I am always looking for new and different ways to waste time online. My recent favorite time-waster is Will Ferrell run comedy site, FunnyorDie.com. Ferrell along with Adam McKay started the site because “they had nothing better to do.” Videos posted are made by Ferrell and McKay along with user submitted clips. You may have seen the classic “The Landlord” which features McKay’s 2 year old daughter Pearl as a disgruntled landlord verbally abusing Will Ferrell.

The men behind FunnyorDie made my week today when they announced that Judd Apatow would be jumping on board to help create videos. Oh the sheer joy that ran through me when I heard this. I’m the girl who has seen”The 40 Year old virgin” more times than I can count, and I have enormous crush on Seth Rogan in all his hairy dorkdom. Word is Rogan will be making a few appearances in Apatow directed clips.

Not even a month into my senior year of college and I’ve already skipped two classes, started my homework for all of them the night before or the morning of class, and most impressively, have yet to even open the textbook for one class. It looks like this will be my finest year of procrastination yet.

My procrastination however, is actually quite productive in its own way.

I don’t simply lounge around on the couch and troll Facebook to see what my best friend from elementary school is up to these days. I mean of course I do that too, but you’d be surprised at how effective your time-wasting can actually be, aside from effectively lowering your GPA. Check out these sites next time you’re procrastinating, which will likely be within in the next 24 hours:
