I'm so bored. It's Friday. My brain has already gone home for the weekend. And I can't concentrate at work.

There are not enough mindless threads on EF and facebook to keep my hamster wheel spinning for the last couple of hours. :(

It wasn't intended to alleviate your boredom, but to illustrate our mortal turmoil on the never ending treadmill of life, to which you have already eluded.

Re: Friday boredom

I think us guys need to start a Fight Club or something stupid. This is no way to live one's life.

We're trying to find waste 2 hours of life, whereas we should be short of time to do stuff in life.

another question. what animals can humans kill in a fight (without weapons)?

i guess domestic cats are easy. not sure about dogs though. i guess it depends on the breed.

That thing, if (a big IF) it survives the cold, it will not be able to penetrate the polarbear's skin/fur.

Re: Friday boredom

Well dogs have a vein in between the front legs so technically if you can prise the front legs in a 90 degree angle without getting bitten you can win.

However a St Bernard could be a bit hardcore.

I'd slap a badger personally :msngrin:
