Sporcle

There are a lot of great time wasters out there. I have always been a fan of Text Twist. Games like this are great for procrastinating on your own, or you can do it with a few people around and have people yell stuff out. I was recently made aware of another website, sporcle.com. Sporcle games are all about filling in the lists. "The Office characters", "US Presidents" or "Pixar Movies" are a couple. There are all sorts of categories - TV, Sports, Gaming, Politics, Geography, Movies, and on and on.

The site is pretty addicting for some, so be warned. If you wanna try your hand, here's a list of some of my favorites, and some awesome points for completing them

To many, the idea of a mentally stimulating time waster seems contradictory and unwelcome. And don't get me wrong, I have a great time cutting ice to make vikings fall into ships too. But Sporcle's a good time too, just thought I would share.
