Want To Waste Time? These Websites Are Designed To Help You Do Exactly That

Some websites offer valuable information. Some keep us up to date with the news. Some make us laugh. Then there are websites that are created --- just because. They are designed because why the hell not! As if there weren't enough distractions in the world, there are these websites born out of random ideas that people have had that add to the sum of distractions in the world. They may or may not be useful, but they are guaranteed to help you waste time if you wish to do so.

Official unofficial Obama video robot

You type in what you want the former POTUS to say. This website will cull out moments from his speeches and string them together to get him to ‘say’ what you want.

A Soft Murmur

Like the sound of a gently crackling fire? The wind? Rain? Birds, a coffee shop or just white noise? Get it all here – for as long as you want. Just turn up the volume of the murmur you like.

Da font

Want fonts? Get fonts. Cartoon, distorted, horror, retro, foreign look, techno, gothic, alien, army, music… there are many, many options. Type in your text, download for personal use. That is it!

Invisible cow

Remember that old hot & cold game? This is the web version of it. Hover the pointer over the screen, a voice will tell you whether you're hot or cold and then you find the cow, click! Get 5 points, unlock a new animal. Silly waste of time? Completely.

Pointer pointer

Random images will appear in accordance with the location of your pointer. Each time there will be someone pointing to the pointer. Doesn’t make sense? Well, it isn't very sensible. But it is fun.

Shut up and take my money

Ugly Christmas sweater. Baby Yoda car decal. Booze filled Christmas tree ornaments. It’s a shopping website with everything that you're never going to need but want instantly: great way to waste time (browsing) and money (inevitably ending up with a bunch of useless stuff).

Weave silk

Click and randomly move the cursor around. You get pretty images like these. Why? Because it's there.

Instructables

People from the do-it-yourself community share their projects – cooking, craft, workshop, outdoors and teaching projects and more. Beware though – this may go beyond mere time wastage; you may well end up making something useful!

What should I read next?

This website asks you to enter a book and based on this, it will give you recommendations for what to read next. This one may also not be a complete waste of time, because I maintain that no reading is completely useless.

Want more?

Theuselessweb.com is a website that offers access to more useless websites. Koalas to the max, endless horse, eel slap, tiny tuba, the mango that does nothing…and more useless stuff. Go get it.
