Ok seriously, things I consider a waste of time....

- waiting in a checkout line
- waiting at a drive-thru
- waiting for car to be done at the shop
- trying to argue a point in the bible discussion forum (this should probably be #1)
- trying to find a parking spot at walmart or costco
- trying to convert an atheist
- trying to lose weight :p
- trying to attract a woman

Driving around (and around and around and AROUND) for ten minutes to find a parking spot that saves two minutes of walking.

I think believing that you have to be "productive" every moment is a waste of time. :rolleyes:

I only feel as if something is a waste of time if I'm using whatever the activity is to put off doing something more important. And, theoretically, that could be any activity. If I ride my bike instead of doing laundry, I can look "disciplined" to people who are like, "Wow...you worked out on such a hot day," but I know in my heart I was just being avoidant.

People actually need "down time" to be creative. I'm a huge fan of creativity. Pursuing something creative is actually beneficial to everyone. So, having the time to try (and fail) at a recipe, or to take on a home improvement project that requires three trips to the hardware store, or just fooling around with the guitar and practicing various riffs...all of these can rejuvenate us.

Honestly, I don't have time to be productive every moment. My calendar is booked with some serious frivolity.
