Boredom Or rather interesting ways to conteract it while working in a school computer room. As a past prefect of said place, much of this article at Something Awful resonates:
"My favorite anti-boredom activity is carefully rearranging my keyboard. On the average keyboard, with a little work, you can pry pretty much any key loose and simply pop them back in. The wonderful catch is that you don't have to pop them back into their original location, which means all sorts of wonderful things can happen, including alphabetizing your keyboard and spelling out words ... Spelling out things like "you will die at 12:00" and "help trapped in keyboard factory" are a lot of fun if you can get a hold of the letters.
Mostly the kids I was looking after would sit around scanning in pictures of Jet from Gladiators; and I was supposed to have gone to a good school with many intelligent kids.
