Go Live With Melissa Villasenor, Have a Time With Harry Styles, Maroon 5 and Shania Twain at the AAC, Welcome Home Leon Bridges or Throw a Bad Ass Axe.

If you’re anything like New York Magazine contributor Dan Nosowitz, the older you get, the more difficult it becomes to find ways to waste time on the internet.

He writes: “And then, one day, I think in 2013, Twitter and Facebook were not really very fun anymore. And worse, the fun things they had supplanted were never coming back. Forums were depopulated; blogs were shut down. Twitter, one agent of their death, became completely worthless: a water-drop-torture feed of performative outrage, self-promotion, and discussion of Twitter itself. Facebook had become, well … you’ve been on Facebook.”

It’s just not fun anymore.

But, off the internet, there are some real world things to do that are still fun. Here is a list of some of them. Never mind the fact that you have to jump on the boring ol’ internet for a second to peruse it.
