Ten Best Random Things to Relieve Boredom

These items are so simple and so readily available.

Paper Clip

This random object can amuses someone from minutes to hours bending and poking away with it is rather fun when there is absolutely nothing to do.

Rubber Band

Do you ever remember flicking one of these around for well over ten minutes just because you could? Well, that's why it is on this list it can also be used in conjunction with many other objects to keep you occupied for hours on end.

A Piece of Paper

Is there anything you haven't thought about doing with a piece of paper? I mean, you even fold it into cranes. A simple piece of paper even seems to make an effective football for some reason. This is indeed a random object that will keep your attention.

Tweezers

I don't know about you but when you are bored enough pinching everything in site with a good pair of tweezers can keep me occupied for many many minutes. These are more then random and just fun enough.

A Piece of String

Is it not one of your favorite things? Well it sure does hit the spot when there is absolutely nothing else to do. They are so wavy and random, mmmmm fun.

Wire

The bendyness of wire is a bit more then fun when you are bored. You can make it into anything, kinda. Well it makes a nice ring or necklace or something, but still random and fun!

A #2 Pencil

Ever sit there for three hours throwing your pencil at the ceiling wondering if it will stick? Well I sure as hell have! There are also a number of other applications for this boredom reliever. Best when used with other boredom relievers.

Bubble Wrap

Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.Pop.....Now I know you know why this is here.

A Large Cardboard Box

Perhaps this is where you got the bubble wrap from but, who needs bubble wrap when you have a cardboard spaceship! Vroom Vroom to the moon!

Something Sharp

Anything sharp really...like have you ever sat at your desk and tried to cut it in half with a laminated business card? Or sat near a balloon with anything sharp without almost dieing trying not to blow it up in front of someone's face...point made.
