I’m unemployed and that phone doesn’t ring, I have some much free time but I’m anti social… So I stay at home almost all day and only go out if I need to buy something or an interview comes up. Aside the house chores and videogames I don’t do anything else.

What you do when you have lots of free time?

Edit: I forgot I’m online studying for a driving license, but is so boring I forgot I was doing that.

    Kill a half hour working out and/or go for a jog. You don’t even need weight, just do bodyweight.

    Take up hiking, it is nearly free, you get sun and exercise. You can even take a trash bag with you and clean up litter.

    Find someone to stalk and murder.

    Fishing is a great and cheap waste of time and you get sun.

    Find an unsolved mystery in your area and work on solving it.

    Start collecting pinecones, cool rocks, or used syringes.

    Birdwatching can obliterate free-time and you might meet some widowed GILF to be your sugar momma.

    Go places and give them Google or yelp reviews, be derrainged in your writing style like Hunter S Thompson with a head injury.

    Take up meditation and have a false sense of superiority because you practice socially acceptable rotting with a calming mentally healthy spiritual guise.

    Yoga is a thing, I’m sure you can make yoga pants look great.

    Taxidermy roadkill armies don’t assemble themselves, you can even find a tabletop game event to unlease your army upon and meet new people. Worst case you learn about the criminal justice system and that will kill even more time.

    Befriend a murder of crows and receive their gifts.

      Excellent answers and I’d add -

      Baaa-ing at lambs and baby goats - they’re incredible vocal little guys

      Sticking googly eyes on things (not artwork or statues)

      Feeding ducks - one should always use canned peas because they sink slowly, creating a kind of “How low will it go” game

      Befriending geese - this is remarkably simple. Just walk past them every day and feed them a few dandelion leaves. Within a month or two you will have your new friends that you can pat on the head, and for some reason they show their affection by nibbling your shoes

      You have no idea how much I appreciated the slow lead in your comment. The entire thing is very high quality and I highly enjoyed reading whatever the fuck that was.
