Make some White Russians.

Get ouma drunk. Get yourself drunk. Won’t cost you much either. Two bottles vodka, a bottle Kahlua and some milk. Plus minus R300 if you go easy on the milk. Now when last did you have a day’s fun reminiscing with ouma for R300?

Lego.

You’ll be surprised. I tripped over a pile of Lego the other day, sat down and had hours of fun. Built me a bullet proof battleship police car with three wheels and a chassis.

Type “thins to do when you’re bored” into Google.

And it spits out “Go for it”. Type “things to do” and this is what you get:

Use your secret mind power
(Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes)
Pick a passing by and try to use your mind power to command them do something, like drop their bag or knock into someone. The law of averages dictates that sooner or later one of your mind commands will come true, so you can convince yourself that you really have super human powers and waste even more time trying them out.

Completely useless. Everyone knows it takes 15 minutes to overpower someone mentally.

Buy the Daisy 617X BB gun.

The Daisy is powered by CO2, launches BBs at 485fps and the checkered, ambidextrous grip is the first of its kind on this calibre gun. This baby is a must if you want to blow the holiday blues – and scores of holidaymakers – right out the water.

The Daisy.

Still bored? Smoke a joint.
