff to do when your bored. and we reallly don’t neeed your litttle side conversations , if it matttters that much you honestly neeed help. so yeah , my advice wwould be stare at wallll and think about rainbows , or practice your typing skillls while eattting a popsicle , or my favorite learn everyword to a song by printing out the lyrics but only reading willl on eye open.

  12. CHILDREN I KNOW YOU ARE HAVING FUN CHATTING BUT PLEASE DONT CURCE ON THE INTERNET OR I WILL HAVE TO CALL YOUR PARENTS AND REPORT THIS TO THE COURT

  15. omg is this all u people ever do, im bored as fuck and i have been sitting in my chair listeneing to u guys complain about being bored, go do something, and now i am just writing coz i am bored, why dont u text people, go get smashed by your self in your room, and just do random shit to piss people off now i cant stop writing lol and now u just keep reading this coz i have better ideas than any of u other people who say just read or cook, reading is gay, and i dont care if this is c childrend website it is funno when children read something like this but i am a bad person jks haha lol well im gonna go and get smashed, if u were sane u would 2 cyaa

    1. No maytee… if were sane we wouldnt. Why dont you get a f’n life and stop encouraging little kids to fck thier lifes up.. U do that if you want, good on you, u already soun pretty messed,but dont post on here acting rock solid coz ur gonna go get smashed..and yeah, its so funny when a kid reads this and dies before there 21, haha funny, ur sick mate.. u seriously need help.

  16. Most of you peoples spelling is disgusting
    you are shameful to the very very few smart americans out there

  17. kay for starters, none of you can spell for shit and sound like a bunch of 13 year old kids arguing about painfully retarded subjects. but i guess in all the chaos and confusion this has occupied your time, therefore the purpose of this site has awkwardly been served, ignorant chodes XD

  18. omg i didnt know this is american, this is sik lol, im australian, but yer some americans can be dumb shits sorry 2 say 🙂 this is funny lol, im not actual bored i just woke up but all of u people are complaining about spelling and i dont really cive a shit ( and i know i spelt complaning wrong, or how ever u spell it) but yer get a fucking job, as gay as that may sound, but yer hope u guys find something 2 cure your boredom xox

  19. I really didn’t realize that people could be so bored when there is a hole world out there and many thing’s that you could be doing then sitting at a computer and crying about how bored you are to people you don’t even know.

    1. yes, we are bored.
      yes, theres a whole world out there.
      But cmon…. most of the people on this site are like 12 years old… and i bet you most of tem dont even have a passport. How can they go and explore at 12 years old? No money (or not enough anyway.), no car, no liscence, no job. How stupid can you get man, your just reminding the kids about doing something they cant do..Yeah we’d all love to go and explore the whole world, but sorry mate, were kids, we cant afford a plane, we cant drive a car, and we certainly cant walk to africa.So i think you should either shutup or suggest something thats actually possible…
      Oh and, im sat here bored 2, but im not crying about it.. get your facts right before you go and put a label on us all…

  20. Um the spelling. Its called texting. Anyway funny topic. The people who are criticizing the bored ppl state they are bored themselves. lol fucking hypocrites. Besides wats to do at 2am in morning? Insomnia sucks
