So what be yer time killer or what be yer favorite procrastinatin' activity? Short sweet and to the point. me get distracted very easily and indulge in other articles or books that have NOTHin' to do wit my classes. In fact, if me don't shut off my phone, hide the clock, limit any possible sudden noise (e.g. a SnapChat),put some white noise on, and stare at a blank screen on notepad( me like to retype when me am tryin' to study), me will eventually end up goofin' off.

be 'yerkin off too damn much

me thinks dat turtle internet is good for me
 
I suppose this website. No Facebook/Tumblr/Instagrams/Vines/What-have-you. I have a twitter specifically for tweeting about neurology, and that's about it. The only trace of me on Facebook is the page for my non-profit. That said, I always multi-task while on here (Yay Anki)
 
YouTube, games (phone or computer), fiction, food, procrastinating (and not even remember what has happened for the last two hours)

the only thing being here did is made me feel like i am only one without 100,000,000 hours of ECs and shadowing. It feels like everyone here saved the country from communism and went back in time to kill Hitler all while having time to study for 23 hours of the day while single handedly punching cancer in the face.

I went back in time to kill cancer and punched Hitler in the face, but close enough.
 
League of Legends.

I've been uninstalling it a lot recently though.
 
My biggest distractions/time sinks: this website (WW in particular can really be time-intensive), having a good time with my friends, vidya (currently doing BF4, Killing Floor, and Deus Ex: Human Revolution), keeping up on the news, cracked.com, and writing for my Pathfinder campaign. Oh yeah, and work. Work absolutely obliterates my weekends.
 
SDN (especially since I have the mobile app), Facebook, Instagram, Yahoo news (basically celebrity gossip half the time), Yelp (looking for new places to eat at), baking.

I tried using an extension on my browser to limit my time on social media but it didn't work because I removed the extension within the a few days.
 
Obviously sdn, I eat and breathe sdn, oops and am even in class now supposed to pay attention. FML
 
Hockey related stuff, like reading articles/blog posts, watching games/highlights, scanning the box scores, etc. Also for football and occasionally baseball.

Other than that, the usual stuff like Facebook, Twitter, humor sites, a little bit of YouTube. My roommate has a PS4 here but I haven't played it in two months, mostly because he got Ghosts for me and I can't stand it. Man, I'm so glad I left my PS3 with Modern Warfare 2/3 back home, my grades would be in the gutter otherwise.
