O Lord the internet is down ....
The OFB headquarters had no internet until 15minutes before closing time(yesterday)...so the day was quite productive for the office.
On that note we found a list of things to do when the internet is down , a reflex test and the Maxim(UK) 2006 Calendar...
Couple of things to keep one busy when the internet is down:
1. Try to swallow your tongue (Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes) :There's not much to say about this one. It is possible.
2. Make prank phone calls (Amusement Potential: 20-60 minutes) :Very entertaining, but requires discipline. Remember - vulgarities don't make a call funny, but getting the other person to believe a ridiculous story will. Try seeing if you can get them to make noises to 'test' the line.
3. Call McDonalds with weird complaints about their food.
4. Try and sound Welsh (Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes) :The key to sounding Welsh is to make sure that your voice goes up at the end of the sentence, so that everything sounds like a question. Throw in a superfluous 'isn't it?' at the end of everything you say and you're halfway there. Isn't it?
5. Have a water drinking contest (Amusement Potential: 5-10 minutes) :While the competition is fun, you probably won't feel too good afterwards. To give your event an old western theme, slam the cups upside down on the tables after you have emptied them.
6. Stare at the back of someone's head until they turn around (Amusement Potential: 2-5 minutes) :This works on the "I have the feeling I'm being watched" principle. Conduct an experiment-does this really work?
7. Have a "Who is less competitive" competition wonder (Amusement Potential: 1-3 minutes) :Trying to win at this will make you lose. Trying to lose makes you win which makes you lose. Not trying at all makes you lose which makes you win which makes you lose.
8. Pour water in hand, make sneeze noise, throw water on back of person's neck (Amusement Potential: 5-15 minutes) : Always a good gag. For an even bigger reaction out of the person, act like you're not sorry at all for what they think you did. Comment instead on how big that sneeze was or about how there was a lot of mucus in that one.
