I am off work next week which means I can’t really start anything but I am stuck here babysitting a database restore.

Can anybody think of ways for me to entertain myself?

I recently discovered the Fine Bros youtube channel. They get groups of kids or teenagers or the elderly to watch youtube videos and then talk to them about it. I enjoy the elderly videos the most. Their reactions crack me up.

All videos are SFW.

Youtubers react to Fresh Prince reunion.

Elders react to Happy tree Friends.

• Do you already have next week scheduled or are you just off of work? If the latter, look up activities to do.  
• Solitaire  
• Look up (particularly raunchy fetish) porn…from someone else’s computer, of course. You’ll be out when the ‘fit hits the shan’.

Did anyone else think about the thrill kill incident this week or must I dwell alone in my shame?

I’m rather fond of the [Useful Notes](http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/UsefulNotes) section of TVTropes. It can be entertaining, occupy your time, and you can learn something.
