Got a little extra time on your hands? So do most of us. That can feel great or terrible, depending on the day. Sometimes it’s hard to put that feeling into words, but these folks on Twitter did a pretty good job of it.
Enjoy these 12 tweets about having nothing to do while you’ve got nothing to do!
12. Breakdown
Having robust mental health is just kinda braggy about this point.
i don’t trust anybody who hasn’t had a mental breakdown during quarantine

11. Gotta get down on Friday
What comes next? We don’t know. There’s just no way to know.
quarantine has every day feeling like a friday to me. there’s some work to be done but there’s also that sense of mystery and lawlessness in the air

Fat…uh…finds a way.
"Stop eating out. Cook at home and you'll lose weight."

9. From underwear to underWHY?
The great liberation is coming.
the longer this goes on the harder it will be to return to a society where pants and bras are required

8. Anti-anti-social
Let’s just miss each other.

My friends: let’s video call
Me: no— B O L L O C K S (@itsallbollocks) April 27, 2020
7. Cancel culture
I guess we could technically just keep doing this?

6. The walking dumb
I dunno man, I totally saw this youtube video that said zombies were a hoax.
Turns out a major component every zombie movie was missing was a large contingent of people just straight up refusing to admit that a zombie apocalypse was happening.

5. No pressure
Who are we trying to impress?
We haven’t panic cleaned for visitors in a while and it shows.

4. Piece of cake
Happy trip around the sun to you, enjoy your germ pastry.
Pretty wild how we used to eat cake after someone had just blown air from their mouth onto it

3. Wasting away in Margaritaville
Deliver us from evil.
To-go margaritas are the only good thing to come out of quarantine
— Women Who Love Wine (@wwlwine) April 28, 2020
2. Highly stimulating
Not all heroes wear pants.
“Wasting” my money on take out because I’m lazy? I think you mean “stimulating the local economy” and a “hometown hero”

1. Baking bad
First they came for the toilet paper…
Appears we’ve stopped panic buying toilet paper and the entire country is now baking ?. pic.twitter.com/9OZbmCFrLM

That last one really got me because literally as I’m writing this my roommate is in the kitchen trying to bake for pretty much the first time in his life. It makes me wonder what ill-fated pastime we’ll all move onto next and deplete national supplies for. Sewing? Woodcarving? Macaroni art?
What do you think will be the next big trend in boredom-killing?
